In 1909, the Wiener Werkstätte appointed the artist Eduard Josef Wimmer-Wisgrill as head of the fashion department. Wimmer, who was described as the “Paul Poiret of the Viennese”, had a decisive influence on Viennese fashion and that of the Wiener Werkstätte and made it internationally famous. He headed the fashion department until 1922, Wimmer-Wisgrill gave decisive impetus to individual clothing and artistically revolutionised women’s fashion at the Wiener Werkstätte in the 1920s. From 1923 to 1925, he was head of the fashion class at the Art Institute of Chicago. His designs were represented at the Werkbund exhibition in Cologne in 1914 and at the large Austrian Werkbund exhibition in Vienna in 1930.
