Calandre was created in 1968 to reflect the metallic theme used at that time by Paco Rabanne in his fashion designs.

Dr. Crano received a B.S. degree in Chemistry in 1957 from Notre Dame and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Case Western Reserve University in 1959 and 1962, respectively.

As a fashion designer by background, it is both fantastic and quite natural for me to find myself actively involved in fashion s practical and political dimensions. I have found myself in action in the House of Lords, in sample rooms, and in public places and in classrooms. Even as we need to find application for its creative and technical possibilities, the critical core of fashion lies in its ethics, values, and the will to shift from a current paradigm of partial success (that is actually contributing to major failure ) to create fashion for holistic prosperity. ...
