An innovative fashion Maison as singular today as when it was founded in 1966, Rabanne stands out for unifying an avant-garde vision with modern values. Since the earliest collections through the 1960s and ‘70s, the Paris‐based brand has explored ideas of radical craft—from the use of metal mesh as fabric that contours the body, to assemblages of unconventional materials that create vibrant silhouettes. Maison Rabanne’s daring designs became iconic and identifiable. They signaled an evolving, liberated expression of femininity—one that subverted traditional codes while appearing effortless in attitude. The arrival of Julien Dossena as artistic director in 2013, infused the Maison with a youthful vibrancy with his eclectic references and inspired creation.
