"To think that a novice design team without any formal fashion training could win the coveted CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year Award would seem a fantastical fashion urban legend. And yet in 2010, British-born duo Marcus Wainwright and David Neville -- the pair who founded Rag & Bone in 2002 with a vision of making clothes that they and their friends would want to wear every day -- made fashion history. Working under the philosophy of quality craftsmanship and traditional construction fundamentals, the former design neophytes have successful men's, women's and children's clothing lines as well as an accessory and shoe line, all of which blend innovation and modernity with classic and timeless aesthetics."--Publisher website.
