Rough left with tears in their eyes, but as it turned out, not neizvestnost.Ya very happy that join to the house with a great history. Dior has always been a symbol of absolute elegance and an honor for me to work zdes.Dlya famous French brand Simons will prepare a collection of Haute Couture and Ready-to-Wear, and besides, the designer will be engaged and accessories.

Yet a few years later decided to become self-Simons menswear designer. During his studies, internship at Walter van Beyrendonka, but then first came to the fashion week in Paris and became interested in fashion. So he have quite a bit of time to finally make sure that it was not created for industrial design, and as a result, in 1995 he moved to Antwerp, where it is a crucial meeting with Linda Loppa, at that time head of department of the Royal Academy of fashion .

The first collection for Jil Sander consisted of black dresses, white shirts and narrow skirts maxi Clothing minimalist, respectful towards women and very beautiful. This is probably echoes the new things that Raf Simons can bring into fashion: a view of heterosexual men.
But next season Simons showed all the things for which he will love his future collections: perfect fit, bright colors and tech fabric. il Sander and bright colors? Jil Sander and sequins? Of course, brand bewitched.
