R. Scott French '87

R. Scott French '87
Fashion Designer
R. Scott French
New York City, NY
Major: Fashion Design and Merchandising
Married to Laura.

From lingerie and pajamas to men's wear and women's wear, Scott has made a name for himself in the fashion industry. Reviews and articles about his designs have appeared in publications such as Maxim Magazine, The LA Times, Teen People magazine, Houston Chronicle, The Vancouver Sun and Italy's Milano Finanzia magazine, to name a few.

Early ventures for Scott included the co-founding of Betty Wear Lingerie, a high end, domestically produced, designer collection of sleepwear with a few bras to match, and French Jenny Lingerie, a division of Richard Leeds International, Inc. In both ventures, Scott partnered with fellow Albrightian Jennifer (Buckley) O'Connell '87.

Today, Scott finds himself swamped with orders for both his men's and women's collections. He produces clothes from a modern, non-traditional line of professional wear for men to a new women's collection that combines a stark, modern architecture with both form and function. His designs can be found in stores such as Modern Appealing Clothing (MAC) in San Francisco, Calif.; Fred Segal in Santa Monica, Calif.; Ciello in Philadelphia, Pa., Patricia Field in New York, N.Y., Salt Box in Japan and on the Internet at Guyshop and Sowear.com.
