About
Former Hermès Womenswear designer and IFM Paris grad, Paris-based. Worn by Penélope Cruz.
Introducing Miren Itxaso Martinez is like a refreshing breeze in the fashion world. A graduate of the prestigious Institut Français de la Mode, currently based in Paris. Miren's creative journey is deeply rooted in her experiences at Hermès and her independent line, where her unique approach emphasizes quality, structure, and timeless design. Her Spanish heritage from the Basque region infuses her creations with a rich cultural depth that resonates with modern elegance.
Miren is celebrated for her ability to craft pieces that are not just garments but heirlooms, designed to transcend time and trend. Her philosophy is clear: "There is no better design than simple and quality design." She believes that making clothes fashionable or trendy is not meaningful; instead, she focuses on timeless designs that reflect healthy fashion consumption. Her extensive experience in luxury fashion houses profoundly influences her creativity and understanding of fashion. She strips designs to their essence, focusing on volume and structure while ensuring unparalleled quality.
In her collaboration with Fabrique, Miren continues to push boundaries. She aims to highlight the wearer's personality and soul, encouraging a wardrobe that enhances individuality rather than defining it. "I want people to wear clothes, not clothes to wear people," she asserts. Her latest collection imagines a woman who is confident, expressive, and independent, with a passion for a beautiful wardrobe that needs no adornments to speak for her. This collaboration demonstrates Miren’s vision of empowering fashion, focusing on self-expression.
