Margot Robbie's Bold Fashion Choice Stuns at European Premiere

## Overview Ralph & Russo is a British luxury fashion house renowned for its haute couture and ready-to-wear collections, luxury goods, and accessories[1]. Founded by Australian duo Tamara Ralph (Creative Director) and Michael Russo (CEO), the brand quickly ascended from a modest London atelier to a globally recognized name in high fashion[1][6]. Its clientele includes international celebrities, royalty, and billionaires, cementing its status as a go-to for exclusive, handcrafted luxury[6]. ## History Ralph & Russo was established in 2006 (with some sources citing 2007 or 2010, but the most authoritative sources agree on 2006)[1][5]. The founders, partners in both business and life, started with little more than a sewing machine and a few hundred pounds, growing the business organically through word of mouth and private commissions[4][6]. Their early strategy involved reinvesting each client’s payment into materials for the next order, a testament to their bootstrap beginnings[5]. The brand’s breakthrough came in 2014, when it became the first British fashion house in over a century to receive accreditation from the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture, earning a coveted spot on the Paris couture calendar—an honor so exclusive that brands cannot apply but must be invited[1][3]. This milestone made Tamara Ralph the first female British creative director in nearly 100 years to show during Paris Haute Couture Week[3]. ## Key Achievements - **Global Expansion**: Ralph & Russo opened flagship boutiques in London, Paris, Monaco, Doha, and Dubai, with plans for further expansion into the US and Asia[1][3]. - **High-Profile Clientele**: The brand’s designs have been worn by Meghan Markle (notably for her engagement photos), further elevating its profile[6][8]. - **Industry Recognition**:
