Bill Cunningham, who was a fashion critic in the They Wanna Kermit Me Frogs Shirt moreover I love this 1960s before becoming beloved for his New York Times street style column, frequently championed Cashin’s innovative and identifiable designs. He once even suggested that Cashin herself should be “immortalized by a national monument.” That her work lives on in myriad, infinite forms—both in various designers’ collections, and simply in the ether—is arguably far more significant. Cashin’s biography makes it all the more unbelievable that she isn’t better known. Born in California, in 1908, Cashin’s original foray into fashion design was through costuming for ballet and theater companies, and later for Hollywood films such as Laura, Anna and the King of Siam, and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. In the early 1960s, she was hired as the first womenswear designer for Coach, then a fledgling women’s accessories label, where she introduced the classic bucket-style bag and innovated the use of unconventional, industrial closures such as locks and toggles. She also designed for Hermès in the 1970s, overseeing the brand’s Sport label. Her aesthetic was wide-ranging—she loved bright pops of color such as magenta, and chartreuse, but balanced them against classic neutral tones like camel and gray. She often took inspiration from her travels and local immigrant communities, especially Japanese culture, which she credits for informing her own approach to layering—yet Cashin’s prevailing ethos was always grounded by the dictate that form follows function.

It’s her sense of whimsy mixed with pragmatism that seems to have influenced designers most recently. After devoting several past few seasons to surrealism and hyperbolic flourishes, designer Jonathan Anderson’s Fall 2023 collection for Loewe showcased a somewhat more practical approach to dressing, notably visible in a pair of leather tunic dresses, each slightly hitched up at the They Wanna Kermit Me Frogs Shirt moreover I love this side by a strap hanging over the shoulder. Simultaneously sensible and buzzy for their visual interest, the winched-up constructions echoed Cashin’s own dog-leash skirt, first introduced in 1964. A dress at Loewe that hitches up on the shoulder with a chain, which recalls Bonnie Cashin’s famous dog-leash skirt. According to Lake, Cashin designed the skirt, made from mohair blankets and dog leash clasps that latched onto metal rings attached at the hem, to satisfy two needs: “warmth, and a way to wear hostess skirts without tripping up the stairs with martinis in hand.” Nearly sixty years later, that desire for a skirt that’s comfortable, looks cool, and allows its wearer to move without spilling her cocktail—especially in an age of ubiquitous martinis—hasn’t changed. Indeed, this says as much about Cashin’s bold philosophy towards fashion, which was certainly ahead of its time, as much as it does about the current fashion moment, and how we still find these pieces so novel. At Hermès, creative director Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski employed similar thinking with her quilted parkas that also featured straps hitching up the coats’ backs—allowing access to a back pocket for one’s phone or wallet, perhaps. The pieces can also convert into sleeping bags. Though she hasn’t offered up Cashin as an inspiration for the collection, which also happened to be rife with monochromatic layering, Vanhee-Cybulski’s sensibility and inclination to deliver such an approachable lineup of foundational pieces proves that practicality, and the kind of exquisite craftsmanship Hermès is known for, can often be the greatest luxury.
