Former assistant to Andy Warhol at the Factory. Start year is not precisely published ('late 1970s' per Interview and WWD). The February 2001 acquisition said she would stay as creative director, but Gucci Group installed Tomas Maier on 19 June 2001; her exact final day is not published. The intrecciato clutch in American Gigolo (1980) falls in her period, but sources do not credit her with designing it.
