Lediel

Lediel is a luxury Prêt-à-porter brand under the creative direction of Laura Maria Escobar, a Colombian designer born in Bogotá who bets on the diversification of silhouettes and the exaltation of sensuality through the mixture of feminine and masculine elements within the exact Look, redefining luxury and Latin sophistication.

After designing for other brands, where her designs stepped on international catwalks, such as Milan Fashion Week in 2021, she launched her collection. In this collection, she clarifies her perspective as a designer and how she conceives female empowerment.

COOL SOPHISTICATION is two words that perfectly describe the essence of the brand. The LEDIEL woman is bold, intrepid, and fierce, and shows it in her movements.

The brand bets on classic cuts with a modern twist that will always give people something to talk about and cause the wearer an overwhelming but subtle confidence.

The brand carries as its insignia a mixture of elements that have always represented feminine sensuality, such as necklines, silks, lace, and corsetry, combined with aspects of a masculine nature that have been associated with power and authoritarianism throughout history, such as the sartorial, shoulder pads, and cloths.
A Lediel garment will always be characterized by the sharpness of its cuts, the contrast of its textiles, and the reinterpretation of classic silhouettes within the framework of sophistication and modernity, always exalting women and making them worse with each step they take.

Lediel’s collections have been featured in important fashion magazines such as Vogue.

L’ Eternel Paris

After returning to Korea from Ecole de Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne, he worked as a designer in the domestic fashion industry. A man who loved classical music and studied fashion and a woman who studied piano and loved style joined forces and created the brand; L'eternal. Since then, they have poured their passion and enthusiasm into the brand.

L'eternel takes its brand name from the French word ,,eternel,” which means ,,forever.” It was born out of a desire to capture our unique, ,,eternally unchanging” sensibility.

– We have prepared a collection with L'eternel's unique design philosophy, integrating the beauty of the East and the West into one, not for fashion itself, but for practical comfort and beauty. This collection is elegant with a French sensibility. It has a refined, oriental feel that blends the lines. ​

Sophisticated to fit any body type, elegant and lively, sometimes dynamic and calming. We express the sensible melody of L'eternel through an ,,object” called clothes.

The designers strive to create a value that does not change and remains with time.
L'eternel was created by two people who loved classical music and studied fashion in Paris at Ecole De La Chambre Syndical De La Couture Parisienne. The brand started in Seoul, Korea.

They have a unique design philosophy that integrates the beauty of the east and the west into one. The expression of the sensible melody “L'eternel” is shown through an object called clothes. The sewing team brings our designs to life. They create new items curiously and are always unique.

Marcario Jimenez

This collection emerges from the idea of a strong woman, a woman that can be found in the Greek myth of Artemis, the representation of a self-made woman who runs at her own pace, always about to fight adversity and change her destiny, refusing to be submissive and unarticulated. How the myth has been told describes human nature, induces the viewer to reflect on the meaning of life, and reassures the idea of an unbroken and well-founded woman.

Visual references for the collection are diverse and very personal to Macario Jimenez.

We found a starting point on the clouds as a journey to imagination to find different shapes and forms, always subtle and graceful, part of the brand DNA. As well as geometric shapes from the traditional native communities in Mexico are part of the references in the collection to create contemporary high fashion that honors traditional techniques such as deconstructed perfect squares to ornate each piece with unique textures.

Season colors are all the shades found in the sky, from dawn till dusk: mallow, lavender, rosé, and black.
Fall Winter 2023 collection is entirely dedicated to women. Women who wear it, appreciate it, women who created it, women who believe in beauty and their decisions.

High fashion speaks about decisions, each woman's power to decide, and the freedom to choose by herself and be entirely responsible for her choices.

We aim to merge femineity with the power of choice inherent to every woman.

A well-intentioned, accurate, sharp woman is the reflection of the collection.

Macario Jimenez pursues to provide women an armor, a piece that confirms who they are and makes them go further and stronger. Always stronger.

Kloster Studio

Carmen Maria Kloster is a fashion Designer based in Denmark.

In 2021 she finished her bachelor’s degree from the Scandinavian Academy of Fashion Design immediately after she started working on her brand Kloster Studio, from her little Copenhagen apartment and developing a brand that creates fashion with a focus on aesthetics in a sustainable way.

Technique and storytelling are the two fundamental elements of Kloster Studio as a brand.

A big contrast she has brought with her into her work. Recently she moved to a little town in the middle of nowhere – from city life to horses in the backyard.

Together with her boyfriend, she lived in different places in the countryside of Denmark, even tho they were constantly packing and unpacking.

Carmen saw beauty in the chaos, continually working on pieces and making each garment by hand. The collection came to life through the move, and each garment got its own story and became a part of that journey.

The collection is made from recycled materials and leftover fabric, mostly found at small local second-hand stores all over Denmark.
The “Provincial Romance” collection is about a lost soul falling in love – a blossoming romance in the province.

Playing with a mix of aesthetics and kitsch and looking at prejudices about the province, often dismissed as tasteless.

The collection was initially based on Carmen’s previous collection, built around nostalgia and the loss of her father.

She worked with a melancholy and excessive sentimentality and approached it with ironic distance. She made it personal but not private.

But in connection with the move, the collection took a turn and became a collection with many impressions and stories told through the clothes.

An expression of something that has been stored for a long time and has therefore acquired traces of use and natural wear and tear.

Nuance

Nuance took the city by storm as Yuri Otsuka presented their captivating new collection at Paris Fashion Week (PFW) for the FW 2023 Season.

We have been releasing collections twice a year for the past few years, but our collection has yet to have a specific theme this time. The collection itself aims to reveal a new, solid brand concept.

Our new brand concept is ,,Okuyukasi.”

The Japanese concept of ,,Okuyukasi” can be translated into ..elegant modesty.” The term itself is graceful and attractive; it reflects the times. It also means ,,to read ahead, to get to know, and to ask with compassion” and ,,be captivated from the bottom of one’s heart.” So, we designed the dress with such a distinctive feature of Japanese culture.
Instead of creating something with exaggeration or eye-catching features, we prefer focusing more on the true, authentic beauty of the brides and how to show it with necessary elaborations. It is, in fact, the expression of Japanese aesthetics.

On the best day of life, we want to tell the backstories of the brides- how they have lived out their lives, as well as their beauty and discernible personal style. The design aims to make the audience curious about all the life stories behind it.
