I think he didn’t mention some because he was more pointing out they took out the high end out of fashion the more low maintenance fashion

I cant believe that Vivienne Westwood was left of the list, her designs used Harris Tweed, from the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, this in turn helped boost sales for Harris Tweed fundamentally saving the local industry of the islands. Using this fabric was also a nod and a middle finger to aristocratic ways of the UK.. Plus the fact she is a kick ass climate activist (one that doesn’t destroy art to make a hedland) … Jean Paul Gautier cheeky, provocative, chic, theatrical, and queer, plus i served Gautier a couple of drinks at the Beauchamp Hotel on Oxford Street Sydney way way way back in Mardi Gras 1999… i was like “OMG you’re Jean Paul Gautier!” …. He was like “shhhhhh”… he tipped well. In my mind i was all like Madonna Madonna Madonna … music has been a major roll in my fashion awakening, appreciation and appetite (even though I’m still a jeans and tshirt kinda guy) i guess the two go together here is an extreme example Morris Dancers.

Westwood, Gaultier & Versace (both Gianni & Donatella) felt like the most obvious omissions from their cultural significance that extends beyond the clothes. You left out quite a few significant Americans: Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein & Donna Karan to name a few. Some less obvious choices but worth noting are Viktor & Rolf, RAF(!)…also the work of Miguel Adrover is often overlooked/under recognized in my humble opinion.

KENZO The only designer who credibly included nature and nature-inspired prints, as well Japanese flair for colour into modern fashion. Also Hanae Mori who became the first Japanese person to do couture in Paris.

So I'm going to be a total nerd and suggest a couple of lesser known designers, Madame Gres and Emilie Flöge. Madame Gres specialised in pleating and was inspired by Grecian sculpture (I studied ancient history at uni so that really resonates). She peaked in the 1930s but when you look at some of her dresses they appear shockingly modern. Emilie Flöge is a bit of strange one (who I heard about in a Karolina Żebrowska video); it's hard to explain but if you Google her you'll see why she deserves attention. She was a fashion designer (based in Vienna rather than Paris) but I don't think her really unique pieces caught on (it's not even clear that she tried to promote or sell them). I accept that neither of these two are GOATs but I wanted to share with the group as they're both worth a look.

To be fair to her biographers, we legitimately didn’t have any documented evidence of her participation until it was declassified in 2014 by the French government. being a Nazi sympathizer is already pretty bad, and I don’t agree with her biographers’ decisions to defend her in that way. But now that we have documented proof, there’s really no disputing it anymore 🤷

Not necessarily in this order: 1. Thomas Burberry! He invented gabardine he changed the game for outerwear in the rain! Burberry trench coats! Do I need to say more? 2. Gaby Aghion (who created Chloe) changes fashion by making 'luxury pret-a-porter', which before fashion houses made Haute Couture. 3. Salvatore Ferragamo for creating the steel arch which lead to the stiletto heel! 4. Thierry Hermès I’m pretty sure is one of the oldest fashion houses, if not the oldest! I’m not sure if Jane Birkin and Jean-Louis Dumas, who created the Hermès Birkin bag, are too new to be on this list. But everyone wants one of these bags and there are so many bags that take inspiration from it. 5. Achille Maramotti! Max Mara coats are classics! He created coats that last for years, don’t go out of style, and any generation could wear! He saw how mass production of designer clothes was the way to go. 6. Rene Lacoste who invented the polo shirt, made tennis wear more comfortable and is still a popular top for pretty and old money aesthetic. 7. Ralph Lauren made clastic pieces stylish and encompass the “old money” classic / British aristocracy aesthetic. Some say he “wrote the rules of menswear” and “changed the way we think about style whether you’re uptown, downtown, or anything in-between”. 8. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana are iconic with their loud prints! They made the pantsuit feminine! 9. Louis Vuitton with his iconic monogram leather goods, and makes some of the most famous bags in the world! 10. Stella McCartney, I’m pretty sure she’s “too new”, but I think her faux fur coats and sustainability should land her on the list. Today a lot of people have an issue with animal products and she is one of the designers who focused on making designer pieces that work with todays modern concerns. And so many more designers… I might add to this list later but this was just off the top of my head…. 🤔

Some other fashion titans - Sonia Rykiel, Pierre Balmain, Jeanne Lanvin, Charles Worth, Mariano Fortuny a.k.a OG pleats god, Mary Quant a.k.a give me everything mini, Diane Von Furstenburg, Gianni Versace, Thierry Mugler, Ann Lowe, Edith Head a.k.a the queen of Hollywood. Could go on but that’s what I love about fashion - so many great designers and different eras.

Geoffrey Beene. - Originally studied to become a doctor. Learned muscular systems and how humans move, and at the very end of his studies, changed his career because he couldn't stand the blood. - Most famous design was the fully sequined sports jersey GOWN made from silk and sequins. The MET has one - Created simple dresses that were intellectually sexy in that they looked under the skin for inspiration, rather than taking the human body at face value - Used materials considered unconventional at the time - Instead of using a runway, had dancers perform in his clothing to show how well anyone could move in them - Simplistic maximalism through twee-like print creation - Died and left behind a foundation that continues to fund and support small designers to this day - He isn't talked about in online fashion spaced so hi. Please talk about him :) He's sick and his deep cuts are so clever.

100% Missed *THE Jil Sander* I like to think of the zeitgeist as a series constants that manifest differently. Jil Sander somehow managed to penetrate through the manifestations and design straight from the source. That is to say, her designs are truly timeless. They don’t feel dated and they never presumed to visually identify the “future of fashion.” They exist in a weird moving present that never falls behind or speeds ahead.

GRAVE WALES BONNER: SHE is why we accept DEMNA. ANN LOWE: she pioneered African Americans in fashion breaking down barriers towards black people in luxury fashion DO NOT FORGET MARY QUANT!!! She revolutionized modern fashion with the mini-skirt and it’s importance shifted us towards a less conservative form of dress

13:08 The correct definition of a « bias cut » is pattern pieces that are placed on a 45 degree angle from the straight vertical grain line of a fabric, which are then cut and sewn. (So it is not the fabric that’s woven diagonally) In general, garments are usually cut on straight grain line to allow stability and ease during assembly. But bias cut pieces allow garments to achieve elasticity and suppleness to their volume, but they are difficult to work with (thus it requires skill, technique and experience). I hope this helps.

Thank you! Was very confused when he said 'particularly jersey' as well which is knit

Doesn't really make sense not to include Charles Frederick Worth. You even mentioned his house! The guy literally invented haute couture.... Also, Michael Kors. Wearable, somewhat affordable garments that, at least in my opinion, have changed American fashion to being very, very elegant

Jeanne Lanvin should be on this list. Beautiful, touching and inspiring story of how fashion was born out of mother’s love. She would wrap her daughter Marguerite in dresses and gowns made of finest and most luxurious fabrics with silhouettes so beautiful and exquisite that society women started requesting “adult versions” of the garments.

Norma Kamali, who is now all but forgotten, had a significant impact on American ready-to-wear. She is most recognized for her swimwear and parachute coat. Farrah Fawcett's red one-piece bathing suit from the classic 1976 poster and Whitney Houston's swimming suit from the back cover of her 1985 debut album were both created by Kamali.

Galliano is the greatest of all time to me, simply for the sheer range of his vision. Whether it’s the rebellious designs of his own brand, the romantic haute couture that he designed for the house of Dior, or his extremely forward interpretation of the anti-fashion of Margiela, he hardly ever misses. He has such an understanding of silhouette, structure, the bias cut, romance and femininity. He’s a true chameleon who can extract glamour from the most mundane things, he’s the story-teller.

I think he would be doing amazing things today, too.

I think Gres, Gaultier and Westwood are broadly influential designers that deserve to be on the list. Two personal favorites of mine that I'd love to have seen are Geoffrey Beene and Bill Blass. Both of these designers had an interest in Old Hollywood glamour, menswear influences, geometric and mix matched patterns, and a uniquely unaffected American chic. Beene's clothes were lushly embellished, but nevertheless remained examplars of minimalism due to the purity of the cut and elimination of inner construction and seams. Either of these designers would be a great replacement for Oscar de la Renta, who to me did not innovate either in style or construction. Here are two obscure names to consider: Romeo Gigli and Zoran. And Patrick Kelly--yes, yes yes!
