Vintage MM Morris Moskowitz Clutch Evening Bag Black Satin Rhinestone Pleated

Vintage MM Morris Moskowitz Clutch Evening Bag Black Satin Rhinestone Pleated Superb craftsmanship from Mid-Century fashion designer, Morris Moskowitz. Simple, elegant, timeless. 9.5" x 5.5" Excellent vintage condition; a classic and enduring piece. Morris Moskowitz was featured in "VETERANS OF THE INDUSTRY" in the June 1961 issue of "Handbags & Accessories," page 76: "MM" is the trademark. Morris Moskowitz is the man. Both have the same identity in the handbag industry — high quality, fashion-wise fabric handbags. Morris is a perfectionist and insists that every handbag bearing the "MM" label must leave the house with the same high degree of excellence that is associated with a work of art. One of the most interesting things about this impeccably dressed and well-groomed man is his sentimental eye for old-world attention to quality. Morris has been the recipient of many honors and awards for his style leadership in the fashion field. He received the Schiffli Fashion Award in 1957, the I960 Lord and Taylor Award for creative contributions by American designers and was selected by Hutzler Bros, for special commendation.
