Martine Rose is a menswear designer who lives and works in London. Rose established her eponymous label in London in 2007, which has since evolved from a tightly edited shirting collection to an internationally renowned and critically acclaimed brand. Rose is inspired by her Jamaican-British heritage and her deep interest and personal involvement in the music and high / low melting-pot cultures of London. Family and community are at the heart of the company - famously her shows have been held in spaces such as the covered markets of Tottenham, a neighbourhood cul-de-sac in Camden and Torriano primary school. She was nominated for the British Fashion Council’s Menswear Designer of Year in 2018 and 2019, and the Urban Lux Award. In 2017 she was shortlisted for the LVMH prize and nominated for the ANDAM award for emerging designers.
