huber egloff swiss finest womenswear

This ladies’ fashion label created by Andreas Huber and Raúl Egloff Alcaide has made waves in recent years, both within Switzerland and beyond its borders. It is addressed to the style-conscious and future-oriented contemporary woman who is looking for luxury and a certain kind of extravagance. The philosophy of the designers stands for the power of opposites. Their collections are notable for their sensuous emphasis, top-quality materials and the delicacy of the processing. Their aesthetic approach combines innovative creation with wearability. The cuts seem simple and unassuming, but are at the same time sophisticated. The huber egloff collection of autumn/winter 2015 is an exemplary illustration of this approach. It is designed as a collage and as the expression of a young and contemporary spirit. Inspired by the eclectic works of the artist Isa Genzken, the various references to youth culture have been woven into an independent visual idiom.
Comments of the nominators
huber egloff is one of the most interesting Swiss fashion labels. This duo of designers loves fashion and lives by it – they are smart, ambitious and professional. The continuous development of the brand, and its well thought out publicity, are not the least of the reasons why the label is well on the way to establishing itself in the international fashion industry.
