Fact: we love everything Thierry Mugler. It’s hard not to, with its perfumes that smell like rich chocolate desserts and galactic catwalk collections. So here’s a little treat for you: we’re going to take you through the history of Thierry Mugler…
1948
Thierry Mugler is born in Strasbourg, France. As he grows up, he learns that he loves drawing and dancing. His passion? To create another world, one that is his own.
1968
At 20 years old, he leaves his hometown to go to Paris. There, he starts designing for fashion boutiques, then goes on to work with major fashion houses in Paris, London and Barcelona.
1973
Mugler creates his first collection called Café de Paris, where he showcases an urban, sexy style.
1978
He becomes Designer of the Year, voted for by both the press and public.
1980s
Mugler’s fashion shows are inspired by ultra-femininity – think extravagant dresses, diva outfits, fairy-like designs and structured bustiers. Dreamy!
1992
Thierry Mugler launches perfume number one – Angel for her. Its gourmand, captivating notes make it revolutionary in the fragrance world. This is not just a perfume – this is a creamy, vanilla, caramel, honey and praline perfume. It’s now a classic and we can’t get enough of it. The world goes crazy for Angel.
1996
A*Men for him is here and all we can say is… amen! It smells of chocolate, caramel and vanilla, so now men can get in on the gourmand scents.
2005
Hello, Alien! Thierry Mugler extends his out-of-this-world perfume collection with the introduction of Alien for her – a lighter blend of jasmine, cashmeran wood and white amber. Lush!
2015
Mugler’s AW15 collection is just as we’d come to expect: black panel dresses with sexy backs and galactic silver and gold patterns.
2016
Angel Muse launches and it smells just like our brunch goals. We’re obsessed with the notes of hazelnut cream cocoa and red berries. Can we have a waffle with that, too? Dreamy.
The SS17 catwalk show is bold, shiny and VERY Mugler. The colour palette is silver, black, white, blue and orange, and the clothes, which include sporty zip pieces, are fitted like wetsuits. Very futuristic!
