New direction for Ingrid Starnes
It’s Ingrid Starnes’ 10th anniversary, which comes with the announcement of a new direction for the New Zealand fashion brand. All Ingrid Starnes garments are made locally either in editions of one, for the bridal and made-to-measure range, or in editions of no more than 100 for all other seasonal styles. All pieces are numbered, to shine a light on the artist edition values, design decisions and process of meaningful production that goes into the clothing. The label is also moving to a four-season model, releasing fewer pieces to be able to focus more on the stories, ideas and partnerships behind the pieces – thus making each piece special, one of a consciously limited run, and steering away from over-production.
