In the last year Mathieu Mirano has been mentioned in the same breath as the likes of designers of the moment J W Anderson, Simone Rocha and Michael Van Der Ham, proof that the 22 year old - a graduate from Parsons the New School for Design - is more than just a flash in the pan.

Having garnered fans in Lady Gaga (who wore one of his dresses for an appearance on Good Morning America last year) and Katy Perry, Mirano now shows his sophisticated collections at New York Fashion Week and takes private orders through his website.
