"In the frenetic, often tumultuous fashion industry, Mark Badgley and James Mischka are a rare breed. Hailed by Vogue as among the ""Top 10 American Designers"" and the darlings of the young Hollywood set, this design team has made their mark with the most glamorous, stylish and wearable evening wear to come along in years. Since Mark and James joined forces in 1988, Badgley Mischka has captivated the fashion press and prominent retailers with their sophisticated style that caters to a younger, more modern couture customer, while not forsaking women of any age. They have remained true to this design philosophy and the consistent integrity of their collections have pushed them to the forefront of fashion. The Badgley Mischka signature style is simple, streamlined and thoroughly elegant."
