Judy's

Judy's was a chain of clothing stores, based in Van Nuys, Los Angeles.

[2] Judy's sold sportswear and fashion accessories, the women's stores catering to juniors: slim-cut, trendy styles.

Israel wrote that she developed numerous groundbreaking concepts that were copied by other designers and retailers, such as the short-sleeve sweater and workmen's five-pocket jeans for casual use (accessorized with Ked's sneakers) by women.

[4][5] Israel was long considered a fashion authority; for example a 1970 interview in the Los Angeles Times around the topic of longer hemlines for women's skirts.

The Judy's "empire" was considered a "bellwether by great numbers of astute fashion people", according to the Times.
