Videofashion Designers: Jeremy Scott (2018)

In this episode of Videofashion Designers: In 1997, Kansas City, Missouri, native, Jeremy Scott went from being a farm boy to a fashion provocateur, with the launch of his eponymous label. The unapologetic Scott courted controversy with his brash wit, challenging the industry’s notion of dressing. Looking for an appropriate environment for his unique vision, Scott established his career in Paris, and presented his collections there for over a decade. It was his use of Americana, as well as his cartoonish interpretation of pop culture, that brought Scott notoriety; he’s dressed stars from Nicki Minaj to Madonna, and Karl Lagerfeld reportedly told the French newspaper, Le Monde, that Scott was the only designer who could follow him at Chanel. In 2014, Scott’s popularity skyrocketed when he was named Creative Director of Italian fashion house, Moschino. The “American in Milan” has since catapulted the once withering brand back into the spotlight. Coveted “see now buy now” capsule collections, larger-than-life runways, and major collaborations – including a 2018 collection with fast-fashion emporium, H&M – have made Moschino, and Jeremy, a favorite of millennials – further proof that the seemingly ageless designer is undoubtedly “living the dream.” Videofashion Designers Vol 5#2 "Jeremy Scott" (2018) Videofashion is the #1 source for fashion video — since 1976!
