Victor Frank Stiebel (1907-1976) was a South African-born British couturier. Born at Durban he arrived in Britain in 1924 to study at Cambridge. Having designed for theatre wardrobe at university, he opened his own fashion house in Brunton Street in 1932. He enlisted for the Second World War in 1940, closing his house, but he returned to designing in 1946, working for Jacqmar, and becoming Chairman of the Incorporated Society of London Fashion Designers. He reopened his own house in 1958, having great initial success, but being forced to close after only 5 years in 1963 on health grounds. Stiebel was commissioned to design new uniforms for the WRENS (1951) and the WRAF (1954) whilst also creating the going-away outfit for Princess Margaret on her marriage to Lord Snowdon in 1960. He was for many years the companion of composer Richard Addinsell.
