Isabell de Hillerin A/W13

Isabell de Hillerin is a brand that stands for elegance, structured cuts and details. Since the ancient fabrics industry in Romania and Moldova has recently been driven to near extinction, her label works with local manufacturers to support the production of handmade materials and to strengthen this traditional artisan industry.

Isabell’s Autumn / Winter 2013 collection, titled ‘quiet’, is inspired by the vision of preserved fragments in deep ice. Long-forgotten traditional elements are hidden like fossils. Barely visible, but once captured in marine-blue water, the ice reveals frozen moments like black stones and green moss.
