History of Mary McFadden: Renowned for her exotic designs, Mary McFadden embarked on her fashion journey in 1973, captivating patrons with hand-painted silk dresses at Bendel's. In 1975, she patented a groundbreaking pleating technique, resulting in a permanent pleating effect achieved with polyester. This innovative fabric, resembling Fortuny's creations, became her hallmark. While her unexpected closure in 2003 marked the end of an era, Mary McFadden's legacy continues to resonate in the world of fashion.
