Marta Goldschmied
La Ribelle
Marta was born in Italy and moved to LA with her family at a very young age (12).”I didn’t know any English. My mom dropped us off at school and everyone thought I was so stuck up because I didn’t talk to anyone, but I didn’t know how”. Now years later she is considered a fashion royalty, being the daughter of AG, and an Insta All-Star. Since 2015 she launched her own brand MADE GOLD, a team of all girls with the idea that clothes do not define the wearer, but the wearer defines the clothes. With the “A” in her logo replaced by the triangular three-dot symbol for “Mi Vida Loca” (my crazy life) suggested by her sister, artist Glenda Goldschmied, MADE GOLD is betting on making history, not relying on it.
Designer, lately work has become my whole life so there has not been much fun.
I left Italy with my family when I was young so I did not have much of a choice but I am glad I ended up in Los Angeles.
My favorite memory is driving on Mulholland Drive during a summer sunset.
I chose these jeans because they were inspired by all the subcultures in the city I love, so they seemed perfect for the project.
I think it is fun to see why and how all these Italians ended up in the States.
I left Italy that I was so young that I feel more of a style ambassador for LA.
