Jacobs, 94, died Dec. 21 at her New York City apartment.
Glass-ceiling-breaking retail executive Rosalind Gersten Jacobs also forged inroads in the world of Surrealist art.
Jacobs was close friends with Man Ray and his wife, Juliet, for decades. Regardless of which hotel she was staying at in Paris, she quickly figured out how to walk to the artist’s impoverished studio on the Right Bank. As a young woman, Jacobs posed for Man Ray, when he was experimenting with Polaroids — a few of those images are part of The Centre Pompidou’s permanent collection.
“Roz had a great eye and she could really choose well. It was brilliant. Visiting her apartment in New York was an absolute treat because I would see things that I might have last seen in Man Ray’s studio. It was a beautifully appointed apartment crammed with art treasures,” he added. The art-fashion conversation was somewhat of a give-and–take with the Surrealists, according to Jacobs, who once told WWD, “Man Ray would have been a good reporter because he kept asking questions about fashion. The artists loved retailing and had a tremendous interest in merchandising and fashion. They wanted to know what we were seeing in fashion.”
