Mark Eisen

Synopsis

Mark Eisen leads a new group of American designers who eschew the clichés of US heritage for a commercial modernism that combines modern materials with a keen sense of commercial awareness. Eisen talks to fashion editor Marion Hume about the US fashion scene, how changes in fashion retailing impact upon the designer, and how a designer can combine high fashion with business success.
