Berlin-based label Ottolinger is a collaboration between Swiss-born designers Christa Bösch and Cosima Gadient. Having met during their studies at the Basel School of Design, the two quickly began making waves with their avant-garde and fearlessly destructive challenge to luxury fashion’s status quo. The Labels punk approach to couture tailoring is a sign of confidence that trumps the glamour of a sleek silhouette. While underlining their unorthodox and refreshing vision on fashion and notion of sex appeal, it questions what is considered flattering to a womans physique. Labor-intensive creations are held to the highest standards in quality and challenge traditional notions of couture with textural and deconstructive applications. The counterculture label has garnered a cult following for their asymmetric silhouettes, raw aesthetic and uniquely hands-on process of abstraction and deconstruction.The resulting re-assemblage represents an unlikely harmony between meticulous construction and antithetical spirit of punk-tinged rebellion.
