Meryll Rogge - Designer, Creative Director of Marni

[jeanclaude]

I was going to say her work reminded me somehow of Marni...until I saw this:



God bless us!!

I like her menswear more than Risso’s (especially his final show where he completely lost the plot). As always, keeping my fingers crossed and looking forward to comment on her debut collection in September (?)

Hopefully, presumably not. There's only 7 working days left before the companies and factories go on their August long vacanze, and MFW starts 23rd Sep.
STAFF and how Risso structured Marni studio doesn't have the facilities or shared OTB schedule priority to pump out a proper collection likely closer to Meryll's expectations.

as much as rizzo was losing the plot........ construction wise he knows (when he want to) do at prada level ...this we can't say of Meryll ...are we not being honest in just seeing the difference in cut and details quality ?

or is it just because she is new cd means its better than the old cd we mostly can't stand ?

is everyone that is appointed directly means they are right or good or better ?
she is one level up from new Mc Queen boy maybe not even. its sad that rapper at LV can make better design decisions than most appointed cd´s and i am not even a fan of him or his LV.

I hate basically 100% of her work. It's what rich hipsters would wear. Maybe her construction is just really weak?

Oh I wasn't stating either are better or worse in terms of construction knowledge. Was thinking about the logistics of whether they'll debut in Sep given that the new CD hasn't arrived physically to the company yet and MFW starts Sep 23rd, that they'll most likely prefer to show the season after. Since Staff Int. has to share development, production schedules and resources with Margiela (new RTW debut), Diesel, V&R (coming back with RTW) etc, and how the small Marni creative studio is set up in comparison to the machines of the brands of other CD's who are set to debut in Sep but were announced back Dec '24, Jan, Feb, April etc.

i agree i don't see them rush to make a september shows , even if with her low designs skills they could was my point :-) (blazy smile)

i was using your question as spark to make point :-) for sake of discussion on the difference in quality of designer regardless we didn't love or like much of rizzo´s marni (this besides the point of his pretentiousness he had since his prada years )

usually lola & some others are the one that sparks a reaction for me to think about and makes me rant / write lol

welcome to the Blazy club :-) being the new leader pseudo intellectual designer i have defined my territory, if not there are to many of us and i want to keep this club elite after all i am designing for Coco you know :-)

Seems like a desperate move like they couldnt find anyone better / more famous. given the fact that Renzo always tends to opt for a big name and shock factor when choosing CDS i mean he had Galliano and has Glenn and no offense to anyone but Meryll now..?

Her work is basically Simone Rocha ctrl + c ctrl + v with a bit of color. Wouldn't look at it twice, nothing groundbreaking

my expectations for her Marni arent sky high but at the same time nothing can be worse than Risso's work. I also doubt she will have any freedom in her work choices

Meryll Rogge's Marni will debut with a runway in February with the upcoming SS26 collection being designed by the design team.

Missing from the provisional calendar is Marni, now under the lead of Meryll Rogge, named creative director of the OTB-owned brand this month.

Contacted by WWD, a Marni spokesperson said the spring 2026 collection, conceived by the in-house design studio, will be presented to buyers through private showroom appointments.

Rogge’s vision for the Italian brand will be unveiled for the fall 2026 season, with her runway debut planned for February’s Milan Fashion Week.

HEEELP! is there a moderator or an admin? Someone merged my profile with another one so now there are two people commenting under my name! This is not mee 🥲 (not that is not an interesting comment but I have identity crisis reading my name on things that I didn’t write…

 

[Squizree]

I'm unable to summon any excitement at this time, but I'm hoping for the best.

After so many debut flops, it´s normal.

For a house full of colors and prints, she wears a black jumper~ Bye, Felicia~

Unnecessary. This is not Reddit.

 

[MulletProof]

Also let’s not revise history. Marni was never Missoni. At its peak (early-mid 00s), under Consuelo, it wasn’t all colors and prints diarrhea, she did some rather tame prints but mostly color blocks, quiet palettes and a lot of somber numbers..

So many boring appointments...

 

[TomBlanksFullFatMiuMiu]

Let's rewatch how many Style.com Marni videos from the 2000s mention the words 'print' and 'colour' lamo

Yes, because that's really what this whole multibillion-dollar industry is all about, isn't it? Inner beauty lamo

What you wear to work matters!
What designers wear is their brand, their armor, their selling point.
Dare I say, who they date, their political affiliation, where they live, and even their toenail color—all are stories. It’s a full-package lifestyle.

Yes, Marni can be many things, but revise history no! From buyers to journalists to stylists, these experts expect and love their prints at Marni

H&M Marni Collab (First word in the description... Original prints)


Spring 2009 (1:09 Virginie Mouzat: to see so many colors, prints, all together on one look/
2:19 Vanessa Friedman: She was able to combine textures and prints in pieces)

Style.com

Fall 2010 (1:53 Lucinda Chambers: Usually at Marni it's all about the prints)

Style.com

Spring 2011
(1:49 Julie Gilhart:Like there's that long dress that was in a vintage print, that you just pull over your head and go.)


Fall 2011 (1:14 Sarah Rutson: and they played up on the octagon prints
1:28 Lucinda Chambers: Yes, matchy matchy, print with print /
1:47 Cathy Horyn: And I think some of those dresses that came out that looked like it was in the same print, but it was layered)

Style.com

Spring 2013
(1:18 Anne Christensen: But she still had that whole section of kind of wicker prints and florals that I thought was very good for the Marni girl
1:24 Linda Fargo: I noticed that when she sent out a print, I craved it)

That’s honestly just self-mythologizing nonsense. By that logic, do male designers who create womenswear need to wear dresses 24/7 to be taken seriously? It's just about outfit/fashion, dressing stylishly doesn’t magically give you more brain cells or turn you into some deep thinker.

I don’t get why people always try to box themselves into a certain “identity group” instead of just learning and picking up different perspectives, even ones outside their own taste. An avant-garde designer doesn’t have to dress like their collections, just like how most artsy filmmakers dress pretty plain and conservative irl. The world’s actually a lot simpler than you think, mate!
