- Known For: Isabel Marant is celebrated for its effortlessly chic, bohemian designs, with several iconic products defining its style. The Bekett wedge sneakers revolutionized casual footwear, blending comfort with a stylish edge. The brand’s Dicker ankle boots, crafted in suede with a Western-inspired silhouette, are a perennial favorite, as are its tailored jackets with sharp shoulders and relaxed cuts. Additionally, flowy peasant blouses, ruffled skirts, and embellished mini dresses reflect Isabel Marant's signature boho-meets-Parisian-cool aesthetic.
Founded in 1995, Isabel Marant has become synonymous with laid-back Parisian cool—the kind of effortless style that feels thrown together yet impossibly chic. Isabel started her journey a few years earlier, launching a knitwear line called Twen in 1989, but it was her first show under her own name that put her on the map. From her first boutique in a former artist workshop in Paris to becoming a global name, Marant has always stayed true to her vision: clothes that real people want to wear, made for their everyday lives.
The spirit of the brand is about nonchalant charm. It’s a little rock and roll, a little bohemian, and all about comfort meeting style. Marant’s designs are rooted in craftsmanship—every piece gets tested, tweaked, and worn until it’s just right. The clothes feel lived-in, but also like they’re ready to take on the world—whether it’s the slouchy boots that have become an icon, the carefree knit dresses, or the wedge sneakers that sparked a worldwide craze.
In recent years, Marant has focused on sustainability. The Isabel Marant Vintage platform launched in 2021, giving pieces a second life and supporting a more responsible fashion industry. That same year, she launched an endowment fund to help preserve traditional textile crafts, underscoring her commitment to craftsmanship and the stories behind the clothes. Today, Isabel Marant continues to blend French savoir-faire with a casual, worldly attitude, creating clothes that celebrate the beauty in everyday chaos—for those who want their style to feel as easy as it is impactful.
