Being a fashion designer is far from being a profession. It is a true vocation. The world’s best couturiers prove this truth by their own example. Each of them has their own fashion house with their own fans and critics, more than one line of fashionable and stylish products, their own character and vision of the fashion world as a whole.
Fashionable fashion designers of our time
Due to the special cult of fashion, the general hysteria around their own bows and fashion presentations, it is modern popular brands and fashion designers who play a special role in the development of the fashion industry, dictating innovative ideas. Masters of their craft work on creating real design masterpieces both alone and in a company with equally talented assistants or novice designers.
It so happened that the heart of the fashion industry was old Europe, where brilliant fashion designers were born and became famous all over the world. France was particularly rich in fashion talent. It was here that world-famous fashion designers were most often born.
The most iconic and internationally recognized designers of menswear and women’s exclusive outfits who were born in France:
- Pierre Cardin;
- Jean Paul Gaultier;
- Christian Lacroix;
- Paco Rabanne;
- Givenchy.
Cardin is a fashion designer who conquers with his special style. He is known worldwide as an extraordinary inventor and bold experimenter. The master of haute couture began his career in Paris. From the very beginning to the present day, his outfits have been the epitome of chic and elegance, supported by an original presentation and an unconventional vision of individual details.
Another good example of male talent is Jean Paul Gaultier. He always considered Cardin to be his role model. Gaultier was the main founder of fashion trends and new directions in the 80s and 90s. Many showbiz stars considered it an honor to have a new piece of clothing from the famous fashion designer.
Christian Lacroix began his stunning career with simple sketches of knitted clothes and ethnic-style costumes. His first collection was also an embodiment of national folklore. Ethnic accents are still considered to be the designer’s specialty.
Paco Rabanne became famous for using very unusual materials to create his extravagant outfits: from thick sheets of paper to metal elements.
The most iconic fashion designers from America
The American continent has also given the world many worthy personalities. The legendary Calvin Klein deserves special attention. It was he who became the founder of fashion logomania. He made iconic jeans out of ordinary work clothes, full of glamor, style, sophistication and fashionable provocation.
Today Ralph Lauren is one of the most famous, rich and successful couturiers in the world. The “richest designer” began his career in the United States. His main “chips” in his products are graceful cut lines, the leitmotif of the “wild west”, and the decoration of many ensembles with a silk tie.
Vera Wang is a well-known trendsetter in the world of wedding fashion. Wedding dresses from this beautiful woman are the ultimate dream of any fashionista and happy bride.
