Marilyn Manson and wife Lindsay attend Enfants Riches Déprimés event at Maxfield LA


Los Angeles brand Enfants Riches Déprimés is currently showcasing their Spring 2024 collection at Maxfield LA, and the event was attended by Marilyn Manson and his wife Lindsay on April 17th.

On March 16th, Manson posted photos on his social media wearing the Enfants Riches Déprimés brand, which is French for "Depressed Rich Kids". Enfants Riches Déprimés is a Los Angeles and Paris based luxury fashion brand founded in 2012 by the conceptual artist Henri Alexander Levy, who has created a French punk streetwear line based on the movements of the late 1970s and Japanese Avant-garde movements of the 1980s.

One of the core precepts of the brand is high price points, with T-shirts ranging on average from $500 to $1,000, and haute couture jackets priced as high as $95,000. ERD consistently utilizes the business model of artificial scarcity. In this regard, all styles are sold on an extremely exclusive basis, and thus in relatively small quantities.

In a 2016 interview with Complex Magazine, Henri Alexander said about his brand that, "The best way for me to explain the brand is elitist, nihilist couture (…) The price point eliminates the masses, and the ideas eliminate the people who I don't want, generally, in it, due to the dark nature."

The juxtaposition of "elitist" and "punk", which normally would be at complete odds with each other, fits well with Marilyn Manson, whose very name and essence is designed with a similar aim.
 
While at this event, Manson and Lindsay were captured in various photos, and they both shared in their Instagram stories a photo with the founder of the brand Henri Alexander himself.
