Very small,capsule-like collections. But her pieces are so special no need for a tremendous volume.

She just launched her women's collections but designed initially for children/teens. Her collections are sold at Walter in Antwerp.

So, I decided to take a look at her website and came across the lovely Spring/Summer 06 collection, which hasnt been posted yet.

I think her clothes are still very influenced by children.

hmm some great looks here... would probably look even better if the casting was better... not to be rude but these girls just arent model material.. or is there something im not getting here? is she modelling it herself?

 

[arlekindearrabal]

^i think the models work quite allright

this is wonderful, i specially like all the fringing bits... thx for posting scott and mullet

Actually I quite like the models. They have a sense of personality and 'ownership' about the clothing. Not sure displaying. And i think the way she used the mannequins is quite cute.

There are a lot of great pieces here. Eff, I love the talent that comes out of the royal academy

i have seen very much the same style (if not the same) from scandinavian designers.....

 

[Scott]

Ah...many thanks Mullet! Sorry I got a bit biased in that....it wasn't as great to me as the others

I love the girls! There's a different sense of personality one doesn't get with professional models...more realism,I would say.

And this is the designer:

Some of it appeals, but I think this is not really my cup of tea.

In some of the earlier pieces posted, it looks like they have been maybe created by hand. There's a kind of raw quality in the outfits with the loose threads (woven) and also in the felted green jackets... I can't imagine it done on a mass scale.
