about
He introduced his own bold, sexually-charged menswear line in 1992 and added his first hard-edged womenswear collection called "Butch Femme" five years later.
He also had an agreement with their sister concern Genny to produce the John Bartlett collections worldwide. His 2000 collection was shown in Florence, Italy, with a live falcon swooping over the audience (without any casualties).
John was not seen for two years, after closing his business due to financial problems.
John Bartlett's clothes are intended to be sexy. He himself says so. He has a "mad housewife" dress which is a wrap-over with a full skirt, and "sleazy" tank tops that are made to be worn with wide cut trousers. He describes this look as "sweet sinister".
