Ingenium Existere

ILJA

Part of the collection Ingenium Existere FW 15

โ€˜Ingeniumโ€™ means โ€˜engineeringโ€™ and โ€˜existereโ€™ means โ€˜existingโ€™ or โ€˜existenceโ€™. All forms convey their own patterns, and they are all made up of the same shapes, configurations, and logic.

The elements, in which ILJA chooses to engineer her couture, are a mix of nostalgic techniques, poetic silhouettes and the nonchalant attitude of its hometown: Amsterdam. Ingenium Existereโ€™s silhouettes are sculpted in clean-cut panels that are constructed into poetic feminine volumes with an edgy, strong attitude.

Made by Renรฉ van den Berg

Material: leather and metal.
