Short Biography
Rudolf "Rudi" Gernreich (August 8, 1922 – April 21, 1985) was an Austrian-born gay Jewish American fashion designer whose avant-garde clothing designs are generally regarded as the most innovative and dynamic fashion of the 1960s. He purposefully used fashion design as a social statement to advance sexual freedom, producing clothes that followed the natural form of the female body, freeing them from the constraints of high fashion.
