1941 Sketches, Irene at Bullocks
Many thanks to Christian for sharing these lovely sketches.
They are from 1941 when Irene still had her own label at Bullock’s. Two are signed by Adele Balken, who was her sketch artist at the time.

About Irene
Irene is my grand-aunt, and admired for her work in women's fashion and Hollywood costume design. Her talent as a successful clothing designer in Los Angeles led to her long career as a costume designer for many great films in Hollywood.. until her sudden death in 1962. I hope you enjoy your visit.. ~ Karlyn
Amazing to see those sketches, beautiful and timeless designs. Were any gowns created from the sketches?
