I thinks it's too subjective and individual to say who is the greatest- we can only really say who is my favorite.
But If I were to try to say who WAS the greatest- probably cristobal Balenciaga.

Who was my favorite- Tom Ford

Who is my favorite currently designing- I think Alexander McQueen

[Miss Galliano]

[FASHIONLOVA]

for so many obvious reasons Galliano
for the sexiest clothes Tom Ford
for being a genius for so long Lagerfeld

Whoever did this.

Gianni Versace, no one walked the line between sexy and classy better.

i would'nt even name my favorite.
IMO there can be no reasonable response to this question.
unless a criteria is establish for us to judge designers everything else will be a matter of opinion

Matter of fact , I will attempt to formulate a series of principles by which we can attempt to come up with a conclusion

i will post it tommorow.

I also agree, after all, she was the inventor of the bias cut

Great designers:

Chanel - for being classic, simple, innovative, an aesthetic genius, almost eternal...

Balenciaga - the avante-garde master of shape, architecture, geometry, volume....

Greatest designer:

Hubert de Givenchy - for successfully mediating between the first two in respects

 

[telepathicgoat]

Yves Saint Laurent was a genius. Also: Martin Margiela and Yohji Yamamoto
