Ann Margaret Lanchester
Ann Margaret Lanchester (fl. 1802 – fl. 1810), was a British fashion merchant and fashion designer. She was a leading figure within the British fashion industry and referred to as 'The Bonaparte of her day' in the contemporary The Complete Book of Trades.[1] She made regular trips to Paris to study fashion, published the exclusive fashion magazine Le Miroir de la Mode for the British nobility, where she illustrated the contemporary fashion through her own dress models, which she sold in her shop in New Bond Street in London (in 1806 moved to St James's Street).
