I am so happy about this, I had the pleasure of scaring Ozwald Boateng half to death when I saw him on Portebello Rd. I nearly died of shock. But he was sweet and polite which made me like him even more!

British-born designer Ozwald Boateng has been appointed creative director of Givenchy menswear. He will show his first collection in June 2005.


While studying computing at Southwark College, he was introduced to cutting and designing clothes by his girlfriend at the time. Using his mother’s old sewing machine, he started designing and selling clothes to his fellow students. At sixteen he sold his first collection to a menswear shop in Covent Garden, and by the time he was twenty-three he had set himself up full time in business
