Onandon Spring/Summer 2014 Lookbook
Florence with a major in Knitwear, Silvia worked for differents brand’s desing and style departments, until she decided to make her passion for music and
streetwear a real business. Music has an important role in the product idea: On and On recalls the beat’s persistent repetition, and this stands for the possibility
to keep the garnment for more than one season, wearing it over the short-lived fashion statements...

HOWL by María Glück Fall/Winter 2014
With a background on visual arts and sculpture, Maria Glück decided to deepen her relation with fabric and texture, hence with fashion. It became her main interest to create collections with great challenge on fusion of materials, with creative unique shapes and with sustainable fabrics and production.
Maria Glück´ first collection was selected at EGO showroom for young designers at MBFW Madrid in 2012, when she presented H O W L. That same year, Maria Glück was finalist at III Bilbao Art & Fashion contest award.
H O W L by Maria Glück second collection FW 13-14 We are the Woods, was shown in the runway at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Madrid Feb 2013. H O W L by Maria Glück presented in Berlin Fashion Week, her SS14 collection.
Maria Glück is currently desigining her FW 14-15 collection as well as presenting H O W L's online store with an exclusive production of FW 13-14 collection.
H O W L's statement involves the use of ecological and organic fabrics, recycled materials and fabrics, as well as fabrics that come from small mills and traditional techniques. Sometimes traditional ways of producing fabrics tend to disappear, and Maria Glück aims to support these production methods by integrating these materials into her designs and helping small communities with traditional and unique weaving techniques. Often the challenge comes by the addition and combination of unconventional fabrics to more classic ones: wood or cork in fusion with organic silk.
Yet not all fabrics are organic, as recycled or mixed and synthetic fabrics (that may come from a sustainable production) may be part of the collection. Digital prints and organic dyeing when it comes to colours. Production is local or regional (EU) and sustainable, respecting all rights and labor standards.
H O W L by Maria Glück has great interest on supporting women's empowerment, as well as artist and art collaborations. Artists are a vulnearable collective, and the designer aims to support artistic collaborations and projects.

Craig Port’s SS 2013/14 collection
Cape Town based designer Craig Port is at the forefront of fashion and has become one of the definitive arbitrators of South African lifestyle.
Craig has made his mark on international runways over the last decade, having shown his collections in Mexico, Cape Town, Stockholm and Johannesburg. His annual collection is shown religiously at Cape Town Fashion Week, and is one of the most anticipated showcases of the event with fashionistas diarizing it months in advance.
The “Port Magic” glows in his diverse collections, each one reflecting his personal style, energy, enthusiasm and passion. The Port and Miss Port collections adorn rails at YDE, whilst the distinctive jewelry collection shines in display cases at Galaxy & Co. In addition, Port’s bespoke furniture collection stands proud at Wunders, and his recently launched fragrances, Paragon for Him and Her have gained wide recognition, making him one of the few South African designers to own a signature scent.
Cape Town is his inspiration, his summer playground, and the city’s resort fever has a large influence on all aspects of his designs, making each one a desirable and fun masterpiece. Craig is crazy about travel and through exploring new places and experiencing different cultures his work consistently has a global edge.
Being a mentor and inspiration in the ever growing South African design business, he spearheaded the Richard Bloom Foundation in 2006. The Foundation offers bursaries and internships to exceptional designers from disadvantaged backgrounds.
