Top Ten Couture
"One zip and you are glamorous" – this is how Mark Badgley sums up the credo of this US fashion label Badgley Mischka. Together with James Mischka he set up his company in 1988 after studying at the famous New York Parsons School of Design. The idea: they wanted to revive the glamorous fashion style of the 1940s.
Their couture is stylish, aspirational, sophisticated and wearable, their no-frills design looks accomplished and elegant – also thanks to finest materials and supreme craftsmanship. The lifestyle portfolio now not only includes fashion but also matching footwear, bags and accessories. According to Vogue Badgley and Mischka are among the top ten US designers.
Their customers include the likes of Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom. Celebrities such as Madonna, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jennifer Lopez, Sharon Stone, Jennifer Garner, Julia Roberts, Kate Winslet, Sarah Jessica Parker and Ashley Judd appreciate the timeless creations of these Hollywood darlings.
In 1993 the label was sold to Escada with a view to expansion and since 2004 it has been part of the Escada subsidiary Iconix Brand Group. The shoe collection is produced under licence by US premium shoe specialist Titan Industries Inc.
