Spring/Summer Collection 2007_2

Cologne/Paris 5.10.06 From the 5th to the 8th of October 2006 the new eva gronbach

summer 2007 collection (women, mens, accessories, shoes) will be presented at the

Designer Salon RENDEZ-VOUS in Paris. It has been created in honour of german artist

Karl Valentin (1882 – 1948).

The collection is characterized by a slim silhouette, the hallmark of german artist and

comedian Karl Valentin’s appearance.

The clear shape is emphasised by the contrasting colours black, white and grey. The

collection comprises blazers, jackets, skirts, pants and shirts of which the clear cut is

intermitted by the material selection. Fine japanese ribbons complete the line. The

womens collection shows puff sleeves in different variations on shirts, blousons and

jackets.

Knitwear like pullovers and slip-ons with V-neck or roundneck have braces elements built

in. Slim ties, some of them knitted complete the suit line for men and women. Materials

are viscose, cotton and a cotton-metallic mix – some shiny fabrics and some with a matt

silk finish.

With her collections the young german designer sets topical issues in a new fashion

context and thus inspires discussions. She first caused a stir on the international fashion

scene with her collection 2000 "Declaration d’amour à l’Allemagne".

Eva Gronbach: “It is exciting to see how fashion is able to alter peoples perceptions.“

The latest spring/summer 2007 collection is created in honour of german artist Karl
