Some of his work... these were called the "Butterfly" gowns:

Oh.. and these are just gorgeous. I loved when he dressed a group and had each gown different, yet all with the same basic design.

Thanks. I hadn't heard of him. This is great stuff.

Thanks for sharing, I wasn't familiar with him either. I am familiar with Anna Nateece who designed Liberace's furs.
