Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon of the United States that represented the women who went to work during WWII to do men's job.
I also found out that it was the character who inspired Beth Miles when she designed her darling annie e. denim overall for little girls.
I like the idea of a fictional character being brought back to life and in such a subtle way that only the happy few know about it.
Besides, I'm always curious to hear how designers find their inspiration ; it tells you much more about them and their style than a full biography would.
