    Thierry Mugler changed fashion by pushing the boundaries of what fashion design and clothing could mean. He had a penchant for performance, drama and costuming that came from his background in ballet, having danced as a teenager with the Opéra national du Rhin in his hometown of Strasbourg, France. In the 1980s and 90s, his couture shows were theatrical and futuristic, similar to those of his contemporaries Jean Paul Gaultier and Christian Lacroix. In one of Mugler’s shows, the then-pregnant legendary supermodel Pat Cleveland was suspended from the ceiling and then glided down the runway surrounded by clouds of smoke. Mugler would become known for his immaculate tailoring as well as for his increasingly avant-garde designs that featured sharp cuts, sexy and fetishistic elements, an integration of metal and uniquely treated materials like PVC and leather. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Thierry Mugler pieces.

    The first fashion designer was Charles Frederick Worth. Born in England in 1825, Worth apprenticed for textile merchants and relocated to Paris. There, after gaining experience in sales, the British tailor opened a dressmaking department for a large French company before he started a workshop of tailors and seamstresses who produced his early designs for the Parisian elite. Worth was an innovator and an influencer of his day. While his achievements, which include helping pioneer modern couture, are of great historical significance, they shouldn’t overshadow those of important early women in fashion such as Marie Callot Gerber and Jeanne Paquin.
