Rick Owens is so popular due to the creativity of his designs and his unique style, which has been called luxe minimalism. Though his designs are simple and spare, Owens thrives on theatricality, producing wildly original runway shows featuring gender-fluid models of all ages and shapes. Inspired by his longtime partner and muse, Michèle Lamy, his clothes and furniture alike feature dark grays, blacks and browns. Owens finds his strongest influences in nature. His furniture and housewares have simple, organic shapes, and a few items even feature his distinctly 21st-century take on antlers. For many aficionados of Owens's clothes, their gateway is a distressed leather motorcycle jacket. He describes the look as "glunge" — a portmanteau of "glamor" and "grunge." Owens uses only the finest materials, although they're not always visible from the outside. An example is the sumptuous sable lining found in many of his jackets.

The American designer's distressed leather motorcycle jackets continue to be among his most coveted designs today. Shop a selection of Rick Owens apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.
