The creations of John Ribbe are a reflection of his international lifestyle with its diverse inspirations. Born in Hamburg, he graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and, after designing for several brands on 7th Avenue, relocated to Paris to launch his own brand.
Following his debut fashion show in 1993, the International Herald Tribune hailed him as “the newcomer of the latest trends in Paris.” His collections quickly gained recognition and are carried by prestigious retailers worldwide.
John’s designs are deeply influenced by his passion for architecture, characterized by their pure, clean, and immaculate lines.
In 2011, John launched his first bag collection. True to his signature style, his bags are graphic, colorful, and designed to be transformable and multifunctional.
In addition to his own label, John collaborates with the iconic brand Tous Les Caleçons and the German sportswear brand Möbus.
John is a member of the Chambre Syndicale du Prêt-à-Porter des Couturiers et Créateurs and lives and works between Hamburg and Paris.
