if you ´d like a preview on next summer it is on our website now.
here a bit of the inspiration




and what came out we called:
DIE GERADE UND DIE KRUMME
Hui-hui spring/ summer collection 2011 starts where we started:
The difference between the straight/ die Gerade and the bent/ die Krumme.
- One of the first principles we learned in primary- school, used here
by means of creating unexpected three- dimensional shapes in the garments.
the line and the curve
constructed and organic
the shortest way from A to B -and the detour…
giving the prints a direction to deny, choosing for the irregular, the handmade,
by beeing the lost and found of the sketches we still wanted to integrate, the ingredients for tomorrows supper and the section of a forest in colours.
And since all this sounds pretty confusing we wrap it all up
and fasten it well:
apricot, pineapple, azur- stained and- chequered , iced- coffee
take -me -away in an eternal paperbag.
monoprix was playing live accompanied by our scarfs.

is a platform for young photographers. current exhibition
´a specter from the land of if ´ just opened last week at the gallery of the antwerp foto-museum.
in fact the show is less than half of the project. to understand the apparant randomly presented
works, you should have a look at the catalogue where each photographer presents a selection
of pictures from the huge archive of the museum. Those images mark the startingpoint for
each of the contributers search of a new subject.
mhh magic michèle matyns series of poster- sized polaroids:


funny, very him and a selfportret in disguise the work of frederik heyman:


contributing also: sarah gerats, fien muller, sarah van marcke, simon vansnick.

jan- jan van essche is doing it his way.
graduated 2003 in the antwerp royal academy with fourfold award winning final year collection,
jan- jan launched his first collection yukkuri two weeks ago at ateliersolarshop.


yukkuri, japanese for slowly, or taking it easy is the common denominator for a contemporary , urban collection with
folkloristic influences.
good materials, embroidery, waving and braiding technics in sober shades of grey with a dash of light-blue denim
make this a laid back and wearable mens collection. for us it could perfectly work as a unisex collection.
below the designer himself in some of our favourites.


the collection is available off the shelf and numbered and produced in small quantities.
tomorrow is the finissage in antwerp. in september the pop-up-solarshop will be open again
with jan-jan s collection, hui-hui and various other designers.
