[1][2] After studying fashion at the Norwegian School of Arts, Crafts and Design in Oslo, where he graduated, Per Spook arrived in Paris at the age of 20, where he entered the Chambre Syndicale de la Mode school.

He then worked as a freelance designer for several fashion houses, such as Christian Dior and Saint-Laurent, before joining Louis Féraud.

In 1977 he opened his own fashion house in Paris and the following year he received the Golden Needle for the most creative collection for autumn/winter 1978-1979.

His exhibitions are often marked by themes such as graphic patterns and inspiration from Nordic nature and climate.

He published a first book entitled "Per Spook, Haute couture 1977-1995" in which he photographed his 18 years of designs himself.
