Muriel King
The American designer Muriel King had an interesting and varied career in fashion, beginning in the 1920s as an illustrator for Bonwit Teller, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Berley Studios, a subscription service that sold drawings of the latest Paris fashions to manufacturers. By the mid-1930s, she worked primarily as a couturière with a private clientele, but also designed ready-to-wear and theatrical costumes for Broadway and Hollywood-most notably for the actresses Katherine Hepburn and Ginger Rogers. Muriel King was recognized by Lord & Taylor as part of their "American Fashion for American Women" campaign in 1932.
