Founded in 2013 by German-born, Parsons-trained designer Melitta Baumeister, the New York-based brand treats fashion as a sculptural practice. With a background as a seamstress, Baumeister takes a hands-on, architectural approach to design, creating voluminous, avant-garde shapes that stand away from the body. The label is defined by its use of innovative and technical materials—including bonded jerseys, foams, and taffeta—often in a stark, monochromatic palette of black and white. This focus on form and materiality gives the clothing a distinctive, art-world character.
