Michael Vollbracht was an artist, illustrator, and fashion designer working primarily during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Though he designed collections under his eponymous label, Michaele Vollbracht, he began his fashion design career at Geoffrey Beene and led the Bill Blass fashion house during the early 2000s. Iris Apfel referred to Vollbracht as a 'Very dear friend and a Renaissance man.'
