INDEPENDENT SPIRIT

From cutting-edge clothing by new designers to unworn vintage items, Berlin’s menswear scene is thriving, says Josh Sims

isit Aljoscha Augustin and his father at their Berlin menswear store Fein Und Ripp and, aside from the likelihood of being ofered a glass of beer and meeting his brother, the chances are you will fnd items of clothing you haven’t seen before. This is because the shop specialises in a distinctive 1920s style, including unworn vintage pieces sourced from around Europe, which has led it to become something of a cult destination.

‘We don’t care much for fashion here.

We appeal to the man with individual style, who wants clothing that has to be worn for several years before it looks as good as it can.

Fashion will have long moved on by then,’ says Augustin.

Somewhat in contrast to Fein Und Ripp is Darklands: co-founded by Campbell McDougall, a Canadian of Scottish ancestry, the store favours the brooding and the minimal, as its name suggests. Darklands’ vast selection, from a wide range of labels, is housed in an equally vast white box-like space on the city’s periphery and is as much a gallery as a store.

‘The scene in Berlin is constantly changing,’ says McDougall. ‘Berlin is often a testing ground for new stores and concepts.

Many of them end up not working and some

/

of them are pop-up shops, so there is this constantly changing list of shops opening and closing, and among them is this core of good, solid shops, many of which have been around for some time.’

These longstanding ventures, and a host of other stores, are helping to seal Berlin’s reputation as being one of Europe’s leading hubs for independent menswear retailers.

Notable examples include Burg & Schild which stocks rare denim and items of workwear, otherwise known as ‘heritage’ style; Chelsea Farmers Club, with its bold, dapper suiting and dress shirts; and Soto Store which champions the intelligent, dressed-down style of niche brands including Nanamica, Aspesi and Norse Projects. A larger selection of labels (for men and for women) can be found in

Departmentstore Quartier 206 as well as in 14oz, which has three shops in the city. Among the own-brand stores is AD Deertz, a label established in 2000 which specialises in small runs of casual clothing for men.

Menswear stores are concentrated in the Mitte district (including in its Scheunenviertel area) Kreuzberg, Prenzlauer Berg and in the streets around the zoo. Some aren’t particularly easy to locate, being in ‘non-obvious spaces’, according to McDougall.

Stores that are of the beaten track need to ofer customers something special in order to build a positive reputation. ‘It has become more important to concentrate on good products and good service, to create your own ideas and to become a unique store,’ says Shane Brandenburg, founder of Burg & Schild.

Berlin is a city of contrasts: it is attracting more visitors from other countries and is developing economically, but at the same time, Above (clockwise from top lef): AD Deertz store, AD Deertz autumn/winter 2015/16, Soto Store

The independent stores are thriving because Berlin isn’t dominated by chains rents in some areas are relatively afordable, there is a strong artistic vein and a healthy counter-culture exists. ‘A very independent spirit has developed along with many fashion and cultural scenes,’ Brandenburg explains.

‘These looks can be very diferent and sometimes extreme, but they’re accepted, whereas in many other cities, anything outside of the norm wouldn’t normally be tolerated.

Men can wear what they want in Berlin.’

McDougall adds that, in recent years, Berlin’s famed nightlife and club culture has

fuelled a menswear boom. ‘Most young people are putting together their look using clothing they fnd in markets and at designer sales along with items from designer friends and pieces that they alter at home,’ he says. ‘The vintage market is very strong here, as is streetwear.’

The independent stores are also thriving because Berlin isn’t dominated by chain stores, according to Wibke Deertz, the founder of AD Deertz. ‘Men here used to shop in the department stores and this led to a demand for more independent menswear stores, of the kind that women have had access to for years,’ she explains. ‘Independent fashion design is not an easy world to get into and menswear has its own challenges – it’s more about focusing on fabric and detail, rather than extreme changes of style. But Berlin is especially welcoming to it’ feinundripp.de, darklandsberlin.com, burgundschild.com, chelseafarmersclub.de, sotostore.com, addeertz.com

or devotees of fashion, German designer Markus Lupfer needs no introduction.

He is the man who revitalised knitwear, turning it from the bulky, drab top layer one reaches for on a cold day to a fun fashion staple. Famed for his jumpers adorned with sequined lips, animals and ice cream, he is now known the world over, and is introducing other standout elements to his collections.

His autumn/winter 2015/16 collection is flled with stunning tapestry print minidresses, skirts and bomber jackets, and features innovative tailoring along with lashings of metallics. ‘It is based around a secret garden idea,’ Lupfer explains. ‘There are woodland characters, garden gnomes and forbidden fruit.

We have focused on a darker colour palette and opulent fabrics.’ These more brooding shades give the collection a maturity that is balanced with youthful accessories such as woollen hats adorned with cats’ ears, pom poms and jewelled details. When asked about his favourite pairings for autumn and winter, he highlights his sunglasses printed with images of daisies and the ‘oversized foral jacquard parka’ which look ‘really special’ together.

Lupfer attributes his enthusiasm for clothing design to his grandmother who ‘was a huge infuence, and inspired me to get into fashion.’ ‘She was a very glamorous lady. Her 103 / 112

Beyoncé, Rihanna and Madonna have been seen wearing Markus Lupfer’s clothing designs sister was a dressmaker and it was always exciting to visit her place.’ Lupfer decided to study fashion design at the University of Westminster in London where he graduated with a frst-class honours degree. His fnal year collection was sold in Koh Samui, one of London’s most notable boutiques for new design talent and, just four years later, he was awarded the British Fashion Council’s New Generation award. Having lived and been inspired by Germany and the UK, Lupfer praises both countries for shaping his creative eye, with Germany infuencing his technical skills and the UK providing him with a frm foundation in the design process.

One of Lupfer’s most recognisable motifs is the open pair of pouting sequined lips which developed from his habit of signing of his Above (clockwise from lef): designer Markus Lupfer; detailing from the brand’s autumn/winter 2015/16 collection

letters with little hand-drawn lips, signifying a kiss. ‘This was the starting point of the sequin lips,’ Lupfer explains. The lips also tap into Lupfer’s aesthetic, which he describes as ‘contemporary, wearable and with a little bit of humour’, and he sees his clients as being ‘young, fun, looking for an adventure’ and ‘with a sense of humour.’

Even after winning awards, Lupfer is determined to help designers who are starting their careers In particular, Lupfer’s knitwear items embody this youthful, vibrant energy and many contain ‘girly’ tongue-in-cheek references.

Sequined jumpers from the spring/summer 2015 collection say ‘Crush’ and ‘Mermaid’, for example, and such pieces are considered by Lupfer to be design pieces that are special but can be worn every day.

By cornering the market in wearable fun fashion that also hints at elegance, Lupfer has caught the eye of some high-profle people. He says that actress Britt Robertson was spotted ‘looking gorgeous’ in a piece from the current collection, and that Beyoncé, Rihanna and Madonna have also been seen in his designs.

‘It is always so exciting to see people in our clothes, especially young and exciting talent,’ he says.

Even after winning awards and seeing his clothing worn by A-list celebrities, Lupfer is determined to help designers who are looking to start their careers. Lupfer describes his proudest achievement as ‘supporting a small group of designers in Ethiopia to develop their collections and help to start their careers.’

Helping to nurture these unknown designers is an experience that Lupfer describes as ‘really rewarding.’ It is not often that an internationally Above (both): Markus Lupfer autumn/winter 2015/16

acclaimed designer takes time out from their busy schedule to think about future generations of designers, especially those from less privileged backgrounds, and this is testament to Lupfer’s character: he may be fun-focused when it comes to his designs, but he is also compassionate and makes it clear that he wants to give something back.

For now though, his focus is on his spring/ summer 2016 sunglasses and shoe collections: ‘I am rather excited about both!’ And, unsurprisingly, so are we markuslupfer.com

ne of the most exciting recent additions to Berlin defes defnition.

Although called the Store, it is so much more than a retail destination.

This expansive space may feature local and international fashion labels, but it also houses a café, beauty salon, barber shop and homeware section, along with a shared working area, with many more facilities in the pipeline.

‘It’s a cultural hub, where people can hang out,’ explains Celia Solf, the Store’s manager.

‘We wanted to create a cosy place that feels like a home, that you can work in, or where you can spend money, but you’re not forced to do anything.’

The Store is part of Soho House Berlin, a private members’ club and hotel located in a landmark building in the Mitte area.

It’s immediately apparent that, despite its grand location and vast windows, a relaxed atmosphere pervades. On entering the Store, you’re likely to see a display of vintage-inspired LGR sunglasses and stunning jewellery by Delfna Delettrez. Clothing options here range from international favourites such as Joseph and Alexander Wang to smaller labels including Vetements and Trager Delaney, with some items exclusive to the Store.

Solf describes the creative direction driving the Store’s fashion choices as ‘elegant, androgynous and comfortable’, with a focus on lasting quality. ‘All the pieces are additions to your wardrobe that aren’t time sensitive. We like things that you can keep and put on next winter, like a beautiful cashmere pullover,’ she says. Standout items include a range of Rike Feuerstein hats and yellow leather clutches by Jil Sander.

Visitors are also sure to be impressed by the expansive homeware department. The selection draws from the talents of local and international craftspeople, with Berber rugs from Morocco available alongside horsehair mattresses made

by Daniel Heer in his atelier just around the corner in Rosa-Luxemburg-Strasse: ‘They’re too pretty to put on a bed!’ Solf exclaims.

While here, take time to visit the in-store beauty and grooming facilities, which cater for both genders, with Cheeky providing nail and other treatments, and Neville barber shop ofering beard trims and services for men.

There’s also a wealth of reading material

Diners can enjoy creative salads, cold-pressed juices and homemade granola, among many other items.

Everything you see here, from the Sue Binns crockery used in the café to the Mary Lennox fower arrangements, is available

Staf members are relaxed yet knowledgeable while the creative team is excited, innovative and focused on the next big thing. Pieces with personality are given space to shine, whether it’s something served in the café or a one-of fashion collaboration. With so much to experience, it’s easy to spend much of the day here. ‘I’ve never looked at my watch to wonder what time it is!’ exclaims Solf thestore-berlin.com

Fresh juices and smoothies, made to order or in small batches, are now easily available in Berlin, and the city is starting to follow in the footsteps of New York and London when it comes to healthy drink options. Unlike mass produced juices, freshly made and, in particular, cold-pressed versions do not undergo heat treatment and therefore appeal to those who are looking for tasty, nutrientpacked alternatives.

A varied range of delicious drinks is available in the city, whether sold in health food cafĂŠs or in third-party outlets. For visitors to Berlin who do not have access to a kitchen during their travels, juice bars provide a quick and convenient way of maintaining a healthy diet.

Many juice bars in Berlin use organic ingredients and are concerned about social responsibility and you may see healthy living workshops advertised too. globalblue.com

René Lezard, Mall of Berlin, Leipziger Platz 12-14, 10117 Berlin, +49 (0)30 2007 6870, rene-lezard.com * for map go to page 96

When Thomas Schaefer founded the René Lezard label in 1978, he did so with the idea of creating a modern, design-led premium brand that used only the highest quality materials. This philosophy remains at the core of the latest autumn/winter collection.

The pieces are elegant and stylish without being trend-driven. Warm fabrics such as cashmere and wool are used throughout the collection, giving the clothes an invitingly tactile look. Those seeking dressier items won’t be disappointed, as there are plenty of silk blouses, along with statement coats in foral jacquard.

TISSOT Tissot has referenced its heritage in its Chemin des Tourelles range of watches, named after the street in Le Locle, Switzerland, where the brand started to manufacture its timepieces in 1907. In the latest collection, women should seek out the minimalist model with its white leather strap and light-catching face while, for men, the rose gold watch with a deep-brown strap (pictured) is sure to become a staple accessory. This is a key range from the timepiece specialist, which was founded in 1853 and whose headquarters is still located in Chemin des Tourelles.

TRANSLATIONS РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 56: Independent Spirit

Независимый Дух Джош Симс рассказывает о современной мужской моде Берлина, объединившей передовые коллекции молодых дизайнеров и винтажные вещи

PHOTO: ROBERT WUNSCH

Если вам случится побывать в берлинском магазине мужской одежды Fein Und Ripp, принадлежащем Алеше Августину и его отцу, то очень вероятно, что вам предложат бокал холодного пива, а также познакомят с вещами, которые вы вряд ли видели гделибо раньше. Все дело в том, что магазин специализируется на эпохе 1920-х годов и предлагает большой выбор неношеных винтажных вещей, привезенных из самых разных частей Европы.

«Мы не придаем большого значения моде, для наших клиентов важен индивидуальный стиль. Они предпочитают такие вещи, которые нужно будет носить несколько лет подряд перед тем, как они станут выглядеть максимально привлекательно. А мода к тому времени уже давно пройдет», – говорит Августин. Бутик Darklands кажется полной противоположностью Fein Und Ripp: одним из его основателей является Кэмпбелл МакДугалл, канадец шотландского происхождения, и как следует из названия магазина здесь ценят строгость и минимализм. В просторных помещениях Darklands, скорее напоминающего галерею, чем магазин, собраны обширные коллекции самых разнородных брендов. «Берлинская модная сцена развивается весьма динамично, – говорит МакДугалл.

– Берлин играет роль своеобразной

опытной лаборатории для новых брендов и магазинов. Многие из них не выдерживают и закрываются, другие изначально открываются лишь на сезон, поэтому процесс не стоит на месте и время отсеивает лишнее, оставляя лучшее». В результате остается ряд успешных магазинов, которым удалось пройти испытание временем, и именно они помогают Берлину поддерживать репутацию ведущего европейского центра независимой мужской моды. Прекрасным примером служат такие магазины, как Burg & Schild, предлагающий обширную коллекцию джинсовой и рабочей одежды в традиционном стиле; Chelsea Farmers Club, специализирующийся на смелых, элегантных костюмах и нарядных рубашках; и Soto Store, где можно найти интересную подборку нишевых брендов, включая Nanamica, Aspesi и Norse Projects. Самый широкий ассортимент одежды в городе представлен в универмаге Departmentstore Quartier 206, а также в магазинах сети 14oz. Среди монобрендовых бутиков в Берлине большой популярностью пользуется AD Deertz, открытый в 2000 году и предлагающий небольшие коллекции повседневной одежды для мужчин. Основная масса магазинов мужской одежды сосредоточена в таких районах, как Mitte, включая квартал Scheunenviertel, Kreuzberg, Prenzlauer Berg и на улицах вокруг зоопарка. Некоторые из них довольно хорошо спрятаны, и, по словам МакДугалла, их не всегда легко отыскать. Все бутики, расположенные вдали от популярных туристических маршрутов, считают своим долгом предложить покупателям нечто особенное, чтобы поддержать свою репутацию. «Чтобы выделиться из толпы и быть уникальными, сейчас как никогда важно уделять максимум внимания качественным вещам и безупречному сервису», – говорит основатель Burg & Schild Шейн Бранденбург. Берлин – это город контрастов: он привлекает все больше туристов из других стран и не прекращает развиваться в экономической сфере, но при этом аренда

жилья остается по-прежнему доступна, а культурная жизнь бьет ключом. «В последнее время стремление к независимому мышлению сильно возросло, – поясняет Бранденбург, – и проявляется это в первую очередь в манере одеваться. Порой можно встретить довольно необычные наряды и стили, но их воспринимают абсолютно нормально, в то время, как в других городах отклонение от общепринятых норм моды будет восприниматься в штыки. В Берлине мужчины могут свободно носить все, что пожелают». Также, МакДугалл высказывает мнение о том, что на мужскую моду в Берлине большое влияние оказала ночная жизнь и знаменитые столичные клубы. «Большинство молодых людей формируют свой гардероб из вещей, найденных на рынках и в дизайнерских бутиках, зачастую добавляя свои собственные штрихи вручную с помощью швейной машинки, – говорит он. – Рынок винтажных изделий здесь весьма популярен, как и уличная мода». Еще одной причиной, объясняющей популярность независимых магазинов, может служить тот факт, что Берлин в какой-то мере свободен от засилья сетевых магазинов, считает Вибке Деерц, основатель AD Deertz. «Раньше местные мужчины одевались в универмагах, и это привело к спросу на независимые магазины одежды, подобные тем, которыми женщины пользуются уже несколько лет подряд. – поясняет он. – Мир независимой дизайнерской одежды не так уж прост и имеет ряд своих особенностей – главное внимание здесь уделяется тканям и деталям, нежели трендам и стилям. Но в Берлине именно это и приветствуется». feinundripp.de, darklandsberlin.com, burgundschild.com, chelseafarmersclub.de, sotostore.com, addeertz.com 64: Sparkle And Shine

Трикотажный Бурлеск Дизайнер Маркус Люпфер покоряет модную индустрию превосходным чувством

юмора. В интервью Салли Макилхоун он рассказывает о своих коллекциях и вдохновении Для поклонников моды немецкий дизайнер Маркус Люпфер в представлении не нуждается. Он превратил скучный, объемный трикотаж, который мы нехотя надеваем при первом похолодании, в яркую и веселую одежду. Благодаря своим джемперам с блестками в форме губ, животных и рожков с мороженым, он прославился на весь мир и не собирается останавливаться на достигнутом. В его коллекции осень-зима 2015/16 представлены потрясающие мини-платья с гобеленовым принтом, юбки и курткибомберы, а также костюмы, обильно украшенные металлическими деталями. «В основу коллекции положена идея таинственного сада, – поясняет Люпфер. – Здесь и лесные жители, и садовые гномы, и запретный плод. Мы сосредоточили наше внимание на темной палитре и роскошных тканях». Слегка мрачные оттенки придают коллекции зрелости, разбавленной молодежными аксессуарами: шерстяными шляпами с кошачьими ушками, помпонами и ювелирными украшениями. Фаворитами коллекции дизайнер считает солнечные очки с цветочным принтом и «жаккардовую парку свободного покроя», которые смотрятся вместе «очень особенно». Своим интересом к проектированию одежды Люпфер обязан бабушке, которая «оказала значительное влияние и вдохновила вступить на тропу моды». «Она была очень элегантной женщиной. Ее сестра была швеей, и я каждый раз с большим удовольствием приходил к ней в гости». Люпфер с отличием окончил Вестминстерский университет Лондона по специальности дизайн одежды. Его выпускная коллекция была продана в престижном лондонском бутике Koh Samui, а спустя четыре года он получил премию New Generation award от Британского совета моды (BFC). Серьезное влияние на творчество дизайнера оказали Германия и Великобритания, где он жил последнее globalblue.com

время. Германии он благодарен за полученные технические навыки, а в Англии он нашел прочную основу для дизайнерского процесса. Фирменным почерком Люпфера считается узор в виде губ, появившийся из привычки дизайнера рисовать в конце своих писем «маленькие губы», означающие поцелуй. «Именно так появился узор “блестящие губы”», – поясняет Люпфер. Символ губ стал неотъемлемой частью эстетики дизайнера, которую он описывает, как «современную, удобную и немного забавную», а в своих поклонниках Люпфер видит «молодых, веселых искателей приключений с хорошим чувством юмора». Коллекции дизайнера невероятно точно передают энергию молодости и дух моды, а также свидетельствуют об отличном чувстве юмора автора. К примеру, его джемперы из коллекции весна-лето 2015 украшены надписями «Crush» и «Mermaid», и Люпфер считает, что эти вещи хоть и считаются «эксклюзивными и особенными, но при этом отлично подходят для повседневной носки». С виду забавные, но в то же время элегантные коллекции Люпфера привлекли немало современных звезд. По словам дизайнера, актриса Бритт Робертсон «роскошно смотрелась» в одном из его нарядов, кроме того, среди других поклонников творчества дизайнера были замечены Бейонсе, Рианна и Мадонна. «Всегда приятно видеть людей в нашей одежде, особенно молодых и ярких талантов», – говорит он. Получив несколько наград и снискав популярность в рядах знаменитых личностей, Люпфер решительно настроен помогать молодым дизайнерам, начинающим свою карьеру. Одним из своих больших достижений Люпфер считает «поддержку небольших групп дизайнеров в Эфиопии, разрабатывающих свои коллекции и только вступающих на путь индустрии моды». Работа по продвижению малоизвестных дизайнеров, по словам Люпфера, приносит «небывалое внутреннее удовлетворение». Не часто встретишь,

Великолепная Концепция

чтобы признанный во всем мире дизайнер решил посвятить свое драгоценное время на обучение подрастающего поколения модельеров, особенно из менее состоятельных слоев общества. В этом проглядывается отличная черта характера дизайнера: к своей работе он подходит с большой долей юмора, но в то же время испытывает сострадание и желание помочь другим. Что касается настоящего момента, то его внимание сосредоточено на коллекциях очков и обуви для сезона весна-лето 2016: «Я жду не дождусь их выхода!» Как, впрочем, и мы с вами. markuslupfer.com

В берлинском квартале Митте открылось новое стильное место. Джози Тадеус-Джонс провел день, исследуя концептуальный магазин «the Store» Одно из самых последних и захватывающих новшеств Берлина с трудом поддается определению. И хотя это место называется the Store (магазин), оно едва ли вписывается в рамки субъекта розничной торговли. На территории этого роскошного заведения представлено немало местных и международных брендов, а также кафе, салон красоты, парикмахерская, отдел товаров для дома и еще много всего интересного. «Это культурный центр, где люди могут весело проводить время, – поясняет директор the Store, Селия Солф. – Мы хотели создать уютное место, где себя можно чувствовать как дома, работать или тратить деньги, но где никто ни к чему не обязывает».

Te Store является частью приватного клуба и отеля Soho House Berlin, расположенного в историческом здании в районе Митте. Однако несмотря на престижное расположение и огромные окна, ни у кого не вызывает сомнений, что здесь царит расслабленная атмосфера. При входе внутрь в глаза бросается витрина солнечных очков LGR в винтажном стиле и потрясающие ювелирные украшения Delfna Delettrez. Ассортимент одежды варьируется от всемирно известных брендов, таких как Joseph и Alexander Wang, до менее известных, включая Vetements и Trager Delaney, некоторые изделия которых представлены в магазине эксклюзивно. Мужчины могут найти для себя хороший выбор коллекций Christopher Kane с графическими принтами и беззаботный парижский шик от AMI. По словам Солф, основной характеристикой представленных в the Store вещей является «элегантность, унисекс и комфорт», а также долговечное

качество. «Все, что вы найдете у нас, будет прекрасным дополнением к гардеробу, независимо от сезона. Мы предпочитаем вещи, которые вы можете не выбрасывать, а одеть на следующую зиму, например красивый кашемировый пуловер», – говорит она. Особенно выделяется серия головных уборов Rike Feuerstein и клатчи Jil Sander из желтой кожи. Обширный отдел домашней утвари также впечатлит посетителей the Store. Среди товаров представлены работы как местных, так и зарубежных ремесленников: наряду с берберскими ковриками из Марокко здесь можно обнаружить матрасы Daniel Heer из лошадиной шерсти, которые делаются прямо за углом в мастерской на Rosa-Luxemburg-Strasse. «Они слишком симпатичные чтобы класть их на кровать», – восклицает Солф. Большой ошибкой будет побывать здесь и не зайти в местный салон красоты, где обслуживают как мужчин, так и женщин. В Cheeky Parlour дамы смогут сделать безупречный маникюр, а мужчины смогут подровнять бороду или подстричься в парикмахерской Neville. Во время отдыха можно пролистать журналы, подобранные берлинским globalblue.com

издательским домом «Do You Read Me?», а также винтажные издания моды, предоставленные «Idea books». Если вам повезет встать рано и прийти в the Store прямо с утра, то вы сможете застать свежую выпечку, хлеб из полбы или банановый хлеб. Кулинарными приготовлениями заведуют Джонни Коллинз и Томми Таннок, которые добились большого успеха в Лондоне и теперь завоевывают столицу Германии. «Мы стараемся сотрудничать с частными производителями, насколько это возможно, а нашим идеалом всегда было органическое питание, лишенное коммерческого подтекста», – говорит Коллинз. В меню кроме всего прочего можно обнаружить оригинальные салаты, свежевыжатые соки и мюсли домашнего приготовления. Все, что вы найдете в магазине, от столовых приборов Sue Binns в кафе до цветочных композиций Mary Lennox, – можно будет купить. «Идея заключается в том, что посетители могут приобрести абсолютно все, что они видят в магазине. Продается все, кроме сотрудников!», – смеется Солф. Представьте, что вы в гостях у друга с удивительным вкусом на вещи, только здесь вам дается шанс забрать домой

107

все, что вы пожелаете. Нет сомнений, что за этой идеей будущее. Сотрудники магазина весьма добродушны, но отлично знают свое дело, а творческий коллектив, отвечающий за развитие и обновление магазин, не перестает удивлять новыми идеями. Оригинальным вещам здесь всегда уделяется особое место, будь то блюдо в кафе или временная коллаборация. Учитывая такой насыщенный ассортимент, здесь легко можно провести целый день. «Я еще ни разу не взглянула на часы, чтоб узнать, сколько времени пролетело», – восклицает Солф. thestore-berlin.com 101: When You Shop Te World,

Scheunenviertel区域）、十字山区（Kreuzberg）、 普伦茨劳贝格（Prenzlauer Berg）以及柏林动物园 周边街道。据McDougall称，其中几家地理位置“ 比较隐蔽” ，需花费些功夫才能找到。 地处僻静区域的商店需要为顾客提供特殊的 商品才能够积累正面口碑。 “若要打造自己的理 念，开设独一无二的商店，优质商品以及上乘服务 确是越来越重要， ”Burg & Schild创始人Shane Brandenburg说道。 柏林是个充满鲜明对比的城市：越来越多的外 国旅客正被吸引至这个经济蓬勃发展的地方，而与 此同时，某些区域的租金又不会太贵，整个城市的 血液中都流淌着艺术，存在着一种健康的反正统文 化。 “一种非常独立的精神正在不断蔓延，带来了许 多不同的‘景象’ ， ”Brandenburg解释道。 “有些设计 十分独特，有时甚至可称之为极端，但是它们都为柏 林所接受，而许多其他城市则往往难以容忍任何突 破常规的事物。在柏林，男士可以随性穿着。” McDougall补充道，近年来，柏林著名的夜生 活及夜店文化更是为男装行业带来了巨大推力。 “很 多年轻人将他们在集市上和设计师品牌促销时期买 的衣服，与设计师朋友的作品和在家中自行改制的 服装混搭在一起， ”他说道。 “这里的古董服装市场 非常强劲，街头服饰亦然。” AD Deertz的创立者Wibke Deertz认为，独 立商店不断兴盛崛起的部分原因在于连锁商店并没 有完全霸占柏林。 “柏林的男士已不再只去百货商店 选购服装，更多的独立男装店便应运而生，而这样 的独立服装店在女装行业已有好一段历史了。”她解 释道。 “独立时装设计入门很难，男装也有其特殊挑 战——男装更注重面料和细节，而不是风格上的极 致变幻。但是柏林对于这样的设计却尤其欢迎。”

荣誉学位毕业。他的毕业设计在Koh Samui，这间 伦敦最为人称道的、出售新人设计师作品的店铺中 有售。仅仅过了四年，他便被英国时装理事会授予 New Generation“新生代”大奖。曾在德国与英国 居住过的Lupfer，认为两个国家都帮助他塑造出创 意慧眼，德国磨练了他的专业技能，英国则为他的设 计流程打下了坚实基础。 Lupfer设计中最知名的图案是一对噘起的亮 片嘴唇，灵感来源于他喜欢在信件末尾画上“小小 手绘嘴唇”来代表亲吻的习惯。 “这是亮片嘴唇的原 型， ”Lupfer解释道。这个小嘴唇也浓缩着Lupfer 式美学，即“摩登、耐穿与略略诙谐” ，设计师认为自 己的顾客们是“年轻、快乐、寻求冒险”与“有幽默 感的”。 值得一提的是，Lupfer的针织系列中同样洋溢 着年轻、跃动的活力与不少“女孩风”的幽默元素。 例如2015年春夏系列中的亮片毛衣，就诉说着“暗 恋”与“美人鱼“的故事，这些单品被Lupfer视作“ 匠心独具但同样适合每天穿着的设计款”。 以耐穿、有趣又不失优雅的风格获得市场青 睐，Lupfer牢牢吸引着名流的目光。他表示，女星 Britt Robertson被目击身着当季的某件作品并且“ 美若天仙” ，Beyoncé、Rhianna与Madonna也同样 穿过他的设计作品。 “见到人们穿我们的衣服总是令 人无比兴奋，特别是那些年轻、激动人心、才华出众 的人物， ”他表示。 即便屡获殊荣且作品被一线明星争相穿 着，Lupfer仍决心为那些刚开始职业生涯的设计师 们提供帮助。Lupfer口中自己最值得骄傲的成就， 是“帮助一小群埃塞俄比亚设计师开发他们的作品， 并助他们步上职业生涯。”帮助培养无名设计师的 经验被Lupfer形容为“真正有所值”。对功成名就 的国际知名设计师而言，从繁忙日程表中抽出时间 关心未来一代并不常见，特别是那些出身并不起眼 的。这也侧面彰显出Lupfer的性格：他可能热衷追 逐趣味，但当牵涉到设计时，他是极富同情心并积极 回报社会的。 不过目前而言，他的重心是2016年春夏的太阳 镜与鞋履系列： “这两个系列都让我心潮澎湃！”当 然，勿庸置疑的，我们也迫不及待。 markuslupfer.com
