Evelin Brandt
FASHION FOR THE INDEPENDENT WOMAN
back
Since then this self-taught designer and her fashions have never looked back. She now designs four collections every year. The EVELIN BRANDT label sells in 14 European countries. It has outlets in the USA, Canada, Australia, and China. There are five EVELIN BRANDT stores in Berlin and ones in Cologne, Hamburg, Potsdam, Dresden, Belfast, and Taipei.
Despite her international success, 52-year-old Evelin Brandt has remained true to Berlin. Evelin Brandt and her team work in a spacious, listed building in the central Berlin district of Mitte. The company purchased the 1891 brick building in 2000 and then invested substantial amounts in its careful restoration and conversion. The juxtaposition between the building dating back a 100 years with the criteria of today’s architecture was deliberate. The result is a successful symbiosis of traditional and modern elements or, to put it another way, the calling card of EVELIN BRANDT Berlin.
The name of the company location is part of the logo. Talking about her hometown of choice, Evelin herself says: 'I would never leave Berlin due to individual cost factors. This is where the foundations for a company now operating throughout Europe were laid, this is where my employees are, and the source of all my inspiration'.
Just like Germany’s capital, Evelin Brandt's fashion stands for movement, attractiveness, and individuality. It is an expression of the feeling for life of modern women in Berlin and the wider world.
