Modern German Fashion
German fashion is more than the traditional tracht. A highly
urbanized German society has produced its own style and exported
it to the world.
Jil Sander redefined the classic chic with her well cut
suits and costumes.
Karl Lagerfeld is Germany's own fashion success story.
Working for Chloé, Krizia and Fenid, he finally accepted
the position of chief designer with Chanel. On the way, he managed
to transform his own name into a trademark.
Although a recognized designer, Wolfgang Joop's success
is mainly based on his label's perfumes.
The Strenesse label successfully works with clear
lines and a casual style. Their keynote style: elegant leisure
wear at its best.
However, not only are Germany's fashion designers in world
wide demand: Claudia Schiffer, Nadja Auermann
and Heidi Klum are just three of a number of Germany's
top models.
The renowned photographer Helmut Newton changed the
genre of fashion photography through his groundbreaking work
for magazines like 'Vogue', 'Marie Claire' or 'Elle'.
