Malcolm Garrett (born 1956) is a British graphic designer who worked with Duran Duran from 1981 to 1986 as part of the Assorted iMaGes firm, participating in almost all of their design decisions, from album and single covers to tour programmes and calendars. The distinctive sleeves that Garrett designed include their first four albums: the crisp logo and photo on the white cover of Duran Duran, the sharp overlays on the Patrick Nagel painting for Rio, the exotic maps and symbols on Seven and the Ragged Tiger, (together with Keith Breeden), and the geometric textures of the album Arena.

Garrett was an author (with Kasper de Graaf) and designer for the 1982 book Duran Duran: Their Story, and the pair worked together again for the 2005 book Duran Duran Unseen featuring the photography of Paul Edmond. He has also done design for books such as Sing Blue Silver and Arena - The Book, and for the board game Into The Arena.
