Born in Strasbourg, France, Manfred Thierry Mugler began his fashion career in Paris in the 1970s and founded his eponymous brand, Thierry Mugler, in 1974. Known for his designs that merge body-hugging sensuality with strong, tailored shoulder cuts, Mugler defined the feminine aesthetic of the 1980s and 1990s with his blend of sexiness and surrealism. Today, under the creative direction of Casey Cadwallader, the brand’s avant-garde spirit continues to thrive, focusing on sharp tailoring while incorporating contemporary technology and diverse aesthetics. This evolution celebrates the beauty of the human body and signifies the liberation of feminine power, elevating the brand's concepts to new heights.
