Jennifer Lopez, Heidi Klum, Catherine Zeta-Jones. These are just a few of the many actresses dressed in Michael Kors, the American designer who started designing clothes at just 19, and who made his debut in 1981 launching his first womenswear line. That first collection was focussed on high fashion sportswear. In 1997 Kors designed his first menswear line and, working for Celine, who he left in 2003 to concentrate on his own brand, curated a contemporary and dynamic style.
