Sid Neigum

In March 2019, Vogue noted, "Sid Neigum's latest collection began with Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less, a book whose central philosophy revolves around paring things back to find the best path forward. The Canadian designer had read a translated quote from German industrial designer Dieter Rams: “Less, but better.” “It changed my life and kind of became the starting point of this collection,” Neigum said."

In April 2018, Forbes said, "Neigum's approach, which reflects his mathematical bent, soon won many fans. As Vogue put it recently, “Neigum's essential passion, as a designer, is for geometry; he's an innovative patternmaker, and his work is premised on a near-religious belief in the beauty and power of the golden ratio, a proportion he diligently works through his clothes.” With fashion lovers eager to buy his designs, Neigum broke $1 million in revenue as a solo entrepreneur."

In 2017, Neigum partnered with Pfaff Automotive to create bespoke luxury vehicles. These vehicles included an Audi Q7, BMW Alpina B7, and Porsche 911 Carrera S.

In March 2016, Maya Singer of Vogue said, "Sid Neigum is one to watch .... he's a designer as interested in creating a wardrobe as he is in indulging an intellectual pursuit."

In December 2016, Vogue named Neigum "One of 16 Designers who won 2016". Going on to say, "Neigum made his London Fashion Week debut in February with an inventive collection of sculptural gowns, camel hair capes, and rumpled jackets based on the golden ratio (1 x 1.618).... Neigum's clothes are conceptual and avant-garde, but they make sense for real life, too."
