There is a full page advert in the latest Vogue Hommes International of a knitted cotton sweater by ' MONTANA ' !!!! Does anyone know whether this marks a return for the man himself , or whether his name has been bought and a collection designed by someone else in his name . I do know that this happened to his women's collection , but even that has disappeared from sight . I'd be grateful for ANY information . Regards KIT
I saw that, and I thought of you immediately. I think someone mentioned here that he sold his company. I don't have factual info though (Google maybe?)
Many thanks for all your comments If pennyfei feels it in her bones then it COULD be a good sign . KIT
claude montana Hi! I´m trying to find out what Claude Montana is doing today.Can´t seem to find any new articles or photos of him.I know the brand still exists but you never hear anything about him.He had financial difficulties and his wife commited suicide mid 90´s but then what? Who knows?
He sold his soul for rock and roll. Or more specifically fried his brain with crack. The license is now held by someone like Baumler. Ask kit.
yeah I know he had a nasty coke habit but why don´t you ever see or hear anything about him? What does he look like and how old is he?
Actually I think he was involved in designing the costumes for some theatre production quite recently...or was that Thierry Mugler?
Oops, sorry. In my mind they're the same person. I don't know why... The most recent mention I can find... "Anno 2001 Montana is still part of the fashion circuit, but he is no longer the captain everybody looks to for guidance. Montana seems a bit rusty in his old harnass, not capable or willing to raise his sails to the changing winds of a new century" - Gay News.com
i have tried to find some info about him on the internet...but it's not easy... i would love some images of his clothes from the eighties... i can offer this until kit comes along and expands the topic...
haha this is so funny because as soon as I saw this topic I thought of kit. I'm not that familiar with claude montana, can anyone provide a brief background on him and his work?
