The runway presentation for the collection will take place this Sunday, 15th August (just like las year – same place, same time) at Valiug (you can see more pics of the resort and surroundings on Gasthof Tirol’s website). Flavia and Vlad (two bright young architects) will create an installation for the runway, can not wait to see how it will eventually look. I am sooo excited!

The mood/ad photographs are actually made on top of Andi’s studio, so that’s quite amazing, right?

I wanted the collection to be very light, summery, easy and breezy. The main inspiration is Van Gogh’s sunflower and his night paintings, so I got the color palette from there: warm yellow, beige, cream balanced with darker notes of blue, navy and black.

Take a look at the whole collection below, also click to read the full post for all the looks, sketches and fabric swatches.

These are the fabric swatches that I used for this collection:

Mostly natural fabrics, cotton, silk, chiffon and a bit of printed jersey.

These are some of the sketches that I randomly did these last couple of months while I was thinking about the collection. I usually sketch very fast and on any bit of paper I can find around, that is why some pieces look so wrinkled.

Special ‘Thank You’ to Reverto, Prospero, Textil Point.
