About The Archive Hollywood

Where Iconic Fashion History Lives On

The Archive Hollywood is a one-of-a-kind costume and fashion rental showroom founded by legendary designer Marco Marco. Located in the heart of Hollywood, our showroom is a curated vault of show-stopping wardrobe pieces pulled from red carpets, music tours, TV sets, and fashion editorials. It’s more than a rental space—it’s a living history of pop culture, queer creativity, and celebrity fashion.

Our Mission

We exist to empower stylists, performers, and creatives with extraordinary fashion. From gender-inclusive clothing to designer statement pieces, our collection honors the art of self-expression, performance, and legacy. Whether you’re dressing a drag queen, a pop star, or a visionary campaign—you’ll find the unforgettable here.

The Story Behind Marco Marco

Marco Marco (Marco Morante) is a two-time Emmy Award-winning costume designer with over 20 years of experience crafting custom looks for the world’s most visible entertainers. Known for bold silhouettes, futuristic detailing, and unapologetic flair, Marco’s designs have graced the stages of:

  • Britney Spears
  • Nicki Minaj
  • Doja Cat
  • Fergie
  • RuPaul’s Drag Race

As a queer-owned business, Marco Marco has redefined what inclusive fashion looks like—celebrating all bodies, all genders, and all levels of fabulous.

From Stage to Showroom

Over the years, Marco’s studio became a treasure trove of performance wear, celebrity costumes, and one-of-a-kind editorial looks. Rather than let them live in storage, Marco launched The Archive Hollywood—a fashion rental showroom for stylists, drag queens, costume designers, and creative professionals.

Now, you can rent from a living archive of history-making wardrobe moments—outfits that have been photographed by Steven Klein, walked the VMAs red carpet, or lit up a Las Vegas residency.

Located in the Heart of Hollywood

The Archive Hollywood is designed for in-person exploration. Appointments allow for one-on-one styling, fittings, and garment pulls with the discretion and detail your project deserves.
