Minx is uncomplicated, comfortable and of playful elegance. Discreet details leave an individual touch. Employed, successful and at the same time a family person – this is representative for the modern woman. Minx is the fashion label that addresses today´s self-confident woman.

Afterwards she attended the renowned German Master Craftsmen School for Fashion and later on she graduated from the “Akademie für Mode & Design” in Munich.
She designed her first own collection, while working for Rena Lange. Just one year later Irene Luft launched her own eponymous label in Munich and has since then positioned well in the fashion business.
With her couture collection, “Space-Opera”, Irene Luft presented herself for the first time in July 2010 at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin while participating at the “Designer for Tomorrow Award“. Also she was the winner of the “Innovationspreis für Modedesign”.
In July 2012 the designer will be presenting her collection for the 4th time at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin. For her extravagant Spring/ Summer 2013 Collection Irene Luft cooperated with the leading lingerie manufacturer Triumph. "The Little black Dress” by Triumph is the perfect accessory for the special creations of the designer.
