Whimsical in detail, exuberant in spirit and perhaps a bit over the top, Betsey Johnson's designs have entertained women since her eponymous label began in 1978. Soon thereafter, she opened her first retail store in SoHo, and today she has boutiques nationwide and in London, with plans for future European openings. In 1999, the CFDA presented her with the first-ever Timeless Talent award, and in 2002 Johnson was honored with an induction to the Fashion Walk of Fame, on Seventh Avenue in New York. Both of these awards are testaments to Johnson's one-of-a-kind flair, which has influenced scores of other designers working today.
