Marcus Wainwright

Mr. Wainwright's design ethos of form and function was refined during time spent alongside skilled artisans at one of America's oldest apparel factories. This experience informed rag & bone's philosophy of the importance of quality, expert craftsmanship and attention to detail. David Neville, a friend of Mr. Wainwright's from boarding school at Wellington College, subsequently left London to join rag & bone in New York. Today, the British born-duo are co-CEOs of the brand.

In 2015, Mr. Neville and Mr. Wainwright were nominated for the CFDA Menswear Designer of
