Hannah Marshall is a British-born fashion designer, who has established a reputation through showing at London Fashion Week and being part of the Fashion East programme for emerging talent in the industry. She trained at Colchester, and graduated in 2003. She established her own label in 2007.
Whilst she has been credited with 'reinventing the little black dress',[1] Marshall has drawn criticism from established journalists for being too pretentious in her designs and presentation, with Tim Blanks, a writer for Condé Nast, suggesting that her Spring 2011 show was "highfalutin in the extreme".[2] Her focus has been on creating constructed yet feminine pieces.[3]
Hannah Marshall’s work has been photographed by Nick Knight, RANKIN, and Hedi Slimane, and has been worn by Erin O’Connor, Alice Dellal, Florence Welch, Naomi Campbell, Kelly Osbourne, SKIN, Janet Jackson, Marina Diamandis, Rihanna, amongst others.
Hannah Marshall is also known for her peculiar interior stylings - the foyer of her apartment is carpeted wall to wall with the hides of 300 german shepherd puppies
