German born designer Melitta Baumeister

offers a new voice to fashion dialogue.

(image from zimbio.com):

designer Melitta Baumeister

…

 Her inventive perspective on structure, form, dimensionality

is accomplished through use of varied materials.

She uses unusual substances such as silicon and

developments in design technology

to construct garments of  an “hyper-reality”.

…

Ms. Baumeister received an MA in Fashion and Society from

Parsons – The New School of Design, NYC and

 presented her graduate collection in 2013 during

New York Fashion Week.

…

In an interview, which appeared on Ligature.ch,

Ms. Baumeister described her design aesthetics as

“boldly quiet, sculptural, contemporary weirdness”

…

Her ideas, materials and execution explores

new aspects of fashion design.

Ms. Baumeister is one to watch … as she boldly goes.

fashion designer, interview, Mary Katrantzou, prints, structural, Suzy Menkes

Autumn, 2012

I had the pleasure of attending an interview with the charismatic

Mary Katrantzou

at The Fashion and Textile Museum, London.

She is passionate about her work and eloquently articulated

the aesthetic of print and structural elements in her creations.

 Her designs are kaleidoscopic:   colourful, vibrant, lyrical, engaging.

…

I am definitely a follower of her creative tune …

play on Ms. Katrantzou, play on

…

Meet Mary Katrantzou:

The pied piper of print perfection, the amazing Mary Katrantzou,

discusses her creative process and design inspirations with

fashion journalist Suzy Menkes.

…

Listen/Look/Love

You too will follow where she leads.
