Designers.

Martin Margiela- A belgium fashion designer who originally worked for Jean Paul Gaultier before launching his own collection in 1989, he then became creative director for Hermes women line in 1997.
Hes known for his new generation of fashion, with quirky touches using things like hair to create garments.



Rick Owens- is an american fashion designer known fo his avant garde and subversive eye. he started his own label in 1994 selling exclusively to Charles Gallay, a pioneering Los Angeles retailer. He showed his first runway collection in September 2002 at new york fashion week.
His designs are often very gothic and monochrome using lots of leathers and heavy layering.



Gareth Pugh- Again a very monochrome designer,  with exetreme gothic influence, who interned with rick owens. However gareth pugh takes his designs that bit further. He started at Central St Martins after hs intern which is where he was discovered for his inflatable collection where he accentuate models' joints and limbs which almost became his trade mark. He often uses leathers and PVC to create new and bold silhouettes ith a modern gothic feel to them.
