The names, events, and trends you need to know about American fashion
The fashion landscape is a shifting one. For a long time, Paris was its undisputed capital, but now, as Hamish Bowles states: “American fashion is setting the tone for a never-seen-before future.”
Leading the way in the 1950s and ’60s, American fashion’s adolescence, were talents like Norman Norell and Charles James, whose architectural gowns were admired by the likes of Christian Dior but who also can be credited, notes Bowles, for such popular pieces as wrap dresses and sports bras. The 1980s saw the emergence of the big three: Ralph, Calvin, and Donna. Calvin Klein’s minimal slip dresses became iconic from the 1990s waif look, just as Marc Jacobs’s grunge collection for Perry Ellis is the emblematic moment when the MTV generation melded together with the industry.
