One of Vogue's "Top 10 American Designers," Mark Badgley and James Mischka create visions in fabric. Launched in 1988, Badgley Mischka have made a name for themselves in the past two decades. "Our style harks back to the glamorous Hollywood of the Forties" says Mischka. "The Badgley Mischka signature style is simple, streamlined and thoroughly elegant." Through silhouettes that compliment women's figures, the duo creates an essence of elegance in the form of their clothing.
"One zip and you're glamorous!" says Badgley. "We like to keep things effortless. It's fabulous if you can spend hours getting ready, but a woman should also be able to bring a dress to work and change there for an evening out." The team's 'effortless' designs aim to make women have one less thing to worry about at the end of a business day. Their fashions can walk off the runway, into the streets, into the office, and back out for a quick drink with the coworkers. Check out this slide-show to get a taste of the effortless glamour that is Badgley Mischka.
