Actually ,I just know the RICK OWENS in my last  years, i went to a hair salon for working in my last years, and i starting know the RICK OWENS from my boss, he introducing many story of RICK OWENS to me ,and RICK OWENS touch me a lot at design.Owens studied fashion design at Otis college in Los Angeles, for two years before dropping out and taking  pattern making and draping courses l,eading to work in the garment industry doing knock-offs of designer clothing,Working and producing in Europe led him to his move from Los Angeles to Paris and show during the Paris collections. He also began his longstanding collaboration with stylist Panos Yiapanis, who has been working with Owens on all his catwalk shows to date.Owens’ pieces have proved highly collectable since 2005. Owens had only created a series of bespoke pieces for his bunker-style LA loft, but when he moved to Paris, he was snapped up by local dealer Philippe Jousse. Eight years on, now signed to the Carpenters Workshop Gallery, and currently exhibiting in London, he is demonstrating not only serious intent in this field but considerable talent.

In the last 15 years, there are few people who have captivated the worlds of fashion, art, and design as strongly as Rick Owens. A designer with a cult following that eagerly awaits his gothic-grunge collections at Paris Fashion Week, Owens has done what few in fashion are able to do. He succeeds independently within a tumultuous, fast-paced industry, while continuing to expand his vision beyond clothing into furniture and art.

Part of Owens’ appeal is his ability to surprise audiences while giving them the essential style they’ve come to know and love. His clothing defies structure by creating new ideas of shape; it is dark yet glamorous and truly meant to be worn and lived in. His shows, which have featured Estonian rock band Winny Puhh, American step-dancers, and exposed male genitalia, are often performances that give his clothing an immediate narrative for the world seeing it for the first time. His furniture, which he has described as a way for him to explore a more enduring medium than clothing, uses an array of materials, like fossilized woods, alabaster, moose antlers, and vein-less black and white marble, to create the ultimate collision of minimalism and strength.

Though Owens’ ascent in fashion seemed fast, his entire life prepared him for the eventual risk that was starting his own line. He was born in Porterville, CA to a mother who was a teacher and a father who was a social worker. Owens then moved to L.A. to attend college for painting, but later dropped out because it was too expensive and he wasn’t sure it would turn into a sustainable job.

It’s pretty remarkable in the context of the volatile fashion industry, how Owens has changed the way we dress: drapier, darker, longer, and edgier. He exists simultaneously at the center of it all (there have even been sculptures of him at Selfridges in London and in his Hong Kong store) while making the clothing represent a greater lifestyle that celebrates the individual.

“Every collection I’m ever going to do is inside me,” Owens says. “I just have to untangle and edit and look for it and clean the dirt around it. It’s all there.”
