Since he has set up his brand (together with Jutta Kraus) in 1999, the young man, born in Ulm in South Germany, hasn’t ceased building an imaginative and gently lunatic world. Womenswear came fist with a collection presented in Paris in March 1999. Following with menswear, he created his first samples in October 2000, to show only in January 2003 during Paris menswear, and on a regular seasonal basis since then. Trained at the Royal Academy of Antwerp, from which BERNHARD WILLHELM graduated in 1998, he was consecutively the assistant of Walter Van Beirendonck, Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood and Dirk Bikkembergs.
