Daily News | A walk through Stuart Weitzman’s Philadelphia, and private shoe collection
— through the Rainbow Room gallery where local guest curators grapple with depictions of gender and queerness, and there you come upon it:: Stuart Weitzman’s and Jane Gershon Weitzman’s private collection of shoes throughout history, on display at the Michener Museum through Jan. 15, 2023.
On a recent visit by invitation of the Michener, she said, Weitzman himself appreciated “the deeper dive.” It’s Penn, though, that he calls his “third daughter.” And the feel of a beaming smile of a proud and generous parent is evident in multiple places on the campus, including the Stuart Weitzman School of Design, the Stuart Weitzman Plaza along 34th Street, and that newly renamed Weitzman Hall, formerly Morgan Hall, a historic and architecturally significant building on 34th Street that once was an orphanage.
He told The Inquirer he called up his friend, another fashion mogul turned Philly philanthropist, Sidney Kimmel, who had just stepped down as museum board chair, and said, “ ‘Sidney, I’m looking at 15 renowned Americans on a screen here [at the museum], and one of the pictures in the lower right corner is Ethel Rosenberg,’ ” Weitzman said.
