The S/S 2012 COLLECTION is a mix of women and men models. The collection is based on minimalism basic cuts giving models through regular/irregular pleats a rich minimalism special look. I research interesting lines of basic cuts, let pleats follow the lines and research new places and looks of pleats to give clothes different structures. In the collection I play with lightweight and stronger materials, do/do not combined them together, making symmetric/asymmetric models. I open up for more colorful models in dark green, grey, dark blue, electric blue, violet and refreshing light green color. Models are in very conspicuous colors and have through structures of pleats and combinations of materials a special cognizable look.
