One of the most successful designers of all time, Bill Blass won numerous awards, and achieved great fame thanks to the innovation and attention to detail that he put into his creations. He had the remarkable ability to create a unique blend of textures that would flatter the wearer, and be guaranteed to turn heads.
Bill Blass entered the fashion world in 1946, at the age of 24 and quickly rose through the ranks of the industry to take control of the Maurice Rentner label in 1959. He then renamed the label as Bill Blass, and used to promote his unique design ethic that put wear-ability on the same level as style, and created easy to wear outfits that were immediately popular with all people who tried them.
One of Bill Blass’ great passions throughout his life was collecting antiques, and he used them as inspiration for many of his most important collections. It was the most important thing for Bill Blass to produce clothes that his clients could live with and enjoy completely, rather than just having them as something to be looked at.
Bill Blass expanded his empire aggressively throughout his life, and released a line of perfumes that took the wear-ability clothing lines and applied them to fragrances. Bill Blass perfumes and colognes were designed and blended to combine absolute subtlety with daring scents that can be worn at any time and enjoyed by the wearer and the people around them.
Even though he died in 2002, the ethics of Bill Blass live on in the creations of his label. The idea of fashion that is as wearable as possible while still retaining the cutting edge attention to detail and using the finest materials possible to ensure quality and convenience at the same time.
The upshot of Bill Blass’ design ethic has been the timeless quality of his clothing. Lines that he introduced in the 1950s were still in production in the 1990s, and looked just as up to date then as they had when they were first released. Whether you choose a vintage Bill Blass suit, or try a sample from the Bill Blass perfume collection, one thing is certain, that you will find his products to your taste no matter what your taste is.
