One Vogue writer unpacks ChristopherKane's influence on fashion and what he means to the industry.
Around the time of Kane’s graduation, London had become a sleepy fashion town—an anomaly considering all the young talent the city’s design schools attracted. Around the millennium, London talent was being scooped up by houses in Paris or Milan . But Kane—and his sister Tammy, with whom he worked from the very beginning—was part of a new cohort of independent designers that included Erdem Moralioglu, Mary Katrantzou, Jonathan Saunders, Roksanda Ilincic, and the Meadham Kirchhoff duo.
Kane’s vision has always been wide-ranging and unique, and he never dulled it down for one market or another. In 2009 Natalie Massenet, Net-a-Porter’s founder, said her team was “noticing that women who like Oscar de la Renta are also happy to buy Christopher, because they like its femininity and quality.” In 2013, Kering purchased a majority stake in the brand.
