Nudie Cohn (1902 - 1984) was a American tailor, known for designing rhinestone-covered outfits to be worn by celebrities.

Cohn was born in Kiev as Nuta Kotlyarenko and moved to New York as a child. He started a western wear store in North Hollywood and became known for his outlandish Nudie suits and customized cars with western themes that have become prized collectible items today.
