Michael Simon
Michael Simon has been called the father of ugly Christmas sweaters. Back in 1977, Simon was a dance student living in East Village, NYC. To earn some money, he started making leggings for his fellow dancers. Soon he branched out to make sweaters out of 50s deadstock yarns in neon colors. Local boutiques fell in love with Simon's fun and unique sweaters and he became a phenomenon.
Simon has made a sweater for every possible theme in the world: ladybugs, flamingos, perfume bottles, dogs, etc. Today Simon's sweaters are collectible art pieces.
