Biography

Agnès-Drécoll was a French fashion house formed by the 1931 merger of Maison Agnès, an undergarment and cloak specialist and the dressmaking firm Drécoll, which was first established in Vienna and, later, Paris, under the direction of Mme. and M. Besançon de Wagner. The Besançon de Wagners' daughter, Marguerite, got her start in fashion working for them and later established her own couture house, Maggy Rouff.
