Dea Kudibal was founded in 2003 with a collection of exclusive scarves and shawls made from vintage fabrics. Spring 2008 saw the launch of the first Dea Kudibal clothing line with feminine prints, playful colors and flattering silhouettes as the brands DNA. The stretch silk quality has become a signature for Dea Kudibal. The luxury of the quality, along with the great durability has made the stretch silk an essential part of every collection. Each season new unique and exclusive prints are designed with love in Copenhagen, where we had the privilege to enjoy the first preview of the gorgeous SS20 collection - ‘The Artist Collection’ which also introduced the use of the best quality viscose and cotton for the first time.
SS20 Previews - Campomaggi
Marco Campomaggi thinks, dreams and designs collections which combine the ancient art of treating leather with creativity, precision and painstaking care in craftsmanship. Each Campomaggi bag tells a story. Accuracy, care, attention and dedication are fundamental ingredients when creating the first prototype of each new model: a very delicate phase, the first step in transforming an idea into something tangible.
We visited Campomaggi’s factory store in the Italian city Cesena for a preview of the stunning SS20 collection and ended the visit with a wonderful Oscar’s themed dinner and dancing under the stars.
SS20 Previews - Kennel & Schmenger
Kennel & Schmenger was founded in 1918 and has a long and proud tradition that combines handcraft and zeitgeist in their manufacture. Kennel & Schmenger’s distinctive handwriting has elevated it to become one of the key brands in the premium segment. With the collections’ variety within all product groups their styles convey both aesthetics and casualness. Over the years Kennel & Schmenger gained essential experience. This comprehensive know-how is used throughout all groups of products like pumps, sneakers, sandals, boots and booties.
We had the pleasure to visit Kennel & Schmenger’s factory in Pirmasens which is one of the last remaining factories in Germany that still produces locally. It was incredible to see how the shoes are created from sketch to finished product with the greatest detail and care.
