ISSEVER BAHRI
In July 2010 ISSEVER BAHRI’ s debut collection for S/S 2011 was launched during the Berlin fashion fair PREMIUM where the label was awarded the annual initiated PREMIUM "Young Designers Award”. With their third collection they won the second prize of the “ Start Your Fashion Business” Award in July 2011.
ISSEVER BAHRI stands for innovative fashion. The conceptual and experimental approach to their collections is combined with wearability, longevity and a high standard of quality in materials, workmanship and fit. Thereby it is important for Derya Issever and Cimen Bachri to look at traditions found in their root countries, Greece and Turkey. For ISSEVER BAHRI the work approach is to combine traditions with modern style and techniques to generate a new standard. They translate classical approaches in handcrafted techniques, materials and pattern cutting according to each collection concept. This is then fused into a modern context of uncompromising aesthetics.
