In 1992, he took up the title of perfumer with his iconic Angel, hailed for its reinvention of gourmand fragrance. As a photographer, he published two books in 1998,. He would also go on to direct short films, advertising films and video clips, including the music video for George Michael’s 1992 dance-pop hit “Too Funky.”
Perhaps most memorable was his 1995 Fall Haute Couture Collection, famously referred to as the “Woodstock of Fashion.” Held at the Cirque d’Hiver in Paris,was a celebration of the brand’s 20th anniversary and featured a performance by James Brown and cameos by Tippi Hedren and Patty Hearst, to name a few.
Mugler became famously reclusive after retiring from the industry in 2002 — going by his first name, Manfred, instead of Thierry — and underwent a physical transformation. “The physical mutation was a sort of return to myself — a repairing and reconstruction, too,” he once said.
“The term genius is thrown around far too lightly these days, but in my opinion Mugler was one of a handful of true genius designers of the last 50 years who deserved that title and more. I know his name and his work will be discussed, studied and revered for centuries to come,” wrote Canadian model Coco Rocha
