[edit] A Few Corrections

Marie's stepmother did not use the surname Paley until she was created a princess by Nicholas II shortly before World War I.

Marie's business in Paris after the revolution was called Kitmir and produced very high-quality machine embroidery which was mostly used by the great Paris fashion house of Chanel. Marie never operated or owned a dress shop, though she made most of her own clothes for a considerable time, and also took in orders from friends.

In her memoirs, Marie maintained that her embroideries were of the highest quality. The business eventually failed because it was under capitalized and Marie knew next to nothing about how to run a business.

[edit] Box

I removed this box from the website. It should be re-added, however, the problem is, that when this table is in the article, the entire article ends up in the box. I can't figure out how to fix it, hopefully one of you can. Mulder1982 10:44, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
