Not notable. Some coverage but insufficient to satisfy the GNG. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:49, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I see it has just been substantially expanded by the creator with new sources and now appears to satisfy the GNG. I withdraw my nomination. Philafrenzy (talk) 13:45, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep/comment - Having his work selected as representative of an entire year in fashion by one of the world's leading fashion museums is no small potatoes. The article is very expandable and the designer has been active since the 1960s, with his work featured in the Victoria and Albert Museum's Sixties Fashion exhibition as an example of the 60s menswear revolution (see here.) Thirty years later, one of his suits was chosen as THE look of 1995 by Bath. He definitely counts. Mabalu (talk) 11:58, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The nomination has already been withdrawn. It just needs someone uninvolved to close it. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:18, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
