Dimitri Arvanitis AW17

March 15, 2017

Dimitri Arvanitis is of Greek-German descent and was trained at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp (Class of 2013). The brand started in 2015 as a series of small collections where the designs focus on the visual realization of the final products through creative collaborations (as in this one with Kira and Gary). The menswear collection of 7 looks is the 2nd one by the brand.

The collection is a reflection of growing up in between two cultures and their relation to each other nowadays. What started as a quite naive research that was focussed on fashion and visuals of the early 00s and Berlin being the ultimate place to be, it gained deeper meaning and made much more sense after my residence in Athens, where the financial crisis and the arrival of refugees seem more present than in any other country. I adopted prints and elements (fist and flash, Berlin flag) from a label called Industrie 77. back in its day, which seem to fit present protests around the globe. The embroidered German eagle emblem on the other hand is headless because of the deep V-necks and leaves its political orientation - whether it is looking to the left or right - open.

25 Years of Rodebjer

November 20, 2025

Rodebjer turned 25 this year. In celebration of this anniversary, the brand is launching its new "Love Letter" capsule collection, which empowers the women who have shaped its vision since being founded in 2000. Created in New York and designed for women on the go, the capsule features statement print designs that reimagine the beauty of Victorian love tokens for the 21st century.

Carin Rodebjar said this about the collection, "I took inspiration from American journalist, social activist and anarchist Dorothy Day and her prison dress. She was imprisoned for protesting women’s exclusion for the electorate in front of the White House in 1917, along with 40 women from the same suffrage movement. There is a photo of Dorothy, holding up her prison dress with handwritten names all over it. The Love Letter print echoes Dorothy’s bravery and features names of amazing women who have been leading my way."

Products in this range include a silk scarf, printed tee, canvas tote, and a reinvention of the brand's signature Agave dress. Launching on November 21st, the collection will be available both online at rodebjer.com and in stores.
