Q&A

Interview with Verena Wondrak, founder and designer of the kidswear label Hilda.Henri from Vienna, Austria. What is the story behind your label’s name Hilda.Henri? I love stories to things. And of course there is a story to Hilda.Henri: My grandmother, to whom I had a close bond, was born in Vienna and her first name was Hilda. The name Henri I just love very much and if I had a son instead of a daughter I would have called him Henri. Why did you choose milled loden for your collection? I know milled loden since I was a child. Already in kindergarten my mother put my sister and myself always in milled loden jackets. I remember my red milled loden „janker“ very well: it was edged dark blue and had little silver metal buttons. I loved to wear it together with my green kilt. My mother used to combine the traditional material with fashionable parts. Many years later, as a student at the Fashion school ESMOD, I rediscovered this particular natural material again during my internship at an Austrian dress maker in Salzburg. Since then, milled loden has been my favorite fabric. After the birth of my daughter I was sure: Children‘s fashion from Walk, that`s what I want to make! And I wanted to do it my way: authentic, especially high quality and timeless. My garments should be able to be passed through the family and live long. What is so special about this fabric? Walk is a natural wool product without any chemical additives and with temperature regulating and breathable effect. It is ideal for use in children‘s fashion. Wollwalk from pure new wool or merino wool is soft, lightweight, hardwearing, water resistant and durable. It adapts to fit the body shape of the child. The precious lanolin obtains with the after manufacturing process.

In addition, the walking process is a traditional, eco-friendly and environmentally conscious manufacturing, which satisfy my own eco-social aspiration. What ist the structure of your collection? The centerpieces of my collections are quality made coats, jackets and capes from Walkloden, for girls and boys. These are complemented with skirts, dresses, pants, and knitwear. I offer my garments in double sizes so that they accompany the children several seasons and may become favourite pieces. Size 2 years (86/92) up to size 16 years (170/176). With each collection there are new accessories such as hats, headbands and scarves. Since 2014, selected parts are also available in women‘s sizes. Mother & child in matching outfits! Where do you get your design inspiration from? For my collections I always work with history and stories. For spring/ summer 2015 the story is called „Medows dance“. It takes us on a long expedition into the world of fantasy, with little miracles and great adventures on the way through this fairy tale. On what can we look forward to in the new spring/ summer collection 2015? This summer we present an exciting new discovery: hand printing. This process was in alpine areas once very popular for finishing „Dirndl“ costume and fabrics. For the wide flowing dresses and summer coats the prints and sophisticated cuts provide a fine vintage look. The lightness of summer is reflected in the choice of materials: for the first time particularly lighter and softer Walk (100% merino wool) and organic linen (GOTS-certified) is used. Aqua, light gray, chalk and mustard, are the colors of summer 2015 by Hilda.Henri.

Verena Wondrak, Designer with a Sustainable Claim After graduating from the premier design university ESMOD in Munich I gathered experience in the fashion business. Following professional positions as a fashion designer for a string of well-known brands, and working as a central buyer and manager in the retail trade, the next step to creating my own collection was almost predestined. With a grant from departure (the Creative Agency of the City of Vienna), I founded Hilda.Henri, a premium milled loden and knitwear collection with an emphasis on sustainability at the beginning of 2013.

Interview mit Verena Wondrak, Gründerin und Designerin des Wiener Kindermode Labels Hilda.Henri. Verena Wondrak - Designerin mit nachhaltigem Anspruch. Nach dem Abschluss an der renommierten Internationalen Modeschule ESMOD in München sammelte Verena Wondrak Erfahrungen im Modebusiness. Nach beruflichen Stationen als Modedesignerin für zahlreiche bekannte Marken und Zentraleinkäuferin sowie Geschäftsführerin für den Einzelhandel, war der nächste Schritt zur eigenen Kollektion fast vorbestimmt. Mit der Förderung durch die Wirtschaftsagentur Wien gründete Verena Wondrak Anfang 2013 mit Hilda.Henri eine hochwertige Walk- und Strickkollektion mit nachhaltigem Anspruch. „Ich möchte mit meinen Entwürfen Emotionen wecken, Geschichten erzählen und Erinnerungen hervorrufen“, sagt die Mutter einer dreijährigen Tochter. „Alle meine Entwürfe haben eine klare Botschaft: Hilda.Henri ist optimistisch! Ich glaube daran, dass Lebensfreude und Verantwortungsgefühl vereinbar sind und dass Verantwortung nicht mit Verzicht einhergehen muss“, erklärt Verena Wondrak ihre Motivation. Was steht hinter dem Namen Hilda.Henri? Gibt es hierzu eine besondere Geschichte?

circus magazine

Ich liebe Geschichten zu den Dingen. Und natürlich gibt es auch eine Geschichte zu Hilda.Henri: Meine Großmutter, zu der ich eine enge Bindung hatte, war gebürtige Wienerin und hieß Hilda. Den Namen Henri mag ich sehr gern und hätte ich statt einer Tochter einen Sohn bekommen so wäre sein Name Henri. Wie kamen sie auf die Idee eine WalklodenKollektion für Kinder zu gründen? Walk begleitet mich schon seit meiner Kindheit. Meine Mama hat meine Schwester und mich bereits im Kindergarten in Walkjacken gesteckt. Ich erinnere mich gut an meinen roten Walkjanker: er war dunkelblau eingefasst und hatte kleine silberne Metallknöpfe. Am liebsten trug ich dazu meinen grünen Schottenrock. Meine Mutter kombinierte schon damals das traditionelle Material mit modischen Teilen. Viele Jahre später, als Studentin an der Modeschule ESMOD, kam mir dieses besondere Naturmaterial während meines Praktikums Kleidermacher im Salzburger Land wieder unter die Finger. Seitdem ist Walk mein Lieblingsstoff! Nach der Geburt meiner Tochter war klar: Kindermode aus Walk, das will ich machen! Weg von der Tracht: authentisch, besonders, hochwertig und zeitlos. Meine Kleidungsstücke sollen durch die Familie gereicht werden können und lange leben.

Was ist das Besondere an diesem Material für Sie? Walk ist ein natürliches Wollprodukt ohne chemische Zusätze und mit temperaturregulierender und atmungsaktiver Wirkung. Er eignet sich hervorragend für die Verwendung in der Kindermode. Wollwalk aus reiner Schur- oder Merinowolle ist weich, leicht, strapazierfähig, wasserabweisend und langlebig. Er passt sich der Körperform des Kindes an. Das wertvolle Lanolin bleibt der Wolle beim Herstellungsprozess erhalten. Außerdem ist das Walken eine traditionelle, umweltschonende und ökologisch bewusste Fertigung, die meinem eigenen ökosozialen Anspruch gerecht wird. Aus welchen Artikel und Größen ist Ihre Kollektion aufgebaut? Herzstück meiner Kollektionen sind hochwertig verarbeitete Mäntel, Jacken und Capes aus Walkloden, für Mädchen und Buben. Ergänzt werden diese Teile mit Röcken, Kleidern, Hosen, und Strick. Ich biete meine Kleidungsstücke in Doppelgrößen an, so dass sie die Kinder mehrere Saisonen begleiten und zu Lieblingsteilen werden können. Gr.2 (86/92) bis Gr.16 (170/176). Zu jeder Kollektion gibt es innovative Accessoires wie z.B. Mützen, Stirnbänder oder Schals. Ab 2014 sind ausgesuchte Teile auch in Damengrößen mit im

Programm. Mutter & Kind im Partnerlook! Woher kommen Ihre Inspirationen für das Design der Kollektion Hilda.Henri? Ich arbeite bei meinen Kollektionen immer mit Geschichte und Geschichten. Für Frühjahr/ Sommer 2015 heißt die Geschichte „Medows dance“. Sie erzählt von ausgedehnten Streifzügen durch die Welt der Phantasie, den kleinen Wundern und grossen Abenteuern auf dem Weg durch dieses Land. Auf was dürfen wir uns in der neuen Frühjahr/ Sommer Kollektion 2015 besonders freuen? Diesen Sommer wartet die Designerin mit einer weiteren spannenden Neuentdeckung auf: dem Handdruck. Dieses Verfahren war im alpinen Raum einst sehr populär zum Veredeln von Trachten- und Dirndlstoffen. Den weit fallenden Kleidern und Sommermänteln verleihen Druck und raffinierte Schnitte einen edlen Vintage-Look. Die Leichtigkeit des Sommers spiegelt sich in der Auswahl der Materialien: zum ersten Mal kommen besonders leichter und weicher Walk (100% Merinowolle) sowie Bio-Leinen (GOTS-zertifiziert) Aqua, Hellgrau, Kreide und Senf sind die Farben des Sommers 2015 von Hilda.Henri. www.hildahenri.com

It is an easy and beautiful gift. Make the neckless colourful and as long or short as you like. You can also use a nylon string. We used special beed strings with a „needle“ fixed to the string. That made it easier threading the beads. If you don‘t want to make the tassels yourself you can buy them ready made and just fix them to the neckless. Enjoy!

„Wall Stories“ THE BERLIN ARTISTS INKA GIERDEN AND JULIEN COLLIEUX

circus magazine

„SCHÖNE, FARBENFROHE WÄNDE GEBEN MENSCHEN DAS GEFÜHL, GEBORGEN ZU SEIN.“

andmalerei ist eine der ältesten überlieferten Kulturleistungen. Für das Berliner Künstlerpaar Inka Gierden und Julien Collieux (Julien stammt aus Marseille, die beiden haben drei Kinder) bedeutet Wandmalerei in erster Linie Räume zu verwandeln, ihnen Atmosphäre zu verleihen und den persönlichen Stil des Bewohners zu spiegeln. Inspiriert durch traditionelle Wandgestaltungstechniken spielen die Künstler mit Farbe, Formen und Nuancen. Die Farbstimmung steht im Vordergrund und wird durch gemalte Details, Ornamente und Muster ergänzt. Dabei verwenden sie vorwiegend Farbpigmente nach alten Rezepturen. In ihrem Atelier in Berlin-Kreuzberg, im dritten Hinterhof eines Altbauhauses, ganz verwunschen und idyllisch, arbeiten das Ehepaar. Hier fertigen sie auch kleine Bilder für die Wand: Fische auf Gold, kleine Zwerge, Mädchen, die den Schlaf des Kindes behüten, zauberhafte Dekorationen für‘s Kinderzimmer. „Wir lasieren die Farben in mehren Schichten, daraus entsteht Tiefe“, erklärt die Künstlerin. Es 64

ist verblüffend. Sogar vergleichsweise kleine Wände wirken so größer und anziehender. „Ich arbeite gern auf alten Wänden“, sagt Inga Gierke. Weil alte Wände Geschichten erzählen. Die meisten der verwendeten Farben kommen aus Frankreich, weil das Bemalen von Wänden dort eine längere und vor allem etabliertere Tradition hat. „Ich würde mir in Deutschland mehr Farbmut wünschen“, sagt Inka Gierden, „in England und Frankreich zum Beispiel hat man die weiße Wand nie geliebt, dort haben die Künstler immer mit Ockerfarben gearbeitet. Wir verwenden vorwiegend Farbpigmente nach alten Rezepturen.“ Aus Gläsern und Plastikdosen mit Kaseinfarben und Natur-Farbpigmenten in Grün-, Grau-, Braun- und Blautönen, von leuchtendem Gelb bis Knallrot mischen die beiden die Traumfarben ihrer Kunden. Die Preise für die Wandlung hängt von der Beschaffenheit der Räume und Wände ab, eine Altbauwand (fünf mal dreieinhalb Meter) kostet rund 1300 Euro. Zeitloser Schönheit, vereint mit Handwerkskunst. www.wand-lungen.de

„BEAUTIFUL, COLOURFUL WALLS MAKE PEOPLE FEEL PROTECTED.“

ural painting is one of the oldest traditional cultural achievements. For Berlin artists couple, Inca Gierden and Collieux Julien (Julien comes from Marseille, and they have three children) it means to transform the atmosphere of a room and reflect the personal style of the resident. Inspired by traditional wall design techniques, the artists like to play with color, shapes and shades. The color tone is prioritised and is complemented by painted designs, ornaments and patterns. hey are used most of all pigments according to old recipes. In their studio in Berlin-Kreuzberg, in the third inner courtyard of an oldstyle house, is especially magical and enchanting. Here they make little pictures for the wall, for beginners, so to speak fishes on a gold background, small dwarves and girls watching over the child as it sleeps, when the picture is hung above their bed. “We glaze the colours in several layers which lends depth”, the artist explains, „and we mainly use pigments based on old formulae“. It is

astonishing - even comparatively small walls look so much larger and more attractive. “I like working on old walls”, says Inga Gierden. That is because old walls have tales to tell.“ Most of the paints originate in France, because painting walls enjoys a longer and, in particular, more firmly -established tradition there. “I would like to see more use of colours in Germany”, says Inga Gierden. “In Britain and France, for example, people have never liked a white wall - there, artists have always worked with ochres. We mainly use pigments based on old formulae. Inka and Julien mix their customers’ dream colours from bright yellow to vivid red, from jars and plastic containers with casein colours and natural pigments in green, grey, brown and blue tones. The prices for the transformation depend on the condition of the rooms and the walls. A wall in an old building (five times three-and-a half metres), costs around 1,300 euros. It‘s timeless beauty, combined with old craftsmanship! www.wand-lungen.de circus magazine
