No designer captures the underground energy of contemporary fashion like Martine Rose. Since launching her eponymous label in 2007, the British-Jamaican designer has built a cult following with her unconventional approach to tailoring, streetwear, and gender-fluid fashion. Her designs challenge the norm, blending classic menswear references with oversized silhouettes, deconstructed proportions, and a rebellious spirit.
The Story Behind Martine Rose
Born and raised in South London, Martine Rose's work is deeply influenced by the eclectic mix of subcultures around her. From rave scenes and reggae soundsystems to ‘90s football culture, her collections reflect a raw, real-world aesthetic that speaks to those who move beyond conventional fashion labels. Her early designs, particularly her shirting, quickly gained traction, earning her collaborations with brands like Nike, Napapijri, and Balenciaga (where she worked under Demna Gvasalia). Today, Martine Rose stands as one of the most exciting independent designers, continuously pushing the boundaries of unisex clothing and contemporary streetwear.
The Martine Rose Aesthetic
What makes Martine Rose truly stand out? Her ability to turn the familiar into the unexpected. Oversized blazers with slouched shoulders, cropped bomber jackets, exaggerated track pants, and football jersey-inspired tops all showcase her unique design language. She takes classic tailoring and warps it, creating silhouettes that feel both nostalgic and futuristic. Her collections redefine unisex clothing, offering fluid styles that anyone can wear, without traditional constraints.
