Independent Fashion: Style Server

Style Server

I'm amazed at how many and wonderful fashion labels can be accessed through the internet. I'm glad I stumbled upon this online shop StyleServer that promotes independent designers, maybe you've been aware of it longer than I was, and, under its patronage (or maybe is the other way round) this great fashion and art blog: Bored&Beautiful. The shop is based in Berlin and it sells independent international labels, among which Adddress became my new favorite.

What is great about independent labels is the high quality of fabrics and finishes, some with haute couture-worthy details. Just look at this jumpsuit from Presque Fini.

There are also some very interesting accessories and jewelry labels among which Arena10/Copenhagen enchanted me with its pure, minimalist design.
