Harvey Weinstein's scandal is a massive blow to his fashion designer wife: 'No star is ever going to want to wear the brand again'

Allegations against film producer Harvey Weinstein have put his wife, fashion designer Georgina Chapman, in a difficult position.

Chapman's career as co-founder of Marchesa is tightly tied to her husband's success. Stars of Weinstein-backed productions including Renée Zellweger, Cate Blanchett, and Blake Lively have all worn Marchesa on the red carpet, and rumors have floated for years that Weinstein pushed actresses to wear the fashion brand.

But, with a growing number of allegations of sexual harassment and assault perpetrated by Weinstein, many are wondering if Marchesa will disappear from the red carpet.

"No star is ever going to want to wear the brand again," an anonymous New York fashion publicist told the Hollywood Reporter on Monday, after Weinstein was ousted from the company he co-founded.

Here's the story of how Chapman's Marchesa became a red carpet mainstay - and how her fate became intertwined with her husband's.
