Margit Brandt Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 24, 2011.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) - Fashion icon Margit Brandt, whose simple cuts and 1960s miniskirts marked one of the first international breakthroughs for Danish designs, has died. She was 66.

Margit Brandt brand manager Maria Stubben told The Associated Press Monday that the Denmark-born designer died earlier in the day following a long fight against lung disease.

Brandt presented the first collection of her brand B-age in 1965. The short and close-fitted garments stood out from other designs of the time and B-age stores were quickly opened in Paris, Barcelona, Tokyo, San Francisco, New York and London.

The designer is survived by her husband Erik Brandt and their two daughters, Emilie and Julie.

Funeral arrangements weren't immediately known.

To the family of Margit Brandt,

May you find comfort in knowing that our Creator promises that our loved ones who are sleeping will live! Isaiah 26:19. He also promises that their flesh will become fresher than in youth and that our loved ones will return to their youthful vigor! Job 33:25. What a joyful time this will be! These promises are true our Creator cannot lie. Titus 1:2

To the family of Margit Brandt,
My deepest condolences goes out to you. It is never easy to say good bye to someone we love in death, but we can take comfort to know that soon those asleep in death will hear his voice and awaken. Yes soon not only will we be able to see our loved one again but we will never have to worry about them or anyone else we love not only dying but getting sick. But until that time you can still look to our heavenly father for comfort and he will sustain you.

We send our condolences to the family of Margit. It is the desire of God to awaken the dead to life on a paradise earth. That time is yet future. He can awaken those who have died just as surely as you can awaken a person from sleep.---Stone Mountain, GA

Please accept my sincere condolences. The signs of the times tell us that the Lord is coming soon. Take comfort in that.

I am Margit's age and was not aware of her achievements in fashion design at such a young age. I am thankful to her for all the joy and encouragement she helped provide.

As a young man I was under much stress to support myself and aging mother while pusuing my education.

Seeing adorable young women in close fitting, no nonsense miniskirts made my day, nearly every day.

To this day I appreciate beauty and elegance.

May the God of all comfort, comfort the family, friends, and fans of Margit Brandt. Like the wise man Job, she can say "You will call, and I myself shall answer you. For the work of your hands you will have a yearning." What a wonderful time it will be when she has the opportunity to design cloths for God and not man.
