Monday Muse - Diane Kruger

Monday Muse - Ashley Graham
We started Monday Muse in 2013 to celebrate the complex beauty and depth of a woman, and to highlight the diverse meanings one can bring to the word feminine. From day one, our brand has believed that having more women...
Monday Muse – Barbara Bush
It is with great pride that I call this week’s Monday Muse a dear friend and constant source of inspiration – Barbara Bush. I’ve known Barbara for many years and have long admired her commitment to human rights lobbying, gay rights activism,...
Monday Muse - Juliette Binoche

Monday Muse – Liya Kebede
Our Spring 2014 Campaign launched last month, featuring Liya Kebede PRABAL GURUNG is a brand just as much inspired by women of substance, grace and intangible beauty, as it is a brand established to inspire the same. As has often...
Monday Muse – Angelina Jolie

Monday Muse – Cate Blanchett
Last weekend, I went to see Woody Allen’s Blue Jasmine featuring Cate Blanchett and I walked out instantly knowing who our next Monday Muse would be. Cate’s performance stayed with me for days. Haunting, compelling and raw, it was one...
Monday Muse: On Women, Power and Fashion
