Meet Designer Martine Rose

“I was thinking about men throughout history who have broken the conventional gender rules of clothing, men with an overt sexual energy who used feminine looks to underline their masculinity.”

Martine Rose is a London-based designer who originally started her career by designing unisex T-shirts with her friend Tamara under the label LMNOP. They showcased their debut collection of 10 shirts at Blacks, a private members club in Soho 2007. LMNOP was doing well and had a huge following, but Martine decided to go solo and start her own brand. Her main focus was on shirts and gradually she started to branch out into other aspects of menswear.

Partnering with ASOS, Martine launched her first-ever womenswear collection. Her ASOS exclusive collection features trendy sportswear pieces that are made up of 90s graphic prints.  

She’s also collaborated with the likes of Wallpaper Magazine, Ligne Roset, Timberland, CAT, and Icon Brand.
