Marios Schwab

Label Overview

London-based, Austrian-Greek designer Marios Schwab launched his label in 2005, focusing on bandage-tight dresses with scientifically precise cuts and geometric shapes. By 2006, he was awarded best “New Generation Designer” at the British Fashion Awards. He uses jacquards, velvets, and other rich materials, mixing fabrics to emphasize the female form. His bold, highly structured creations are sometimes inspired by gothic and pornographic images and often have a hard, sexual edge. In recent years, Schwab has expanded his collection to include more mainstream pieces like printed tees, swimsuits, and cover-ups.
