For the spring/summer season, Bulgari further explores its Serpenti theme. Inspired by the power and dynamism of the serpent, this design was frst seen as a snake-shaped bracelet watch in the 1940s and the symbol has continued to grow in popularity throughout the decades, having been seen across jewellery, leather goods, timepieces and eyewear collections. On these Serpenti sunglasses a green, enamel snake’s tail weaves through the crystal-studded golden scales that adorn the arms, while the oversized cat’s eye frames are realised in patterned acetate. glBulgari, KaDeWe, Tauentzienstrasse 21-24, 10789 Berlin, +49 (0)30 2360 9360, bulgari.com

Impressive details, including intricately engraved mirror plating, embossed buttons, and cotton and silk Airtex jacket linings, are the result of Jones’s extensive fabric research and mark this season’s menswear collection as one of Louis Vuitton’s best crafted to date. rpLouis Vuitton, Kurfürstendamm 56-57, 10707 Berlin, +49 (0)30 882 5272, louisvuitton.com * for map go to page 82

FUTURE PERFECT
At the Paris Fashion Week catwalk show for his ffth major Dior womenswear show, Raf Simons installed a mirrored tent at the Louvre’s Cour Carrée. The tent was constructed in such a way that it seemed as if the venue had vanished, but it is testament to his skill as a designer that this dramatic fourish did little to distract from the clothes. Simons gave new life to Dior favourites such as the Bar jacket and the new look silhouette to stunning efect. The prevalence of white on the catwalk, from cotton smocks to billowing coats, gave the show a futuristic and almost clinical edge that is perfect for this season. thDior, KaDeWe, Tauentzienstrasse 21-24, 10789 Berlin, +49 (0)30 2360 7004, dior.com

In a city of diverse neighbourhoods with

two of Berlin’s most high-profle retail spaces
ofer such diferent shopping experiences.
The independent spirit of Bikini Berlin
and the glossy spaces of the Mall of Berlin
showcase the city’s inimitable combination
of high fashion and individual style.
Since opening in April 2014, Bikini
Berlin has fast become a hub for the city’s
famed creative community as well as for
fans of contemporary design. The distinctive
building on Budapester Strasse, built in
1957, was formerly part of the city’s zoo
complex; the glass section between its
upper and lower foors gave the building
its nickname, Bikinihaus (Bikini House).
It has since been transformed by German

developers Bayerische Hausbau and Belgian

unconventional space, the Bikini Berlin team
was determined to create an unconventional
retail experience. ‘Bikini Berlin sees itself
as a concept mall, a compilation of carefully
curated and coordinated boutiques, concept
and fagship stores,’ says Kai-Uwe Ludwig,
CEO of Bayerische Hausbau.
The ground foor features popular brands
such as Carhartt WIP, Vans and Gant, as well
as restaurants, design and electronic stores,
and 19 ‘boxes’: these small wooden spaces are
available as pop-up shops for new designers and
entrepreneurs, and can be rented for up to one
year; recent tenants include a blow-dry salon
and eyebrow bar, a puzzle shop, an artisan
stationery store and a forist. Well-known labels
such as Alessi, Weleda, Laurèl and Bugaboo
have also opened pop-ups here, alongside local
brands including ethical fashion label Folkdays,
Mercy Would eyewear, tie specialist Edsor
Berlin and jewellery label Nallik.
With a groundswell of young design talent
across the city ‘it’s important that malls and
designers work closely with each other,’ says

scene. Through its initiatives, Bikini Berlin

need consumerism anymore, but much more about a consumption of experiences. Therefore, shopping becomes an element of leisure time and competes against other leisure activities.’ To cater to the growing need for experiential shopping trips, Bikini Berlin’s complex also includes a cinema, rooftop park, gallery and a hotel, 25hours.
Meanwhile, at the Mall of Berlin, the experience provided is based on the sheer scale of the project, as well as its historical location. Opened in September 2014, the Mall of Berlin is a very recent addition to Germany’s roster of shopping centres. Built on the site of Wertheim, once Germany’s largest department store, the new mall is impressively vast, with 270 shops currently spread over 76,000 square metres. It presently houses the country’s largest food court and developer Harald G Huth has announced that 50 stores will be added during 2015, which will make this Germany’s most extensive mall, at 135,000 square metres.
Occupying the area around Potsdamer Platz, Leipziger Platz and Wilhelmstrasse,
the Mall of Berlin consists of four foors, which are flled with popular fashion labels such as H&M, Mango and Zara, big brands including Nike, Aldi and C&A and a clutch of premium labels; Hugo Boss, Karl Lagerfeld and Strenesse all feature.
Huth also recognises the importance of ofering additional attractions, and the Mall of Berlin boasts restaurants along its terraced edges, as well as a lifestyle complex which will include rental apartments, a running track and rooftop garden.
‘These two malls, with their diferent approaches to labels and designers, make it possible for everybody to realise their own style,’ says Schweisselmann. ‘Because of the wide range of shops, everyone is able to fnd something that expresses their personality.’

Berlin Fashion Week is increasingly ofering a global perspective as international
designers make their mark on the city’s catwalks. Sally McIlhone reports
It almost goes without saying that German fashion is known for its functionality and minimalism. From the faultless tailoring of Hugo Boss to the sober sophistication of Jil Sander, German designers are known and loved for rejecting the frivolous and over fussy in favour of streamlined simplicity. Bucking this trend, a tribe of international designers descended upon the catwalks of Berlin Fashion Week, bringing with it punchy prints, oversized silhouettes and a fresh approach to texture. With these bold new designers commanding the attention of Germany’s fashion

commentators, one thing’s for certain: the event will never be the same again.
Central to this shift in Berlin Fashion Week’s aesthetic has been Africa Fashion Day Berlin, a celebration of African design hosted amid the main show schedule. Founded by Beatrace Angut Oola in 2012, AFDB was inspired by a trip to Uganda. ‘I was there from 2009 to 2010 and was totally impressed by the flm, music and design scenes,’ she explains. ‘As I work as a stylist, I have always attended Berlin Fashion Week and had noticed that African fashion is not represented at all.

For spring/summer 2015, AFDB
showcased the talents of the Nigerian print

Ghanaian designer Nana K Brenu, and the
masterful knitwear creations of Maxhosa by
Laduma. After single-handedly creating and
building the event, it’s easy to understand why
Oola refers to herself as a ‘pioneer’. After just
two years, AFDB has carved out a niche for
itself and shows no signs of losing momentum:
‘We are giving designers the best platform in
Europe to get access to the fashion industry,’
says Oola.

working as a stylist and an interior designer
and a period of employment at Vogue UK.
Soboye’s spring/summer 2015 collection stood
out from the crowd thanks to the designer’s
use of powerful patterns, leather and a strong
accessory selection – from printed headscarves
and baseball caps to leather visors. ‘Designing
my own collection was a way to express a
diferent part of my creativity,’ Soboye explains.
‘I love to mix colours and clash prints to create
an alternative style of dressing that is eye-
catching and bold. I feel happiest in my own
designs and I like the reaction I get when people
see me in my clothes.’
Certain elements of Soboye’s work refect
current trends but rather than interpret these
movements in the muted tones favoured
by traditional German fashion stalwarts,
Africa Fashion Day Berlin has provided a catalyst for striking, colourful collections to start storming the catwalks and shake up the German fashion industry

‘I like sports luxe and had a few items that
embrace that trend, but obviously the prints
are so strong that they make much more of
a statement and have a great impact on the
catwalk,’ he says. ‘It’s good to stand out and
make a lasting impression.’
Another designer who has impressed
at Berlin Fashion Week is Roshi Porkar.
Her spring/summer 2015 collection featured
oversized silhouettes designed to echo the
shape of the princesses of Bactria statuettes,
which were created around 4,000 years ago

Tactile oyster-toned dresses with exaggerated
hips and ladylike faux fur-panelled coatdresses
were collection highlights, and with Haider
Ackermann and Tilda Swinton in attendance
at the catwalk show, Porkar’s star is clearly
in ascendance.

minimalist pieces featured, with clean lines
and strong structures, yet the standout pieces
featured a head-turning goldfsh print in
blue, yellow and red. ‘It’s a good sign that
Berlin Fashion Week is getting more and
more international and that international
designers are showing in Berlin and using it
as a platform,’ Le says. ‘Berlin has amazing
designers, such as Vladimir Karaleev, Perret
Schaad and Sissi Götze to name just a few.’
As Berlin Fashion Week’s major players
continue to be cited as inspiration for a new
generation of designers from all over the
world, the event’s global perspective never
fails to captivate. Africa Fashion Day Berlin
has provided a catalyst for striking, colourful
collections to start storming the catwalks
and shake up the German fashion industry.
As Oola puts it, ‘This is the start of something
big for the next generation.’

Lef: La Berlinoise collection by Kaviar Gauche, spring/summer 2015
‘Our collections are based on contradictions. We love women who are chic and feminine yet still have a sense of rebellion.’ The designers behind Kaviar Gauche have been breaking fashion rules since they set up the label in Berlin 10 years ago. In fact, the brand entered the international style world through an act of rebellion, when Alexandra Fischer-Roehler and Johanna Kühl debuted their collection with a guerrilla catwalk show on the street outside Parisian concept store Colette in 2004.
Since then, Kaviar Gauche has shown twice in Paris, as part of the main schedule: its spring/summer 2015 show was ‘successful and sensational,’ say the designers.
‘Showing in Paris is quite diferent to Berlin,’ they add. ‘In Paris, we have to convince an international audience that may have never heard of us before. In Germany, you could ask an unfashionable elderly woman in one of the smaller towns and she would probably know who we are.’

The current Kaviar Gauche collection is a culmination of the designers’ influences and inspirations
It’s true to say that Kaviar Gauche is well-
known worldwide and that its typical clientele
is far more glamorous than the average German
granny. Strong, beautiful and talented women
are the target audience for the label, and its fans
include Heike Makatsch and Rosie Huntington-
Whiteley. The label’s aesthetic is ‘feminine
avant-garde with a modern glamour, combined
with elements of rock ’n’ roll’, and the designers
say they would love to see Keira Knightly and
Joséphine de la Baume wearing their creations.
For spring/summer 2015, the women have
produced a collection that can be seen as a
culmination of all the experiences, infuences
and inspirations they have shared in the last

decade. The collection strikes a perfect balance
between masculine and feminine styles: expect
feminine silhouettes paired with opulent
oversized elements and fowing volume with
displaced shapes, executed in a palette of
intense yet soft colours.
Inspiration comes from a range of sources
but Berlin is a constant presence in the label’s
pieces. ‘Besides the people who infuence our
working process and our designs, our beloved
city Berlin gives us moments, impressions
and ideals which conduct the style of Kaviar
Gauche,’ says Kühl. ‘But even so, diferent
cities, especially Paris, also deliver moments
and ideas which are responsible for our
inspiration.’ The label commemorated its
long association with Berlin during its 10th
anniversary celebrations, holding a special
show in the city: ‘It felt right to do this in
Berlin so we were able to invite a lot of people
who were believers and supporters from the
very frst moment.’
Since graduating in fashion design from
Esmod in Paris, Kühl and Fischer-Roehler
have become known for the efortlessly chic
nature of their work. The label’s name is
taken from a French expression. ‘It’s based
on “gauche caviar”, which can be translated
into Champagne socialist. It pretty much
describes our design and consumer

philosophy,’ Fischer-Roehler explains. Kaviar Gauche’s collections often feature an intriguing interplay between textures, transparency and volume, helping to create a look that combines cool seduction with modern glamour. Couture detailing and the incorporation of luxury fabrics add a touch of exclusivity.
The label’s wide recognition within Germany can be attributed to a series of high-profle collaborations. In 2008, Kühl and Fischer-Roehler produced an exclusive collection for the Karstadt group, featuring 1970s-inspired dresses, tunics and blouses; they launched a shoe range for Görtz in 2010 and produced a limited-edition cosmetics bag for natural beauty company Dr Hauschka.
A shared understanding forms the basis of any partnership: ‘It just needs to be a ft. The other company needs to be convinced by our aesthetic. Otherwise it will not work,’

the designers explain. ‘Of course it is still a co-operation and you cannot ignore the partners’ wishes, but they have to trust us. The projects that have been based on these principles were very successful.’
Collaboration is something Kühl and Fischer-Roehler excel at, having worked together for 10 years with minimal creative
diferences. ‘Of course, sometimes we have diferent opinions, but it is quite rare as we trust each other.’
The infuence of two creative minds may account for the duality that has become a trademark of the label; the spring/summer 2015 collection plays with contrasts, pairing casual drapery with strong geometric shapes to great efect.
It’s a winning formula and the label shows no sign of a loss of momentum after reaching its 10th anniversary. ‘We are planning to expand on the international market,’ the designers confde. ‘Licence deals are being sorted out right now and we are planning to open more mono-label stores; our stores have been very successful.’
It seems that Germany’s fashion rebels are becoming respected members of the global style community kaviargauche.com

TABLE TALK
Berlin’s design expertise extends to its restaurants and bars, as Isabella Redmond Styles fnds out
Berlin is known for its cutting-edge approach to design. One of the leading cities of the Bauhaus art movement, it has a long history of innovation and creativity. Although this is most obviously experienced through its art galleries and concept stores, Berlin’s restaurants also have a strong focus on design, meaning that diners can enjoy their meal surrounded by scintillating art works and outstanding interior design. From an ultra-modern venue complete with a waterfall to perfect examples of industrial chic and a spot-on facsimile of 1920s Paris, design is the last word in dining in Berlin.

Part of the regeneration of the Bötzow Brewery in Prenzlauer Berg, La Soupe Populaire exemplifes industrial chic. The space is decorated with antiques and items from fea markets and the dining area overlooks an exhibition space, making for interesting mealtime conversations. In keeping with the surroundings, classic German food is reimagined here: a traditional dish of eggs in mustard sauce is reworked as a perfectly poached egg in a rich mustard sauce with a sprinkling of char caviar, and La Soupe Populaire’s rendition of Königsberger
klopse, an historic Prussian meatball dish, is outstanding. La Soupe Populaire, Prenzlauer Allee 242, 10405 Berlin, +49 (0)30 4431 9680, lasoupepopulaire.deP

Located on the banks of the Spree, Sage
occupies a picturesque outside space complete
with a man-made beach. However, some of
the restaurant’s best features are found inside.
The restaurant occupies a former factory and
the interior features exposed industrial fttings
which contrast with sleek, modern touches
and art installations. A menu of international
favourites such as steak, pizza and pasta
are available alongside a more experimental
weekly menu which includes unusual seasonal
favour combinations.

The perfect antidote to modern minimalism,
this popular French restaurant in Prenzlauer
Berg is elaborately decorated, making diners
feel as if they have stepped into Paris in the
1920s. Beautiful tiles and candle light add
to the appeal, while the overall feel at Poulette
is one of romance. The food is classically
French and expertly executed. Opt for the
chef’s suggestions of foie gras crème brûlée with
poached apple and brioche, followed by glazed
ginger duck breast. Accompany your meal
with a bottle from the impressive wine list.

The Pearl, a bar, nightclub and events space
located across the road from Theater des
Westens in elegant Charlottenburg, promises
a very glamorous after-dark experience.
Visitors can marvel at the 10-metre waterfall
while sipping one of the Pearl’s cocktails:
try the refreshing Basil Smash or the
Salted Lebowski, a mix of vodka, Kahlua,
caramel, milk and sea salt. Eye-catching light
installations and an LED foor make dancing
until the early hours difcult to resist.

BUCHERER
Heritage watchmaker H Moser & Cie
and fne jeweller Bucherer have a lot in
common. These independent companies
from German-speaking areas of Switzerland
were founded in the 19th century and so it is
natural that they are long-time collaborators.
Their most recent project is the Venturer
Small Seconds Bucherer Edition. In white
gold and with a 1960s convex design,
the watch is inspired by H Moser & Cie’s
historic pocket watches. Be sure to seek out
this watch while in Berlin, as it is exclusively
available in Bucherer boutiques in Germany,
Switzerland and Austria.

MYKITA
While east Berlin has long been thought
of as the city’s trendier half, the recent
redevelopment of Bikini-Haus into an über-
chic mall is challenging such preconceptions.
This modern shopping centre features
independent stores and quirky boutiques.
Visit the German eyewear brand Mykita,
whose store celebrates the building’s original
1950s character while incorporating its
signature white wall on which the latest
styles, all made in Germany, are displayed.
An in-house optometrist is on hand to
provide expert advice about the lenses and
frames ofered by the brand.

Describing itself as ‘not just another
bookstore’, Ocelot ensures that visitors
arrive with high expectations, and this shop
combined with a café doesn’t disappoint.
The interior, by a local designer, is chic and
understated while the café serves excellent
cofee from Kreuzberg’s Espressolounge.
Customers are encouraged to take their time
to browse Ocelot’s impressive collection of
literature, non-fction, graphic novels and
comics. Look out for the readings, concerts
and exhibitions which are also held here.

Недавно открывшиеся шоппинг-моллы Bikini Berlin и Mall of Berlin помогают городу завоевать титул одного из лучших направлений Европы, утверждает Гвинет Холланд
В городе, где в каждом районе можно найти свою уникальную шоппинг-специализацию, вполне естественно, что две самые известные берлинские площадки пытаются предоставить сервисы, которых нет у других. Мятежный дух Bikini Berlin и сверкающие залы Mall of Berlin демонстрируют неподражаемую комбинацию высокой моды и индивидуального стиля города.
После своего открытия в апреле 2014 Bikini Berlin быстро превратился в центр креативного сообщества Берлина и стал культовым среди поклонников современного дизайна. Яркое здание на Budapester Strasse, построенное в 1957 году, изначально являлось частью комплекса городского зоопарка; стеклянная секция между его нижним и верхним этажами определила

прозвище здания – Bikinihaus (Бикини Дом). С тех пор он был преобразован немецкими застройщиками Bayerische Hausbau и бельгийским архитектурным агентством SAQ в торговый, гостиничный и развлекательный центр. В таком необычном помещении команда Bikini Berlin постаралась создать неординарный ритейл концепт. «Bikini Berlin является концепт-моллом, группой тщательно отобранных и координированных бутиков, концепт и флагманских магазинов», - говорит Кай-Уве Людвиг, глава Bayerische Hausbau.
На первом этаже вы найдете такие популярные бренды, как Carhartt, Vans и Gant, а также рестораны, магазины дизайна и электроники и 19 «коробок»: эти небольшие деревянные помещения используются в качестве временных магазинов для новых дизайнеров и предпринимателей на период от трех месяцев до одного года. Сейчас их занимают студия красоты, салон для оформления бровей, магазин пазлов, канцтовары и

Берлинская неделя моды завоевывает статус международной, благодаря известным дизайнерам, которые приезжают в город на показы. Рассказывает Салли МакИлхон
Всем прекрасно известно, что немецкая мода славится своей функциональностью и минимализмом. От безупречного кроя Hugo Boss до строгой утончённости Jil Sander, немецкие дизайнеры узнаваемы и любимы за отказ от фривольности и излишней вычурности в пользу чёткой простоты. В отличии от них, европейские и американские бренды, начав показывать

Мировой Класс
цветочный магазин. Здесь свои временные бутики также открыли такие известные лейблы, как Alessi, Weleda, Laurèl и Bugaboo, наряду с местным брендом этнической одежды Folkdays, оптикой Mercy Would, специалистами в сфере галстуков Edsor Berlin и ювелирным брендом Nallik.
Учитывая огромное количество молодых гениев в городе, «очень важно, чтобы моллы и дизайнеры плотно работали вместе», - говорит Лиза Швайссельманн, редактор Cropped Magazine, блога, посвященного модной сцене Берлина. С помощью своих мероприятий Bikini Berlin представляет новых талантливых дизайнеров на суд публики, что импонирует таким людям, как èйран Дюфур и Мария Зиманн, которые регулярно организовывают Voodoo Market, события, на которых демонстрируются вещи восходящих звезд моды. èни утверждают, что такой подход Bikini Berlin «помогает продвигать культовый молодежный стиль, которым так славится наш город».
Помимо того, что моллы помогают посетителям открывать для себя новые бренды, они также обязаны производить определенные «впечатления». «Мы наблюдаем социальную перемену в поведении покупателей, - говорит Людвиг. – Речь уже не идет об обычном консюмеризме, а больше – о положительных впечатлениях об обслуживании. Таким образом, шоппинг становится элементом досуга и соперничает с другими видами времяпрепровождения». Для того, чтобы полностью отвечать всем капризам посетителей, комплекс Bikini Berlin включает в себя кинотеатр, парк на крыше, галерею и отель.
Тем временем в Mall of Berlin предлагаемые впечатления основаны на масштабе проекта, а также на его историческом расположении. èткрывшийся в сентябре 2014 года Mall of Berlin – последнее добавление к списку шоппинг-центров Германии. Построенный на площадке Wertheim, когда-то крупнейшем универмаге Германии, новый молл впечатляет своим размером: 270 магазинов простерлись на территории в 76,000 кв.м. Здесь находится самый крупный в стране
ресторанный двор. Застройщики Harald G Huth объявили о том, что еще 50 магазинов появятся здесь в течение 2015 года, что сделает его самым крупным моллом в Германии с площадью в 135,000 кв.м.
Расположившийся вокруг Potsdamer Platz, Leipziger Platz и Wilhelmstrasse этот молл занимает четыре этажа, представляющие популярные модные лейблы, такие как H&M, Mango и Zara, крупными брендами типа Nike, Aldi и C&A и группой премиум марок, включая Boss, Karl Lagerfeld и Strenesse. Huth также понимают важность дополнительных услуг и развлечений, поэтому Mall of Berlin может похвастаться рядом ресторанов по всему периметру его террасы, а также - пристроенным комплексом, в который войдут съемные квартиры, дорожка для кросса и сад на крыше.
«Эти два молла с их разными подходами к лейблам и дизайнерам помогают всем найти свой собственный стиль, - говорит Швайссельманн. – Благодаря огромному выбору магазинов каждый может найти все необходимое для самовыражения».
Являетесь ли вы фанатом быстрой моды, дизайнерских лейблов или новых брендов, два крупнейших молла в Германии точно придутся вам по вкусу. bikiniberlin.de, voodoomarket.de, malloferlin.de

на Берлинской неделе моды, принесли с собой яркие принты, объёмные силуэты и новый подход к текстуре. После волны интереса со стороны ключевых деятелей модной индустрии, стало очевидно: это мероприятие уже никогда не будет прежним.
Основным толчком к реформации эстетики Берлинской недели моды послужил «Модный день Африки в Берлине»( Africa Fashion Day Berlin). Он посвящен африканскому дизайну и проходит наряду с основными показами. Учреждённый Беатрис Ангут Оола в 2012 году AFDB был вдохновлён поездкой в Уганду. «Я жила там с 2009 по 2010 год и была сильно впечатлена индустрией кинематографа, музыки и дизайна», – объясняет Беатрис. «Будучи стилистом, я всегда посещала Берлинскую неделю моды и заметила, что африканская мода на ней не представлена вовсе. Я считаю важным интегрировать ее в немецкую индустрию и дать развиваться».
В сезоне весна-лето 2015 на AFDB мы увидели талантливые работы нигерийского мастера принтов Samson Soboye, бренд 1981 от искусного ганского дизайнера Nana K Brenu и великолепные вязаные изделия от Maxhosa by Laduma. Оола называет себя «первопроходцем» - в этом нет ничего удивительного, ведь она в одиночку создала мероприятие. Всего два года спустя AFDB нашел собственную нишу и не собирается сдавать обороты: «Мы даём дизайнерам доступ к лучшей платформе в Европе, через которую они проникают в модную индустрию», – говорит Оола.
Самсон Собойе - один из тех счастливчиков, кому помог AFDB. Его карьера в сфере модного дизайна началась с работы стилиста, дизайнера интерьеров и временной должности в Vogue UK. Коллекция Собойе весна-лето 2015 выделялась на фоне остальных, благодаря использованным дизайнером ярким узорам, коже и разнообразных аксессуаров – от головных платков и кепок с принтом до кожаных козырьков. «Создание моей собственной коллекции стало способом выражения другой стороны моей креативности, – объясняет Собойе – Я
люблю смешивать цвета и принты, что дает альтернативный яркий и смелый стиль. Моя одежда делает меня счастливым, и мне очень нравится реакция людей, когда они видят меня в моих нарядах».
Некоторые элементы работы Собойе отражают и модные тенденции. Но вместо того, чтобы интерпретировать их в приглушенном тоне, как это делают традиционные немецкие дома, дизайнер предпочитает вносить в них нечто своё. «Мне нравится стиль спорт-люкс, и я сделал несколько вещей, которые следуют этому тренду, но, очевидно, их принты настолько яркие, что они сами по себе имеют гораздо более сильный эффект на подиуме, – говорит он – Мне нравится выделяться и

производить впечатление».Еще один дизайнер, впечатливший
Берлинскую неделю моды – Roshi Porkar. В её коллекции весна-лето 2015 были замечены объёмные силуэты, сшитые по образу и подобию очертаний статуэток Бактрийской принцессы, созданных около 4,000 лет назад в регионе, который сейчас является частью Афганистана. Струящиеся платья устричного цвета с объёмными бедрами и утончённые платья-пальто с вставками из искусственной кожи стали гвоздём коллекции, а присутствие на показе Хайдера Аккермана и Тильды Суинтон говорит о быстром восхождении Поркар.
Из всех показов международных дизайнеров на Берлинской неделе моды именно коллекция Hien Le лучше всех отражает классический стиль немецкой столицы. На его шоу мы увидели множество минималистичных моделей с чёткими линями и ясной структурой, однако самыми интересные наряды - те, на которых красовался принт золотой рыбки в голубом, жёлтом и красном цветах. «Мне кажется, это хороший знак, что Берлинская неделя моды становится более и более международной и что мировые дизайнеры показывают свои коллекции в Берлине, используя его в качестве платформы, - говорит Лэ – В Берлине есть прекрасные дизайнеры; Vladimir Karaleev, Perret Schaad и Sissi Götze – одни из многих».
В то время, как основные персонажи Берлинской недели моды продолжают выступать в качестве источника вдохновения для нового поколения дизайнеров со всего света, международное преобразование этого мероприятия впечатляет. Africa Fashion Day Berlin стал отправной точкой демонстрации ярких коллекций, которые захватили подиумы и встряхнули немецкую модную индустрию. Как говорит Оола: «Это начало чего-то значительного для следующего поколения». mbfashionweek.com, soboye.com, studio1981.com, maxhosa.co.za, hien-le.com, vladimirkaraleev.com, perretschaad.com, sissigoetze.com
66: Guerilla Chic
Своенравный Шик
Бренд Kaviar Gauche ворвался в мир моды более десяти лет назад и до сих пор привносит нотку рок-н-ролльного мятежа в модную индустрию, как выяснила Верити Хоган
«Наши коллекции основаны на противоречиях. Нам нравятся роскошные и женственные женщины, которые имеют склонность к бунту». Kaviar Gauche нарушает модные правила уже десять лет, именно столько прошло с момента его появления. Фактически лейбл появился, благодаря своеобразному акту непослушания, когда дизайнеры Александра Фишер-Рёлер и Йоханна Кюль представили свою первую коллекцию на стихийном показе, устроенном на улице, снаружи парижского концепт-стора Colette в 2004 году.
С того момента бренд дважды устраивал показы в Париже, ставшие частью основного расписания. Шоу весна-лето 2015 было «успешным и сенсационным, – заверяют дизайнеры. – Показы в Париже сильно отличаются от Берлина. В Париже нам приходится производить впечатление на интернациональную публику, которая, возможно, никогда о нас и не слышала. В Германии вы можете спросить пожилую женщину, не имеющую никакого отношения к моде и проживающую в маленьком городке, и она скорее всего знает, кто мы».
Можно с легкостью утверждать, что Kaviar Gauche достиг международного признания, и, что его типичные клиенты куда более стильные, чем среднестатистические немецкие бабушки. Целевой аудиторией бренда являются сильные, красивые и талантливые женщины, а в число его фанатов входят Хайке Макатч и Рози Хантингтон-Уайтли. Эстетика лейбла – «женственный авангард с современным обаянием, объединённый с элементами рок-н-ролла», и дизайнеры говорят, что им бы очень хотелось, чтобы их одежду примерили Кира Найтли и Жозефин де ля Бом.
103
Для сезона весна-лето 2015 дизайнеры создали коллекцию, которую можно рассматривать как кульминация всего опыта, влияния и вдохновения, которым они делились последнее десятилетие. Эта коллекция выдерживает идеальный баланс между мужским и женским: женственные силуэты дополнены роскошными крупными элементами и легким объёмом со смещёнными формами; всё это выполнено в ярких, но мягких цветах.
Вдохновение приходит из многочисленных источников, но отражение Берлина в одежде бренда очевидно. «Помимо людей, которые оказывают влияние на рабочий процесс и наши модели, наш любимый город Берлин даёт нам впечатления и идеи, которые определяют стиль Kaviar Gauche, – говорит Кюль. – И всё же разные города, особенно Париж, также создают свои моменты, выступающие в качестве вдохновения».
Лейбл выразил свою любовь к Берлину во время своего 10-летнего юбилея, устроив специальный показ в городе. «Нам показалась правильным сделать это в Берлине, так как нам удалось пригласить многих людей, которые верили и поддерживали нас с первых минут».
Небрежный шик их коллекций принес славу Кюль и Фишер-Рёлер после выпуска с курса модного дизайна в ESMOD в Париже. Название бренда происходит из французского выражения: «Оно основано на «gauche caviar», что может быть переведено как социалист из Шампань. Это достаточно точно описывает наши изделия и философию потребления», – объясняет Фишер-Рёлер.
Массовое признание бренда в Германии началось с серии крупных коллабораций. В 2008 году Кюль и Фишер-Рёлер создали эксклюзивную коллекцию для группы Karstadt, в которую вошли платья, туники и блузы в стиле 1970-х. В 2010 году они запустили линию обуви для Görtz и косметичку, которая вышла ограниченным тиражом для бренда натуральной косметики Dr Hauschka. Понимание составляет основу любого сотрудничества: «Всё просто должно совпасть. Другая компания должна поверить в наш дизайн. Иначе ничего не получится, – объясняют дизайнеры, – конечно это всё равно сотрудничество, и вы не можете просто игнорировать желания ваших партнёров, но они должны доверять нам. Проекты, построенные на этих принципах, были очень успешны».
Коллаборации – это то, в чем Кюль и Фишер-Рёлер нет равных, ведь они проработали вместе 10 лет с минимальными креативными разногласиями. «Конечно, иногда наши мнения расходятся, но это происходит очень редко, ведь мы доверяем друг другу». Влияние двух креативных умов вылилось в двойственность, которая стала отличительным знаком лейбла. Коллекция весна-лето 2015 играет с контрастами, объединяя драпировку с яркими геометрическими формами, что создает оригинальный эффект.

世界顶级盛事
柏林时装周正日益呈现全球化视野,不少颇具国
际影响力的设计师纷纷现身于该城秀场。Sally
McIlhone报道
德国时装以功能性与极简主义而闻名,这点毋庸置
疑。从Hugo Boss的完美剪裁到Jil Sander的冷峻细
腻,德国设计师们因拒绝轻浮与过度累赘、倡导流
线般的简洁而为人熟知与钟爱。秉承这一传统,一批
具有国际影响力的设计师们空降柏林时装周,并带
来极具冲击力的印花、大尺寸夸张廓形与新型质感
的面料。这群大胆革新的新晋设计师们引起了德国
除了帮助顾客发掘新的品牌,现今的商场还必
须提供购物“体验”。“我们注意到人们购买行为中的
社会化变迁,”Ludwig表示。“不再仅仅是关于消费
主义需求了,而更关乎消费的体验。因此,购物已经
变成了闲暇时光的重要组成元素,正在与其他的休
闲娱乐活动竞争。”为了顺应对购物体验之旅日益增
长的需求,Bikini Berlin的建筑中还包括一家电影
院、屋顶公园、画廊与一间名为25hours的酒店。
与此同时,在柏林商厦(Mall of Berlin),购物
体验则来源于其庞大的体量与具有历史意义的位
置。开幕于2014年9月的柏林商厦,是德国购物中心
花名册中的最新成员。这座新的购物中心建于原先
德国最大的百货公司Wertheim的旧址上,占地面
积惊人地庞大,76000平方米的空间内林立着270
家店铺。这里拥有目前德国最大的美食广场,开发商
Harald G Huth亦已宣布在2015年还会有50家店
铺加入其中,使其成为占地面积135000平方米的、
德国最大的购物中心。
这座购物中心位于波茨坦广场、莱比锡广场与
威廉大街附近,四层空间内容纳着H&M、Mango
与Zara等流行品牌,Nike、Aldi与C&A等大型零
售品牌,以及一系列高端品牌;Hugo Boss、Karl
Lagerfeld与Strenesse都在此占有一席之地。Huth
同样认可为顾客提供其他娱乐的重要性,柏林商厦
主建筑的四周环绕着餐厅,在与其相连的生活区还
设有出租公寓、跑道与屋顶花园。
“这两座商场和他们挑选品牌与设计师的不同
途径,让每位顾客都可以找到属于自己的风格,”
Schweisselmann表示。“店铺选择如此广泛,人人
都可以找到能表达自我个性的东西。”
无论你是快时尚、设计师品牌还是新晋品牌的
粉丝,柏林这两家最新的购物中心定能满足你的
需求。

时尚叛逆军
场,并展现出经久不衰的活力:“我们为设计师们提
供全欧洲最好的平台,帮助他们进入时尚界,”Oola
表示。
Samson Soboye无疑从AFDB提供的平台
中受益良多。他在开始时装设计生涯之前,曾从事
造型师、室内设计师并为英国版Vogue杂志工作
过。Soboye的2015春夏系列凭借设计师对强有力
的印花、皮革的运用,以及一系列令人震撼的配饰作
品而脱颖而出——从印花头巾、棒球帽到皮革遮阳
帽。“设计自己的系列是我表达自己创意中不同方面
的方法,”Soboye解释道。“我喜欢混搭不同颜色与
互相冲突的印花,来打造与众不同、大胆惹眼的造
型。穿着自己作品的时候是我最幸福的时刻,我喜欢
别人见到我身着自己作品时候的反应。”
Soboye作品中的不少元素都反映了当下的时尚
趋势,然而相较于以传统德国时尚中坚分子所青睐
的柔和色彩来演绎这些潮流,设计师更乐于加入自
己的巧妙心思。“我喜欢运动奢华风潮,并推出了一
系列这一风格的单品,不过很显然这些印花太过强
有力了,他们就像是一种声明,出现在T台上时极具
冲击力,”他表示。“我觉得与众不同并让人留下持久
印象非常好。”
另一位震惊柏林时装周的设计师是Roshi
Porkar。她在2015年春夏系列中以超大夸张廓形,
呼应建于4000年前的当今阿富汗某地区的巴克特里
亚公主雕像的轮廓。系列中的亮点是有着夸张臀部
设计、精工细作的牡蛎色礼服,与镶嵌人造皮草的
优雅知性大衣裙。时装设计师Haider Ackermann
与影星Tilda Swinton都出席了这场时装秀,Porkar
的事业无疑正蒸蒸日上。
本季出现在柏林时装周的所有国际设计师
中,Hien Le的系列最能体现德国首都的优雅风尚。
设计师以练达的线条与强烈的结构感,打造出一系
列极简风格的单品。其中最为脱颖而出的是一件
有着蓝色、黄色与红色金鱼印花的单品。“这是一个
好兆头,柏林时装周正变得越来越国际化,全球设
计师们都出现在柏林并将其视为绝佳平台,”Le表
示。“柏林有许多才华横溢的设计师,包括Vladimir
Karaleev、Perret Schaad与Sissi Götze等等数不
胜数。”
随着柏林时装周的主要参与者们持续被全球年
青一代设计师视为灵感来源,这一盛事的国际视野
将得到不断拓展。柏林非洲时尚日为极富震撼力、缤
纷多彩的系列提供催化剂,助其席卷T型台并撼动
德国时尚界。正如Oola所指出,“对下一代人而言这
是一个重要的开始。”

Kaviar Gauche十年前风风火火闯入时尚界,时
至今日仍以摇滚反叛精神影响风尚格局,Verity
Hogan报道
“我们的作品都是脱胎于矛盾与冲突的。我们喜欢
女人在优雅妩媚的同时,又带有些许叛逆。”Kaviar
Gauche品牌自十年前在柏林成立之日起,就不断
突破时尚陈规。事实上,品牌亦是以一种叛逆的
姿态进入全球时尚圈视线的,设计师Alexandra
Fischer-Roehler与Johanna Kühl曾于2004年在
巴黎时尚概念店Colette门外的大街上,上演了一场
游击时装秀。
在那以后,该品牌作为时装周主日程的一部分,
在巴黎进行过两场发布秀。品牌的2015春夏发布是
一场“成功且令人动容的时装秀,”设计师表示。“在巴
黎发布作品与在柏林截然不同。在巴黎,我们必须打
动那些可能从未听说过我们的国际观众。在德国,
无论在多小的镇上问一个对时尚多漠不关心的老
妇,她都很可能知道我们是谁。”
说Kaviar Gauche在全球范围内声名远播绝
不为过,他的典型顾客也远比普通德国老太太迷人
许多。品牌的主要受众是那些坚强、美丽与优秀的
女性,其拥趸包括德国女明星Heike Makatsch与
英国超模Rosie Huntington-Whiteley。品牌宣扬
的美学是“结合摇滚元素、富有摩登魅力的女性化前
卫风格”,设计师表示他们希望看到英国女星Keira
Knightly与法国女星Joséphine de la Baume穿着
自己的作品。

畅购全球,尊享退税
在2015年春夏,设计师们推出了一个可被视作
集过去十年来累积的设计经验、重要影响与灵感来
源之大成的系列。这个系列在阳刚与阴柔之间达到
完美平衡:设计师将女性化廓形与华丽夸张元素、
以及错置形态之间的流动体量感相结合,并以一组
浓烈而又柔和的色彩将其完美演绎。
设计灵感来自不同的源头,但柏林是品牌设计
中永不缺席的存在。“除了那些对我们的工作流程
与设计有影响力的人们,我们挚爱的城市柏林赋予
我们场景、印象与灵感,指导着Kaviar Gauche的
风格,” Kühl表示。“但即便如此,不同的城市,尤其
是巴黎,也为我们提供了许多激发灵感的瞬间与概
念。”品牌在成立10周年之际,通过在柏林举办的一
次特别展览来纪念与这座城市千丝万缕的关系:“我
们就是觉得应该在柏林举办这次活动,如此我们才
能邀请到许多从一开始就相信并支持我们的人。”
从巴黎ESMOD学院的时装设计专业毕业
后,Kühl与Fischer-Roehler就以无造作的时髦
风格而为人所知。品牌得名于一句法语:“它来自
于“gauche caviar”,可以被翻译为香槟社会主义。这
个词基本描述了我们的设计与消费理念,”Fischer-
Roehler解释道。Kaviar Gauche的作品经常将材
质、透明度与体量玩弄于股掌之间,创造出引人入
胜、具有摩登魅力的酷感诱惑。各种高级定制细节与
奢华面料的运用,则为其平添几分不可替代性。
品牌在德国境内的高认知度,归功于一系列高
水准的合作。在2008年,Kühl与Fischer-Roehler
为Karstadt集团创作了一个限量系列,包括70年
代风格的连衣裙、束腰外衣和上衣;他们还在2010
年推出了鞋履系列Görtz,并为自然美容品牌Dr
Hauschka创作了限量版的化妆包。一系列合作是
基于共同的理念:“我们必须要理念一致。其他公司
需要认可我们的美学。否则无法合作,”设计师解释
道。“当然这是一项合作,你不能忽视合作方的意愿,
但他们必须信任我们。基于以上原则执行的项目,到
头来都非常成功。”
协同合作是Kühl与Fischer-Roehler最得心应
手的事之一,他们在已经一起工作了10年,几乎没
有什么创作上的分歧。“当然,我们有时会持有不同
的看法,但这相当罕见,因为我们信任对方。”同时
拥有两位创意核心或许是该品牌具有招牌二元性的
原因;2015年春夏系列充满对比,将休闲随意的面
料与视觉效果强烈的几何图形相结合,制造出巨大
冲击力。
这是品牌的制胜法则,在成立10年之后品牌上
升的强烈势头丝毫不见减弱的迹象。“我们正计划扩
大在国际市场的影响力,”他们满怀信心。“经营执照
的问题已经得到解决,现在我们正计划开设更多门
店;我们的零售店已经取得了巨大的成功。”
看来,德国的时尚叛逆分子正成为全球时尚界
社区里备受尊敬的成员。

دخلت علمة Kaviar Gauche عال الزياء منذ حوال العقد وما زالت تطّعم الساليب بنفحة من ثورة الروك أند رول، تقرير
Verity Hogan
Guerilla Chic: 66
أناقة ثائرة
“تقوم مجموعاتنا عل التناقضات. نحّب الرأة النيقة التي تتمتّع بالنوثة وبحّ“ من الثورة ف الوقت عينه.” تخالف العلمة قواعد الزياء منذ تأسيسها ف برلي منذ عش سنوات. ف الواقع، دخلت مجال الزياء العالي من خلل فعٍل ثائر تثّل بإطلق الصّممتي
Johanna Kühlو Alexandra Fischer-Roehler
مجموعتهم الول بعرض أزياء جريء ف الشارع أمام التجر الباريس التخّصص Colette سنة 2004.
مّذاك، عرضت العلمة ابتكاراتها مرّتي ف باري“، كجزء من البنامج الرئيس. وتصف الصّممتان عرض مجموعة ربيع/صيف
2015 بالـ “الناجح والبهر”. تضيفان: “العرض ف باري“ مختلف
عنه ف برلي. ففي باري“، علينا أن نُقنع جمهوراً عاليّاً من المكن أن ل يكون قد سمع عّنا. أّما ف ألانيا، فيمكنك أن تسأل عّنا امرأة
كبية بالسّن ل تهتّم بالزياء ف إحدى القرى الصغية، وعل الرجح أنها ستعرفنا.”
يصّح القول إّن Kaviar Gauche حّققت شهرة سيّئة عاليّاً وإّن زبونتها النموذجيّة أجمل بكثي من الرأة اللانيّة
التقليديّة. تستهدف العلمة الرأة القويّة الفاتنة الوهوبة ومن Rosie Huntington-و Heike Makatsch معجباتها
Whiteley. يتلّخص أسلوب العلمة بالـ “النثوي البتكر الميّز
بسحٍر عصي تتخلّله عناص الروك أند رول” وتعّب الصّممتان Joséphine de laو Keira Knightly عن رغبتهم ف رؤية
Baume ترتديان تصاميمهم.
لربيع/صيف 2015، ابتكرت الصّممتان مجموعة تلّخص كّل التجارب ومصادر التأثي واللهام التي صادفتهم ف العقد الاض. توازي الجموعة بامتياز بي السلوبي الذكوري والنثوي: توقّعوا تصاميم أنثويّة منّسقة مع عناص كبية فضفاضة وقطع منسدلة
عشوائيّة الشكل بألوان قويّة لكن هادئة.تًستوحى الجموعة من مصادر متعّددة مع الحتفاظ بوجود
دائم لبلي. تقول Kühl: “بالضافة إل الشخاص الذين يؤثّرون عل مسار عملنا وتصاميمنا، تنحنا مدينتنا الحبيبة برلي ذكريات
وانطباعات وأمثلة تحّدد أسلوب Kaviar Gauche. لكن بالرغم من ذلك، تقّدم لنا بع” الدن وبخاّصة باري“، ذكريات
وأفكاراً تشّكل مصدر إلهامنا.” وقد احتفلت العلمة بتعاونها العريق مع برلي ف عيدها العاش من خلل تقديم عرض خاص ف الدينة: “كان من اللئم أن نعرض ف برلي لنتمّكن من دعوة
الشخاص الذين آمنوا بنا وآزرونا منذ اللّحظة الول.”منذ تخرّجتا من قسم تصميم الزياء من ESMOD ف
باري“، اشتهرت Kühl و Fischer-Roehler بعملهم النيق من دون جهد. تشح Fischer-Roehler أّن “السم مأخوذ من التعبي الفرنس “gauche caviar” الذي يعني يساري الكافيار.
يصف تصاميمنا وفلسفة زبوناتنا”. غالباً ما تتلعب مجموعات Kaviar Gauche بالقمشة والشفافيّة والحجم لتبتدع تصميمً
يدمج بي الغراء البتكر والسحر العصي. ف حي تساهم الخياطة الدقيقة والقمشة الفاخرة ف زيادة فرادته.
تُعزى شهرة العلمة الواسعة داخل ألانيا إل عدد من الشاكات الرفيعة الستوى. سنة 2008، ابتكرت الصّممتان تشكيلة خاّصة بجموعة Karstadt، شملت فساتي طويلة
وأخرى قصية وقمصاناً كلّها مستوحاة من السبعينات، كم أطلقتا مجموعة أحذية لـ GÖrtz سنة 2010 وأنتجتا مجموعة محدودة الكميّة من حقائب الستحضات لشكة Dr Hauschka للجمل
111
الفريقيّة عنه بالكامل. أعتقد أنّه من الهم إضافة الزياء الفريقيّة إل الساحة اللانيّة ومنحها مساحة خاّصة بها.”
د لربيع/صيف 2015، قّدم عرض AFDB مهارات سيّالنقوش النيجيي Samson Soboye وعلمة 1981 للمصّممة الغانيّة Nana K Brenu وابتكارات بارعة من اللبسة الحبوكة
من علمة Maxhosa by Laduma. وبا أّن Oola خلقت
الحدث ونظّمته بفردها، يتّضح لنا لا تسّمي نفسها “رائدة”. بعد مرور سنتي عل تأسيسه ل غي، كسب AFDM مكانًة خاّصة وشهرًة متزايدة. تقول Oola ف هذا الطار: “نقّدم للمصّممي
أفضل منّصة ف أوروبا لدخول عال الزياء”.استفاد Samson Soboye من دون شك من منّصة
AFDB. انطلق ف مجال تصميم الزياء بعد أن عمل لفتات
.Vogue UK قصية كمنّسق أزياء ومصّمم داخل ولدى مجلّةتيّزت مجموعة Soboye لربيع/صيف 2015 عن غيها بفضل
استخدام الصّمم لنقوش صاخبة وجلود وتشكيلة واسعة من الكسسوارات؛ من أوشحة منقوشة وقبّعات كرة قاعدة إل قبّعات من دون طاسة. يشح Soboye قائلً: “شّكل تصميم مجموعتي الخاّصة طريقة للتعبي عن جزء مختلف من ابتكاري. أهوى مزج
اللوان والنقوش التضاربة لخلق أسلوب ٍ مختلف وملفت وجريء. أشعر بالسعادة القصوى عندما أرتدي تصاميمي وأحّب رّد فعل
الشخاص عندما يرونني ف ابتكارات.”تعك“ بع” عناص أعمل Soboye الوضة الرائجة، لكّنه ل يعّب عنها باللوان الهادئة التي يفّضلها رّواد الوضة اللان، بل
يفّضل إضافة لسته الخاّصة إليها. يعلّق قائلً: “أحّب الفخامة العمليّة وقد صّممت بع” القطع بهذا السلوب؛ لكن من الواضح
أّن النقوش قويّة جّداً لدرجة أنّها تبز أكث وتتك أثراً كبياً عل منّصة العرض. من الجميل أن نتميّز عن غينا ونتك انطباعاً
راسخاً.”من الصمّمي الخرين الذين لقوا استحساناً ف أسبوع
برلي للموضة Roshi Porkar. شملت مجموعتها لربيع/صيف 2015 تصاميم فضفاضة تعّب عن تاثيل أميات Bactria التي
أُنشئت منذ حوال أربعة آلف سنة ف منطقة باتت اليوم جزءاً من أفغانستان. من القطع الميّزة ف الجموعة فساتي دقيقة
بلون الحار ذات أوراك مضّخمة وفساتي بشكل معاطف يتخلّلها Tildaو Haider Ackermann الفرو الصطناعي. وبوجودSwinton بي الحضور خلل عرض الزياء، من الواضح أّن نجم
Porkar يسطع أكث فأكث.
من بي كّل الصّممي العاليّي الذين عرضوا ف أسبوع برلي للموضة هذا الوسم، تعّب مجموعة Hien Le أفضل تعبي عن
أسلوب العاصمة اللانيّة الكلسيك. شملت بع” القطع البسيطة ذات الخطوط النظيفة والتصاميم القويّة والنقوش البّاقة اللفتة
بلون الزرق والصفر والحمر. يقول Le: “إنّه لؤّش جيّد أّّن أسبوع برلي للموضة يزداد عاليّة ومزيد من الصّممي العاليّي يعرضون ف برلي ويستخدمونها كمنّصة لعملهم. وتتمتّع برلي
Perretو Vladimir Karaleev بصّممي رائعي نذكر منهم”.Sissi Götzeو Schaad
ما زال اللعبون الساسيّون ف أسبوع برلي للموضة يشّكلون مصدر إلهام لجيل جديد من الصّممي من حول العال، وما زال الحدث
Africa يجذب اهتمماً عاليّاً. وقد ساعد اليوم الخّصص لفريقياFashion Day Berlin مجموعات ملّونة مذهلة عل البدء
بعصف منّصات العرض وهّز مجال الزياء اللانيّة. عل حّد تعبي Oola: “إنّها بداية مرحلة عظيمة للجيل القادم.”
