Here’s some info on her designs: In 1934 Mary Ann Deweese entered the California clothing industry by designing for Los Angles Knitting Mills. She left to design sportswear for 3 years for Sandeez, then spent twelve years as head designer for Catalina, where she received world-wide acclaim as a designer. She worked with top studio designers on suits for the stars and for many years designed the swimsuits worn in the Miss America Competitions. Having reached peaked success with Catalina she decided to launch her own company in 1951, called "DeWeese Designs," turning out high-fashion swimsuits and sundresses. In 1961 she designed the official U.S. team suits for the World Water Team Championships and the Olympics in 1960. The DeWeese Design label lasted until at least 1984.
