PB 0110
The Essential Companion Philipp Bree and his brother have been at the helm of the family business Bree for more than ten years. He started thinking about establishing his own brand in 2012 and subsequently introduced PB 0110 in Berlin and Paris in January 2013. The collection of bags and accessories is Bree's ambitious solo project. He delivered the first items to partners in Sydney, New York, Hong Kong, Basel, Berlin, Munich, London, and Paris as soon as June 2013. Philipp Bree's brand philosophy is based on his own belief in the relevance of favourite pieces; the items develop individual traits and turn into essential companions gradually. To ensure that the bags and accessories become more beautiful over time and develop a unique patina, the brand works with sustainable plant tanned natural leather, linen, and messing. The materials are processed in specialised European workshops that have excelled in the use of high quality materials over many generations. PB 0110 is available at Quartier 206 in Berlin, The Broken Arm in Paris, and Galeries Lafayette in Hong Kong for between 129 and 999 Euros.

PB 0110
214 style in progress
Maison Olga is the child of a French/Italian friendship. Designer Laurence gained experience at Louis Vuitton for many years, while designer Giula worked for Prada. Both individuals wanted to express their personalities in own creations, which led to the birth of Maison Olga and its first fashion collection in 2011. The brand chose knitwear as its trademark. The company teamed up with a weaving mill that has exclusive contracts with luxury brands and that turned out to be the perfect fit for Maison Olga's own attention to details. The designer duo draws its inspiration from the countries they have travelled through. They embark on a journey for every season and then transform their experiences into a fashion collection. This time Maison Olga is following the trails of the Incas. The journey leads through the cacti deserts in Peru to the Andes or into the jungle of the Amazon; from the gold and silver of the sun temples to the healthy green of Machu Picchu. The Jacquard knitwear with geometric patterns and lace applications is sold at Harvey Nichols in London at prices between 210 and 595 Euros.
