PATRICK MOHR
Patrick Mohr is known for sophisticated sportswear. The designs are clean, wearable and play with different silhouettes.
Natural materials such as cotton, wool and leather emphasize the purist impression. Patrick Mohr combines elegance with sportiness – avantgarde with streetwear. Traditional elements are mixed with new silhouettes for an urban and purist effect – progressive fashion with timeless wearability.
His use of geometric shapes creates something new, something independent.

FRIDA WEYER
Berlin-born designer Frida Weyer studied at the international fashion school ESMOD in Berlin. She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, was celebrated as the new German “Wunderkind”, and won prizes such as the “PREMIUM Young Designers Award” as well as the prestigious “Bunte New Faces Award”. Celebrities such as Natalia Avelon and Jette Joop love the creations of FRIDA WEYER and regularly present themselves on the red carpet wearing them. The young designer even made it to Hollywood: Maria-Victoria Dragus wore one of her dresses to the 2010 Academy Awards.
Frida Weyer is distinguished by the surprising versatility of her collections. The designer has managed to perform a successful balancing act between elaborately tailored high-end fashion and casual ready-to-wear clothing. Her sensitive feeling for the needs of the modern women is reflected in all of her designs – always fashionable but with a touch of Berlin sassiness that makes the collections quintessentially wearable. To be a woman and to be allowed to be a woman is the designer’s philosophy, always with a focus on authenticity and elegance.
