Florida Estate Vintage Fashion & Jewelry

This vibrant and remarkable New England born woman epitomized the term “self-made.” Although orphaned at a young age, in every way she sought to improve herself through dedication, education and hard work. As a teenager she developed a passion for high couture and design, and often created wardrobe pieces such as her “famous” shoes made from multi-colored ribbons and cardboard. She attended college at night after working a full-time job, snow skied at a time when lifts were non-existent, and saved money to take golf lessons at the local country club. Upon marrying the golf pro, they traveled the country while he played the PGA golf circuit with colleagues such as Sam Snead. During the war and post-war years her husband flew large commercial aircraft while she commuted from the east coast to world-famous Hollywood where she enjoyed her career as a sought-after model in the fashion world and managed her young daughter’s career in major motion pictures. Later she and her husband moved to glamorous Miami, FL where she continued to grow her family as well as pursue her love for design and collecting antiques. During the 60s, 70s and 80s she had a thriving business as an interior designer while owning and operating her own antique store. A professional shopper with an incredible eye for detail and color, she never stepped out without looking like a “million bucks” until the day she was called Home. The items in this auction span the many decades of her life.
