Where does the inspiration of fashion designers come from?
Few people have heard of this brand, which can be understood as a popular brand. Chris & Tibor's design concept and inspiration are quite unique, both from England and London. Each design is named after a landmark street, area or landmark people and things, and London's historical accumulation and international popular elements are perfectly integrated into it. Most of the customers are young users aged 25-45, many of them are celebrities, including kanye west and David Beckham, and there is no shortage of female customers: "Romy Madley Croft, the lead singer of xx, the winner of this year's British Mercury Award, bought our bag the day before the award, which may bring her good luck." Chris & ampTibor's designers Liu Lujia and Tibor Mahias appeared in Hangzhou last week. They don't look like hipsters at all, but give people a feeling of "home". What do you usually wear? This appearance, because it happened to be a formal activity, both of them were dressed appropriately, both in gray-black suits and formal shoes. Chris wore a Prada suit, and Tibor chose Miu Miu (men's wear in Miu Miu was suspended after the last season of 2008). The leather shoes under his feet come from the famous Italian handmade shoe brand Stemar. "What do you think we'll wear?" When asked about his usual clothes, Chris said, "I will dress casually in private, even wearing shorts T-shirts, but as I get older, I become more formal, more organized and more quality-oriented." The two designers who founded the brand with an independent attitude are also extremely simple in clothing. They can't find an accessory on them, and even the watches common to ordinary men are gone. "Tibor is the kind of person who collects watches. He likes all countries." Chris said, "I prefer bracelets. My bracelets are not cheaper than his watches. But they are all brands of independent designers. These designers are my friends. On the one hand, they showed my support for them. Secondly, these bracelets will be very collectible. " During the conversation, the two designers will reveal some brand names from time to time, but few of them are well known. More interestingly, when asked about the spelling of these brands, Chris and Tibor will also shrug their shoulders interestingly: "If you want to know, I will send them back to you. If I don't cooperate with them, it will be difficult for me to remember these names. " Being independent doesn't mean they don't like big names. They like Balenciaga very much, and their evaluation of Prada is: "In fact, they will also do some very good things." What to wear next season? After experiencing the retro trend in the 1980s, Liu Lujia thought that the next popular trend was retro: "It should be the style in the early 1990s, casual, relaxed and professional, just like the magazines of 1990, 199 1 and 1992. You can if you are interested. For the trend of fashion, he thinks it is unspeakable: "The trend should be self-evident, and you can feel it coming. Fashion shows are useful, but no one can be sure. As a designer, my job is to read old magazines, which is my inspiration, rather than just focusing on the present. "Chris also has his own women's brand. Maggie Cheung, Shu Qi and Yang Ziqiong are all his customers. He believes that customers should have their own opinions: "They don't need me to tell them what to wear, and customers will combine reason and sensibility to make choices, especially women. Under such a choice, fashion will have that powerful chemical effect. "They also gave such a suggestion. Don't always look at big brands. Brands like Prada are no longer original. Let's take a look at the cutting-edge designers in fashion week every year, such as the independent brands that appear in London Fashion Week. The role is to provide inspiration for big brands. Liu Lujia, who was born in China, met Tibor macias, who was born in Hungary, and worked in Burberry prosser Company in London, and became friends. Based on the dual background of China and Hungary and their accumulated experience in the fashion industry for many years, they initiated cooperation in generate and founded the men's wear brand Chris &;; Tibor, the main product is men's wallets. Chris is responsible for creativity and design, working with world-class designers, and Tibor is responsible for business management and promotion. In 2008, she appeared at Paris Fashion Week and won the British Foreign Trade Award. Four years later, Chris &; Tibor is praised as a "rising star" by the international fashion industry, and their brand is called one of the most dazzling emerging luxury brands in the fashion industry. I used an old magazine and a bag made by a cutting-edge designer called "Cutting-edge". " That was in 2006. I went to the gym to exercise, but I couldn't buy a fitness bag that I was satisfied with, so I drew a sketch and gave it to my assistant to do. "Chris said, Chris &; The birth of Tibor was a beautiful accident. " When my bag was made, Tibor saw it and said it was good. Why not do more sales? It must be very popular. "So, the first batch of products were born, and buyers from Japan, Arabia, Hong Kong and other places snatched these cool handbags at the first time." Taking bags as the main product is not our choice, because the market design and business model are completely different, and this product is easy to enter the market. Tibor said: "LV production package, Prada and Gucci also have such products." Chris said that his design belongs to a completely different style: "We are not the kind of people who are bling, but we are handsome, ahead of the trend and cutting edge. "The technology from Europe combines comfort and functionality."
