Isabell de Hillerin has a powerful vision: to integrate modern silhouettes with values of handcrafted and slow fashion. The idea to look outside perceived limitations and rather concentrate on what she sees as fundamental principles like using handmade textiles by local artisans in Romania and Moldova to add to her gorgeous designs has been her signature since the start of her label back in 2009.
With her new collection Beyond the designer invites you to take some time to reflect on the essential in our fast moving environment and translates her inspiration into a strong & extremely wearable collection for S/S 2015. Sheer layers give way to beautiful clean cut silky tops and dresses in whites, muted greys and powdered neutrals. Hidden tucks and pleats on below knee length culottes and draped blouses redefine an effortless elegance with an urban twist. My absolute favourite pieces were the grey cape layered shirt and the white patent brogues - top of my personal wish list!
I'm thrilled to see a great designer whose production line is as transparent as the beautiful layers on the girls she sends out on the catwalk. But what I love most about this collection is that the garments are investment pieces rather than seasonal fads - Isabell de Hillerin is here to stay!
