Fashion has no size!

Welcome Spring 23!

Welcome to the season we look most forward to with its fresh colors and promises of brighter days. This year we are dreaming of ESCAPING from the trivia of everyday life. We want to fy out into the world and possibly fnd somewhere that we can forget – just for a moment. Don’t get me wrong – I love my life and I know the whole ZOEY team love the spirit we have in the offce.

But we are undergoing so many changes at the moment.

The world is a different one from what it was just six months ago. We are working on new ways to design, produce & transport everything that is ZOEY. And of course, that affects us all.

We are also adjusting to a world where “just” being a fashion brand isn’t enough.

We have a clear and ongoing vision with ZOEY: Dressing the curvy woman, so she feels comfortable and confdent! And we are super ready to tell this story to the world, and maybe unveiling more about our mission than we have been before. Equality is on the agenda, and we have been fghting a silent fght for 6 years. Now we are ready to speak up about what we actually believe in.

When we deal with equality there are no limits.

We will never get anywhere if “we” (red. curves) gang up and discriminate on “small sizes”.

I believe in communities and fnding likeminded that have had similar experiences. But we must have faith that there is a place for us all and that no one is better than the other. We portrait models that vary in size. Nynne, whom you see on the front page, is wearing a size ZOEY 42. We proudly produce sizes from 38-56.

We believe that FASHION HAS NO SIZE! And we hope that you, no matter your size, will fnd inspiration in our images. Now come with me on a journey through this magazine – we will both be fying high and arriving at a party in style.

The Designers Choices

”My husband asked me if the 80’ies are back in fashion and my answer were: ”Sure, but actually you can pick any decade you like” - We are seeing Y2K fashion (red.: Year 2000) for youth, 80’ies inspired street style and a lot of retro & thrift shop inspired looks. I also want to escape back to better days and for me the Boheme chic of the 70’ies mixed with some Working Girl vibes are a perfect blend for my taste.”

” I am so fascinated by the 70’s hairdos and this cool curtain bags look. Maybe one day I will have the courage to get it myself.”

”I am completely hooked on taking pictures with a polaorid camera after doing it at the Spring 23 photoshoot - I would love to capture my family’s summer old-fashioned style.”

What’s trending for Spring 23?

Keyword: Comfort

Keyword: Prepared!

Keyword: Control of the situation

The world in Spring 23 It is no secret that these are turbulent times we live in.

And this presents a change in our collective minds and a shift in focus. Trends show that we focus a lot more on our lives at home including, cooking, pets, DIY and gardening. The pandemic has forced us to slow down, and many have found that this calm lifestyle is very fulflling for them. But every trend has a countertrend and now that the world is open again, we dream of escaping, travelling, and owning our future.

Keyword: Balance

Why study trends?

Understanding trends and studying consumer behavior ’in the future’ is a tool for designers when we need to be ahead of time. At ZOEY we design collections a year before the styles are released in stores. This is the time needed for ftting, construction, production, and logistics to all do their job to perfection. This way we ensure that the products live up to our standards.

ZOEY Faroe Islands loves

We asked our agent on the Faroe Islands, Martin E. Nielsen to give his best insigths to the beautiful Faroe Islands.

”As an agent on the Faroe Islands for 45 years, I have been so lucky as to follow the development of the country.

Today 53.000 inhabitants live on the 18 islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, approx. 1200km from Denmark.

The main part live in Tórshavn County, approx.. 23.000 people.

The Faroe Islands are going to a perfect holiday destination for any nature lover and probably the only place in the world where you can experience 3-4 seasons in one day, depending on when you visit.”

Gásadalur, which is situated on the island Vagar, where you also fnd the airport.

”A new 11 km underground tunnel connects Tórshavn with Strendur and Toftir is the only tunnel with a roundabout under water. The roundabout is decorated with glass art by Trondur Patursson, that also made glass art for Copenhagen Airport.”

Some of the most special places to visit are:

• Mykines, that you sail to from the island Søvágur

• Gásadalur, which is situated on the island Vagar, where you also fnd the airport.

• From Vestmanna you can have a great experience sailing along the Vestmanna mountains.

• Kirkjubøur – Kirkebø the church of Olavs from approx. 1250.

• Saksun – one of the most beautiful places!

• Tinganes, the old town in Tórshavn, that has also starred in Danish movies.

• Gjógv on the North coast of Eysturoy, approx.. 67 km from Tórshavn.

Saksun – one of the most beautiful places!

”The people of the Faroe Islands are in general very nice and helpful and probably the only place that has so many registered football players pr. habitant. Every town have their own football club and their own stadium. They have 3 divisions with men’s football clubs around all the islands. I had the pleasure of experiencing the last national game between Faroe Islands and Denmark, where we had a lot of trouble during the game, but ended up winning 1-0. ”

Enjoy on the road Croissants with Cottage Cheese and Herbs

These croissants must be one of the easiest snacks to make, especially if you use a ready-made dough. And who doesn’t love a quick fx ;)

Ingredients

6 pcs.

• Croissant dough

(Pssst… I use the ready-made kind)

• 200g. cottage cheese

• 1 handful green herbs

• 1 clove of garlic

• 1 tbs. water

• Salt & pepper

How to:

Blend the cottage cheese with the green herbs, garlic, salt & pepper. Add a tbs. water to make it creamier. Butter the green crème on to the croissant dough and roll them up. Bake at 180C. for 12-15 min. Enjoy on the road!

The cottage cheese crème is also really great as dip for vegetable sticks or as spread in a sandwich.

Influenced by Vildana

We asked our girl crush Vildana, who is also a ZOEY infuencer, to share her insider secrets to her hometown Mülheim and where she is dreaming of travelling to next.

What is your favorite travel destination? And why? My most lovely travel destination is to my home country Bosnia and to the Riviera of Croatia because there I’m feeling incredibly happy and don’t have any negative thoughts. What is your most memorable travel experience?

I cannot forget the time in France. I’m obsessed of the Côte d’Azur because I loved the fantastic food and how positive the people are.

How do you plan to spend your holiday this summer? I planned to visit Bosnia and Croatia. I cannot wait to see the beaches and the sea and to breath the fresh sea air.

What to see when in Mülheim?

What are your favorite places to visit in your own city?

In Mülheim/Ruhr I love to visit the MüGa Park and the Old Town. These two places remind me of many wonderful moments in my childhood. What would you recommend visitors to experience?

The MüGa Park is just a must have for visitors. There is an old castle and a gigantic garden with many fowers and a playground for the little visitors.
