KATHARINA HOVMAN
UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS
Since 1992, Katharina Hovman has been wowing international audiences with her extravagant purism. Working from her Hamburg studio (where all of her prototypes are still developed and executed), she creates collections that combine modern fabrics, refined cuts, feminine elegance and irreverent cool. For S/S 20, Hovman explores taffeta – ultra-light, woven from the finest possible fiber and crafted in Italy. It dries in an instant, and the memory-effect of the delicate creases render ironing unnecessary. The brand shows in Paris, New York, Berlin, Munich, Dusseldorf, Zurich and Hamburg.
