Fashion Award of the City of Vienna
est. 2009
The Vienna-based label DIPTYCH was founded in 2009 by Valerie Lange and Ali Zedtwitz. The two designers studied at the University
of Applied Arts in Vienna under Raf Simons and have already worked together for Jil Sander in Milan. In 2009 the two presented
their first own women's wear collection in Tokyo. Their work preferably takes place in open structures, their inspiration
follows coincidences, feelings and moods, and decisions are taken spontaneously and incoherently.
est. 2010
meshit was founded by Lena Krampf und Ida Steixner in 2010. The graduates from Modeschule Hetzendorf rely on simple designs, special details and extraordinary cutting techniques. Through fair prices they want to make their fashion accessible to as many people as possible. In 2010, meshit was selected for the Emerge-Topshop-Project and in March, they presented their a/w collection 11/12 at the fashion fair Capsule in Paris.
