In 1979, Michèle Lamy moved to New York and then settled in Los Angeles, where she set up a fashion line and ran two cult restaurants/nightclubs – Café des Artistes and Les Deux Cafés in 1996 with her first husband, experimental filmmaker Richard Newton. With her inked fingers and gold-plated teeth, she was an emblematic figure of nightlife in Los Angeles in the mid-1990s. Her tattoos were inspired by the Amazigh, during her first trip to Tunisia when she was around 17 or 18 years old.

In 1984, Lamy created a clothing line called Michele Lamy. She hired Rick Owens, who later became her business partner and eventually her companion and husband. In 2003, Lamy and Owens left Los Angeles to settle in Paris and got married in 2006. In 2004, the couple established their own fashion company Owenscorp, describing their business partnership as "asking a gypsy to organise a war with a fascist."
