We are pleased to be handling the collection of Léon Bing, former muse and model to the famed designer Rudi Gernreich, known for his geometric pattern knit dresses and topless bathing suits.

Bing’s collection tells a wonderful story of her work with Rudi Gernreich. Today Bing is more notably known for her journalism, more specifically her books Do or Die, a national best seller, and Swans and Pistols, a memoir of her life as an iconic model turned journalist and mother.
