Rag & Bone Since 2004

rag & bone is an American fashion brand sold in its own retail stores and more than 700 shops around the world.  Marcus Wainwright and Nathan Bogle co-founded the brand in 2002, and Wainwright stepped down as chief brand officer in July 2023. The brand's design oversight is shared between Jennie McCormick and Kyle Sweeney. As of April 2024, Guess and WHP Global own the brand.

Rag & Bone was founded in 2002 by Nathan Bogle and Marcus Wainwright.  In 2004 the label launched with a men's line and a women's line followed in 2005. In 2006, Bogle left the company and David Neville, who joined the company in 2005, became partner with Wainwright.

With the help of footwear designer Tull Price, former owner of Royal Elastics and current co-owner of FEIT, Rag & Bone Footwear was founded in 2008. Its footwear line includes the Newbury boot.

Today, it offers men's and women's ready-to-wear jeans (under rag & bone/JEAN), footwear and accessories. For their SS15 menswear collection, in lieu of a fashion show, they enlisted friends, including Jerry Seinfeld, Carmelo Anthony, Camille Rowe for a portrait photo series.

In October 2015, Wainwright and Neville, who previously spoke at the WWD Menswear Summit, were guest speakers at the WWD CEO Summit where they discussed the brand's trajectory and retail footprint, including their newly opened NY concept store, the General Store.

In October 2016, Rag & Bone expanded into fragrance with the launch of a line of eight unisex Eau de Parfums. In the same month, it also signed its first licensing deal for eyewear with Italian eyewear creator, Safio Group, beginning in January 2018.

In July 2023, Rag & Bone's Chief Merchandising and Design Officer Jennie McCormick took over oversight of womenswear, footwear, and accessories, while Senior Vice President of Design and Merchandising Kyle Sweeney took over menswear and merchandising.

In April 2024 Guess and WHP Global completed the acquisition of the brand.
