On January 9, 2015, Dutch couturier Frans Molenaar has passed away at the age of 74. Frans Molenaar was the last of the “old school” generation of Dutch couturiers.
Many, many moons ago Mr Molenaar was one of Mimi Berlin’s first cliënts.
We will always remember Mr Molenaar both for his designs and his personality, also for giving us a break when we were starting out in fashion design.
