Schiaparelli

Schiaparelli is a Parisian couture house founded in 1927 by

Elsa Schiaparelli Elsa Schiaparelli ( , also , ; 10 September 1890 – 13 November 1973) was a fashion designer from an Italian aristocratic background. She created the house of Schiaparelli in Paris in 1927, which she managed from the 1930s to the 1950s. ...

, a designer known for her bold, surrealist styles. The house went bankrupt in 1954, but was revived in the 21st century, presenting its first new runway collection in 2014. Roseberry was named as the house's new creative director in April 2019, taking over from Betrand Guyon. He was the first American to lead a French couture house, and among the youngest to do so. At the time, Roseberry had no formal training in haute couture, and spoke no French. Roseberry showed his first collection for Schiaparelli in July 2019, just two months after joining. During the presentation, he sat at a drafting table in the centre of the runway, recreating the process by which he had designed the collection while living in his New York apartment. Roseberry stated that, in a departure from the houses's recent work, he deliberately avoided referencing or imitating the work of Elsa Schiaparelli, aiming instead to merely "capture the spirit and the bravery of Schiaparelli." As head of Schiaparelli, Roseberry has designed a number of high-profile garments for celebrities, including
