Rick Owens
Rick Owens is a fashion designer living and working out of Paris. Originally from Southern California, his aesthetic is shaped by black and white Hollywood movies and the rawness of a decayed end of Hollywood Boulevard where he started his label in the early nineties after dropping out of art school. Called a “Minimalist Goth” designing “high priestess shrouds,” his work is exemplified by architectural jackets and bias cuts wrapped around the body in somber tones. There is definitely a Rick Owens cult. Watch out - buying one piece is the gateway drug.
