Isabel Marant

Isabel Marant creates her own world of melting mode design. Her french father, her german mother and particularly her west indian mother-in-law gave her a cosmopolite education. She studied at Studio Bercot fashion school in paris and when finished in 1987 she worked as Marc Ascoli’s assistant for artistic direction for Yohji Yamamoto, Martine Sitbon and Chloe. In 1990 Isabel launched a line of jewellery, which financed a small knitwear collection that grew to become Isabel Marant as we know it today. The labels style is a culture mix designed for a cosmopolite and urban world. Isabel’s silhouettes are fitted and sit close to the body in a way that exudes feminine elegance.
