After her father lost much of his wealth, Greene, although under no pressure, felt obliged to find work. She worked as a commercial artist, specialising in fashion catalogues. She would return to her interest in fashion and art after the social upheavals of the two world wars, when she created hats and handbags in the 1950s.
