Michael Sontag
Designer Michael Sontag sees his work as an entity. The transitions from season to season build upon each other. His presentations are snapshots without a static character. With this approach the designer blurs common fashion borders and creates a statement detached from fashion parameters such as seasons, trends and consumer ages. This approach is evident in the clarity of his designs; designs which have never been drawn, but rather come to life as they are draped on mannequins.

Tata Christiane
Tata Christiane is a vision of the street costume. It proposes an absurd and disturbing vision of beauty, with decline, maladjustment, extravagance, and immoderation. It plays with the borders of elegance, digging up our old memories, recycling the waste of our civilisation. It is monomania, a machination and a monstrous and sublime piece.
Using hand-made and boutique regional production, the design, cuts, materials and fabrics follow from the adaptation of poetic collage pieces into a contemporary street garment –what we call deconstructed couture.
