ABOUT CAROLE LITTLE Carole Little was an influential Los Angeles-based fashion brand founded in 1974 by designer Carole Little and her business partner (and later husband) Leonard Rabinowitz. It revolutionized womenswear by providing stylish, affordable "better" apparel tailored for working women. Brand Highlights: The "Boyfriend" Blouse: The brand first gained massive popularity in the mid-1970s for introducing a loose-fitting, oversized shirt with epaulets and pockets. It became a wardrobe staple for working women and was notably worn by Lauren Hutton on a People magazine cover. Design Aesthetic: Known for "California casual chic," the brand specialized in vibrant, mixed floral and geometric prints, maxi skirts, and deconstructed two-piece dresses. Commercial Success: At its height in the early 1990s, Carole Little Inc. grew into a $375 million wholesale enterprise that employed 1,200 people. The brand name was sold, and production ceased entirely in the 2000s.
