In 2018, Rosenberg began to work in filmography, first designing costumes in the Sam Irvin film Engaged to a Psycho [vi]. She has since worked on nine other movies, and is married with three children.
Early life and education
Rosenberg was born in 1958/59[1] in Beaver, Pennsylvania, where she would grow up in a family of eight.[2] Inspired by her mother Olga who sewed much of what their family wore, Rosenberg would design her first clothing at age 11 – a green shift dress with a matching triangle scarf.[2] While enrolled at Beaver Area Middle School, Rosenberg would decide to be a designer as her profession.[2] After high school, Rosenberg would move to New York City to attend Parsons School of Design, where she would graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design.[1]
Career
Rosenberg would begin her career as fashion designer in the menswear design/production department for Ralph Lauren after graduating from college.[3] From there, she would work for the Alexander Julian Collection, where she would notably become the assistant designer for the uniforms of the Charlotte Hornets when they joined the NBA in 1988.[3][4]
Since leaving New York City, Rosenberg has also worked intermittently as a freelance fashion designer; creating hats, special-occasion dresses, children's clothing, and other accessories.[1] Key aspects of Rosenberg's freelance design include adding texture, subtle details, asymmetric patterns, comfortable fabrics, and vintage characteristics into her works.[1] Rosenberg has found most success with her hats working freelance, which she has sold on Etsy, as well as entered into competitions for the Kentucky Derby.[1] To date, Rosenberg has won two such competitions; first in 2007 for the "Chrysler Sebring Hats Off to the Derby" hat design contest, in which she won the convertible as a prize, and again in 2009 for the 'Courier-Journal's 1st Derby fashion race' with her woven straw hat titled "Sterling Silver Rose in Bloom".[2]
