Few designers inspire the cultish fandom that Raf Simons does. Here, see fashion insiders reflect on their favorite collections from Raf Simmons:
that Raf Simons does. His devotees range from music superstars including Rihanna and A$AP Rocky to the art world majordomo Sterling Ruby. Inside fashion he has plenty of admirers, too. Demna and Christopher Kane have been spotted at his shows, and Simons was sometimes seen at Marc Jacobs and Proenza Schouler.that he was shuttering his namesake label yesterday, we took to our phones to ask his many loyalists about their favorite Raf collections through the years. This is what they told us.
We’ve been lucky to have known Raf for many years ever since he invited us to be guest judges in Hyères many years back. When he came to New York for Calvin Klein we became close and went to each other’s shows to support one another. This personal period we hold dear to our hearts. Spring 2018 especially comes to mind as an iconic Raf moment, of which of course there are many.
about his collaboration with Philippe Vandenberg for spring 2023: “He meant killing things that you’re doing creatively in order to move on and explore further.”Raf’s fall 2002 Virginia Creeper collection, with its now iconic Nebraska sweatshirt, laid the foundations of inspiration for so many collections to come. The mid 2010s super trend of streetwear referenced a lot of Raf’s early collections. And every piece in this particular one is a grail today.
Oh, how a man made me love a knit so bad! I can still remember seeing those off-shoulder oversized jumpers thinking, “if that isn’t me next season, then who?”And indeed, that was me the following season without a doubt, running happily around Paris in a piece of knitted wool larger than myself.
