There are a lot of designers out there that are making well-made, beautiful products that you’ll want to keep in your closet for years to come. One of the most popular among both men and women is Rag & Bone, which is well-known for their commitment to timeless British style with an American edge. Whether you’re looking for a pair of their famous jeans, tees, tanks, sweatshirts, sweaters, blazers, footwear, and more, you can expect the same quality materials and meticulous attention to detail in every item.

But what’s the story behind Rag & Bone, and who owns it? Glad you asked, because in today’s article we’re going to delve deeper into:

  • What is Rag & Bone?
  • Where to buy Rag & Bone
  • The Rag & Bone apparel your closet needs right now

What is Rag and Bone?

Who designs and owns Rag and Bone?

Rag and Bone on Instagram, menswear

Rag & Bone has been producing amazing, fashionable items for over 20 years. In 2002, Marcus Wainwright and Nathan Bogle launched the brand in New York City, and a menswear line followed in 2004, with womenswear not far behind in 2005. In 2006 David Neville replaced Nathan Bogle, and widened the company’s scope to include footwear, accessories, and their much-loved denim collection.

In July of 2023, Marcus Wainwright stepped down as chief brand officer, but will stay on as a board member and shareholder. The Chief Merchandising and Design Officer Jennie McCormick now oversees the Rag & Bone womenswear, footwear, and accessory designs, while Kyle Sweeney is now handling the menswear division. The firm is currently privately held, and will continue on with a very talented management team. This will be the first time that neither of the founders have a say in the day to day operation, but they are confident the team that is left will be able to carry on and continue to produce must-have Rag & Bone items.

What started out as a mission to create a great pair of men’s jeans has transformed into one of the most popular brands out there among celebs and regular people alike.

This is a great way to try out their designs without having to pay full price!

Rag and Bone jeans

These chic jeans look gorgeous with flats or heels.

Rag & Bone was built on the desire to create a great pair of jeans, which is why you can’t go wrong picking up any style. However, if you’re looking for something that can easily be dressed up or down, then you should pick up the Wren Slim Jean. Made with mid-weight stretch denim, you’ll love the stylish faded look as well as the ankle length. Complete with button closure and zip fly, these will be your new go-to jeans for brunch dates and evenings out.

Pair with a cute sweater and flats for daytime events, or add heels, a white tee, and a blazer for a look that’s perfect for evenings out.

Flare jeans that elevate your style are what you’ve been waiting for.

Your wardrobe definitely needs a pair of trending flare jeans if you don’t already have one! These Casey flare legged jeans are the perfect shade of indigo that’s sure to go with anything you already have. Made with stretch denim for an amazing fit, you’ll wonder why you didn’t purchase these jeans sooner. Featuring a sleek look that’s ultra-slimming, you’ll love the clean hem, five pockets, and easy to open/close zipper and washer rivet.

Pair these jeans with your favorite heels or boots, a body suit, and a blazer for a great office look that transitions easily to nighttime. Or keep it casual with chunky sneakers and a sweatshirt for days you need to run errands!

Rag and Bone sweaters

This cozy sweater was made for cooler temps!

When the temps cool and the seasons change to fall, it’s time to take out your favorite sweaters! If you don’t have a favorite one, it’s time to check out what Rag & Bone has to offer. This Holly Crew sweater is a great option, and features colors that are perfect for fall or winter. Made out of mid-weight fuzzy knit, you’ll love how soft this sweater feels against your skin. The crew neckline is timeless, and the long sleeves with dropped shoulders mean this isn’t too loose or too tight, but will hug you just right. You can easily wear this sweater on its own, but it’s also the perfect weight to wear a collared shirt underneath to dress it up for the office.

Need a little extra warmth on a cold day? Consider wearing a turtleneck or a mock turtleneck to add a little additional layer to keep you warm. This sweater would look great with jeans and sneakers for something casual, or with khakis and loafers for a more professional look.

Cardigans never seem to go out of style.

If there’s one item you should splurge on for yourself, it’s a cashmere sweater. The Durham cashmere sweater is something that is going to elevate your look for years to come, and will last season after season when cared for properly. You’ll not only love the luxe feel of cashmere, but also the recycled buttons, and the herringbone stitch—not to mention the classic silhouette of the cardigan never goes out of style.

Wear this warm sweater loosely over a tee and jeans for a super relaxed, casual look. Or you can make it more professional by buttoning it up and layering it with a turtleneck or a crisp white collared shirt.

Rag and Bone sneakers

Where has the time gone? Nicky is going into Grade Where has the time gone? Nicky is going into Grade 7 this year.
How has your first day gone, moms?
Nicky had to walk quite a bit today, lots of cars at the school. But we managed to get all the stationery etc on time. 

Happy new school year! I started back on my exercise routine and feeling a lot better.

We just spend some really fun few days in East Lon We just spend some really fun few days in East London.

I'm super blessed because although I've lost a husband, I haven't lost his family. And Nicky had a fab time with all the cousins.

"Humbled" I asked Nicky how he felt after a week "Humbled"

I asked Nicky how he felt after a week of Mzanzi, the interprovincial chess tournament. Nicky played Board 1 for Eastern Cape A team. That meant that he faced the top players in his age category from all over the country.

He won 3 and lost 3 for the team section.

Tuesday was especially brutal. Three rounds in one day (9am, 2pm and 7pm). 

He was also not well. Sore throat and coughing. We went to the doctor on Wednesday, missed the team photos and continued on with the individual competition.

The individual one can take up to four hours. Nicky was doing about an average of three. 

He won 2 and drew 4. From a starting rank of 6 he ended up 17. 

"They don't make any mistakes" he said. 

Last night we watched Mission Impossible with Tom Cruise getting himself out of the submarine. I told Nicky that whatever difficult position he finds himself in, he can do it. 

He drew the last one.

I'm super proud of him and what he has endured this week. It hasn't been easy. He has tried his best. And, like all the other chess parents, I've sat there and waited. 

For me it's not about where he came. It's the joy of the game. While the team prize giving went on, we played in the arcade. After the individual game was done we played in the escape room. (We totally weren't able to escape but it was an experience)

Wherever this chess journey takes him, I will follow and support. And always help him find the joy. ♟️

We went to Playland last night and had a lot of fu We went to Playland last night and had a lot of fun!
Nicky was big enough to go on the break dancer this year and I watched him go twice! He also loved that pendulum swing one. 
For me, I still love the big wheel the best.

On thing I am thrilled about: they had candy floss this year! Getting Nicky some of that was so cool because we used to do that as a child.

So long, Playland, and thanks for the memories!

The company was good, the food was the delicious and the insights were flowing.

One thing I took away was this: you must feel enough in yourself before other people think you are. 

I also had fun starting a vision board and painting.

We also had a secret Santa swap and I was blown away by @nakita21 's amazing gift. She embellished a notebook, manicure set and cup with the themes of the workshop: dream, design and do.

No more excuses now for me with this powerhouse of inspiration behind me!
