Ossie was a major player in the 1960′s, designing stage costumes for Twiggy,Liza Minnelli,  the Beatles, Mick Jagger, and Marianne Faithfull. British designer Avsh Alom Gur whose resume includes working at Donna Karan and Chloe, will head the Ossie Clark revival.

In 1971 Bianca Jagger’s summoned Ossie Clark to design her wedding attire to Mick Jagger. In a 1972 performance at Madison Square Garden Mick Jagger wore a blue sequined Ossie jumpsuit. Jagger in the early 70′s owned no less than ten Ossie Clark jumpsuits.

Businessman Marc Worth has funded the labels revival. Worth in 1997 founded the Worth Global Style Network.

A Vintage 1970′s Ossie Clark Maxi Dress will set you back $400 based on condition. The revival ware pricing is yet to be determined.
