Lot Description

Four Lilli Ann Jackets, 1960s 


This lot contains four jackets.

Founded by Adolph Schuman in 1934, the San Francisco-based label was named for the proprietor’s wife, Lillian Brown. Lilli Ann was founded thanks to an $800 loan, enabling Schuman to transition from wholesale fashion to creating his own line of womenswear. Schuman developed key partnerships with Jean Wright and Billie Dugan, young women who began as models for the brand, and later served as pattern cutters and lead designers. Savvy in his dealings, Schuman began purchasing large quantities of fine fabrics from small European textile mills in the 1950s, helping to revitalize the French and Italian textile industries which had been decimated by the Second World War.
