Flint, ''New York Times'', 20 November 1975, p. 44.〕) was the first celebrity clothes model and has been credited with inventing the "blank hauteur" of the modern fashion model.〔("De Meyer at Vogue: Commercializing Queer Affect in First World War-era Fashion Photography" ). (Elspeth H. Brown ). ''Photography & Culture'', Volume 2, Issue 3, November 2009, pp. 253–274. (Archived here. )〕 Florenz Ziegfeld, Jr. called her "The loveliest showgirl in the world".〔Ziegfeld, Richard and Paulette Ziegfeld.

== Early life ==
Kathleen Rose was born in Wimbledon,〔 near London, in 1893 or 1894. Her father was Harry Rose (born Northleigh, Oxfordshire), a former police officer, and her mother was Helen or Ellen ("Nellie") Rose (born Vauxhall, London), a dressmaker. Kathleen had a sister, Eva A. Rose, born around 1890. Newspaper reports say that Kathleen was born into poverty and in the 1901 British census, Harry is shown without occupation. In the 1911 return he is marked as "Paralized 20 years". The family had two boarders and a visitor living with them at the time of the 1901 census when they were at 61 Russell Road, Wimbledon. Kathleen was not living with her parents at the time of the 1911 census.〔1901 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription. findmypast.co.uk Retrieved 22 November 2014.〕〔1911 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription. findmypast.co.uk Retrieved 22 November 2014.〕
Around 1910, Kathleen started work for the fashion designer Lady Duff Gordon (Lucile). Newspaper reports, which may not be reliable, say she started as an errand girl after being forced to leave school, presumably for financial reasons.〔 Duff Gordon recognised that Kathleen's height of at least ,〔(Schweitzer, 2009, p. 204. )〕 elegant figure and blonde hair, made her an ideal clothes model.〔(Rose Dolores. ) ''Broadway Photographs''. Retrieved 21 November 2014.〕 She trained Kathleen as one of her mannequins (models) and renamed her "Dolores". Duff Gordon later described Dolores as the best mannequin that she ever had.〔Duff Gordon, Lucy. (1932) ''Discretions and Indiscretions''. New York: Frederick A. Stokes, p. 69.〕 Dolores was photographed wearing "Lucile" Duff Gordon's creations in Paris in 1912, the same year the designer and her husband, Sir Cosmo Duff-Gordon, survived the ill-fated maiden voyage of the RMS ''Titanic''.〔
