Gunther Jaeckel Explained

Gunther Jaeckel is a famous New York City furrier. In 1949, the two old-line furriers Gunther & Sons Inc. and Jaeckel Inc. merged into Gunther Jaeckel to widen their product line beyond furs to ladies’ dresses and suits.[1]

Gunther Jaeckel purchased Adrian’s entire spring 1948[2] [3] collection, which was sold in its store at 10 East 57th Street.[4] In 1959 Walter Hoving, the owner of Bonwit Teller and Tiffany & Co took control of Gunther Jaeckel.[5] [6] At that time in April 1961 Andy Warhol was charged by Bonwit Teller to do the window display for Gunther Jaeckel.[7] [8] [9] Among her famous clients and fan of Gunther Jaeckel's furs was Marilyn Monroe.[10] [11]
