The my-GREENstyle.com Eco-Darling of Isabell de Hillerin:
Knitting is always en vogue and in combination with the extra large, casual fit, the color-rich, plum red, super fluffy mohair sweater (70 percent mohair, 30 percent wool) of the Berlin-based Isabell de Hillerin is an absolute favorite piece, that you, once attracted, not so fast want to take off. Eyecatcher: the extra large scoop neck and long sleeves. To hip Culottes (see picture), this gem can be wear just as well with a classic pencil skirt or skinny jeans. And for a cozy evening on the couch, it is the right choice as loungewear. After graduating at the ‘Felicidad Duce’ in Barcelona, Isabell de Hillerin founded her eponymous label in Berlin. Her collections, which she displayed on the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Berlin since 2013, reflects her views of contemporary and sustainable design – modern minimalism with an extra dose of sustainability. Green couture, as we love. She attaches great importance where the substances are produced, and the conditions under which the collections are made. With clean, innovative styles and folk Romanian and Moldavian materials the Berlin-based built the bridge between modern design and time-honoured tradition.

My style is the transformation from traditional to modern – behind I can stand
The GREEN aspect at Isabell de Hillerin:
Born in Munich, originally from Romania, since 2009 she works for her collections with weavers and embroiderers from Moldova and Romania, dominated by the traditional endangered crafts techniques. The commitment of the designer ensures that these fantastic art skills, which met to date with the local population to become less interested, are preserved for posterity. Secondly, it allows the women, who are involved in the production an income.
