This essential volume is the first critical appraisal of Rick Owens’s work, documenting the evolution of nearly three decades of the designer’s inimitable worldview. With his provocative and subversive approach to design, Rick Owens has been a transformative force in fashion since he founded his label in 1994. Owens remains one of the most daring and influential fashion designers working today, often described for his “a-grunge-meets-glamor” aesthetic, and has cultivated a devoted international following. In his creations, grace and grit are paired with an obsession with structural transformation.
