- The latest episode of Polimoda Duets, conducted by editor and fashion critic Stephan Rabimov, features an interview with Rick Owens, founder and creative director at Rick Owens.
Sitting in his Italian home in Lido, a tiny island in the Venetian lagoon, Owens begins his Duets by speaking empathetically about the global pandemic and how he spent his time in Paris amongst the trees he is transparently grateful to have. From the value in finding a community of like-minded people at school to exploring creativity and his love for provocation, Owens is soft-spoken and polite throughout his virtual interview as he discusses his life and his approach to the evolution of his brand. Rick even debunks some of his famous quotes.
“Fashion is communication. The way you present yourself is who you want to be,” shares Owens. “It’s always been very important to me to kind of tweak conventions when I present clothes. Fashion is about symbols and subtle signifiers. When I make a black skirt, there is something in the cut of that, that is pushing against convention in a very subtle way. And somebody is gonna recognize that and align themselves with that and be encouraged that somebody is encouraging them to push in a different direction. And that eventually is going to influence something else. So this is the kernel of an influence."
Owens launched his independent label in 1994 in Los Angeles before moving to Paris in 2003 with his partner in life and creativity Michèle Lamy. "Creativity is 5% of the equation and the other 95% is execution" is what Owens profoundly believes in.
"A lot of people have great ideas, but to get it executed with the right touch [is what makes the difference]. Just in the way hymns are finished, there are so many decisions and so many elements that can go wrong. The way linings are put in, the way a piece of clothing feels. And then, getting it into the right store at the right time on time at the right price, there are so many variables. It’s magic when all of that comes together and it kind of works. And that’s why it’s so compelling - because it’s magic."

The indifference comes when you put your clothes and accessories on etc and then you feel so balanced and comfortable, confident in them, that when you walk into the public, you are not even thinking about what you look like, you radiate out from your essence, which feels safe, housed, allowed to be, so you are just your beingness, you are present, receptive, or focused depending on your activities.
This is a beautiful interview, thank you both.
Yet another reason, why Rick Owens is admired, AND Adored !
this dude asks really good questions
I love Rick, he's so funny and precise at the same time
humor is his best known quality for sure
Iconic interview! I could listen to you both for hours! Rick is a wizard! He’s full of humility, truth, wisdom and imagination! Such an exceptional gentleman! In love with his blunt attitude. What a lovely man. Thank you for sharing! Bravo to you both! 👌🏻👍‼️
Thank you for this. I love Rick so much. My absolute favorite. And he is so wise and so well spoken.
13:50 I can’t believe he said this because I was just thinking “My ideal relationship would be my partner runs the business and I design and create the product” That the most romantic thing would be to be working on different halves of the same dream. What a great Matchmaking concept!!!
Great work by Stephan, i think this is one of the best prepared interviews with Rick Owens i´ve seen.
Very well done, congratulations and happy to see you collaborate now with Polimoda as I know when I saw you at Pitti this was something you wanted to achieve. Questions were great and interview well constructed so again bravo.
