Isabell de Hillerin S/S'14: Relief - The Clothes Maiden Magazine

The spring/summer collection, entitled ‘relief’ by ‘isabell de hillerin’ embodies a combination of elegance, vigor and grace. Excitement and tension lie in the thick summer air, as in the distance, the roar of the race is capturing. Heavy, dark clouds elegantly rumble through the dimming skies. The atmosphere is charged with the unmistakable scent of change.

While the familiar orchestra of pounding hooves on the awaiting soil remains fast and consistent, the wind announces its arrival with powerful gusts. The clouds release the eager raindrops in their downward journey, honoring this prestigious moment with clarity and pureness.

The label ‘isabell de hillerin’ stands for elegance, structured cuts and details which remind of an old tradition. In recent years the ancient fabrics industry in Romania and Moldova has been driven to near extinction. To strengthen this traditional artisan industry, her label works with local manufacturers to support the production of handmade materials. Her aim is to push these highly skilled craftsmen by publicising and utilising their cultural skills in a way that hasn’t been done before.
