Superstars like Madonna wore his fashion
Born on December 21, 1948 in Strasbourg, France, Mafred Thierry Mugler began designing in the 1970s. He eventually became known for his dramatic, avant-garde designs.
He retired from the fashion industry in 2002 before Clarins dissolved his ready-to-wear brand the following year. The brand was relaunched in 2010 under the Mugler name and is currently under the creative direction of designer Casey Cadwallader.
Mugler has come out of retirement a number of times and designed the costumes for Beyoncé’s (40) “I Am… World Tour 2009”. In 2019, he designed the dress that Kim Kardashian, 41, wore to the Met Gala. “He always has a complete vision, from the hair to the nails to everything,” Kardashian told People magazine of Mugler in 2019. “His catwalk shows were the most legendary and iconic of all time.”
His daring designs have also been worn by superstars like Lady Gaga, Madonna, Cardi B, Cindy Crawford, George Michael, David Bowie, Nicole Kidman, Megan Fox, Katy Perry, Rihanna and more.
