Newman is best remembered for the costumes he designed for Ginger Rogers in movies like Top Hat and Swing Time. He made a blue dress with ostrich feathers, to Rogers's specification, which she wore in the Cheek to Cheek sequence and which gave her the nickname of Feathers. 15 of his costumes for the 1935 movie Roberta were reproduced and merchandised by the Modern Merchandising Bureau.
