Overview
French fashion transcends the rules and invents new ones. It is successful due to their societal dimension, meaningful design and impeccable execution. It has also built on diversity whether it be gender, nationality or social. Women designers in France have always played a key role - Vionnet, Grs, Paquin, Jeanne Lanvin, Elsa Schiaparelli, Coco Chanel - to the point that there were as many women couture designers as men in the first half of the 20th century. International diversity played an early and huge role as well, Charles Worth, Cristbal Balenciaga, Schiaparelli and later on Nina Ricci and Paco Rabanne all came to France to express their talent and got worldwide recognition there, as, later on, did Karl Lagerfeld, Martin Margiela, Phoebe Philo, Riccardo Tisci, Raf Simons and Demna Gvasalia. We have to make sure France keeps its spirit of meaningful disruption, combined with impeccable execution.
