Know Everything About All Top Fashion Designers
Each country
and culture has its own dedicated team of fashion designers that not
only lead the way in that trends country, but also influence the rest
of the world in their way and style of wearing items.
The primary
areas of fashion influence are Europe and America, and these
translate to the rest of the world. French, Italian, American and
British designers are amongst the best in the world, and their
designs are copied slavishly by many others. Leading Italian
designers include Dolce
& Gabbana, Armani,
Moschino,
Valentino,
Gucci,
Fendi,
Versace,
Missoni and Prada.
The Italian
designers dominate the field of global fashion, but they are joined
by French designers, who are almost as important in their influence.
French designers include, Givenchy,
Dior,
Chanel,
Louis
Vuitton, Jean
Paul Gautier, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix and Hermes,
whose names, along with all the other major designers are known
throughout the planet, and whose creations adorn the bodies or arms
of every celebrity worldwide.
British and
American designers, although not as famous as their French or Italian
counterparts, still achieve a high level of recognition and
celebrity. British designers of note include Ted
Baker, Burberry,
Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, John Galliano, Julien
MacDonald, Vivienne Westwood, Mulberry and Zandra Rhodes. Their
American equivalents are more renowned, but this may be due to the
more widespread influence worldwide of American culture. American
designers of importance include, Liz Claiborne, Tommy Hilfiger, Donna
Karan (DKNY), Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Vera Wang and
Fitch and Abercrombie.
These
designers bring out new designer handbags and designer clothes and
combinations every season, but they are actually working at the time
on clothes for seasons a year or two in advance at any one time.
These are closely guarded secrets by the fashion industry, which
conveys the power that these individuals and their fashion houses
have over society. A pair of Manolo Blahnik shoes is enough to make
even the most put-together woman go crazy! He, along with Gina and
Jimmy Choo amongst others, are the designers whose creations can be
found pounding, or should that be gracing the pavements of countries
worldwide, on the feet of all those with the pocket to afford them.
Everyone else just admires them from afar, and has to make do with
the high street shoe fashions that are influenced, as high
street clothes are, by designer's styles and designs. The power
of the designer is all-encompassing; if they make something
fashionable, everyone around the world will be wearing
it within a few weeks.
Designers
know they have this power of idea and innovation, and will continue
to use it to influence global fashions throughout the eras. |
