Lola Prusac
Lola Prusac (18 January 1895 – 29 October 1985) was a Polish-born French fashion designer noted for her inventive and original way of dressing,[1] worked for Hermès in Paris between 1925 and 1935.[2] She was first "with the unusual position of counselor for colors",[3] then as a modéliste (designer).[4] At Hermès she designed in 1929 their first women collection,[5] silk squares,.[6] and in the early 1930s bags with geometric inlays inspired by the Dutch painter Mondrian.[7] In 1936, she founded her own fashion house,[8] specialising in "sport-tricot" (casual knits) clothes.[9] For this reason, though she had been a member since 1942, the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture denied her in 1952 the "Couture-Création" status.[9][10]
In 1978, Lola Prusac received an aiguille d'or (golden needle), a French award sometimes granted together with the more prestigious dé d'or (golden thimble).[11][full citation needed].
