Coming Soon to the Nearest Studio Tähtitorni

The fifth of May is coming with hurry and we hope you are prepared to the coming event.

Remember that the parking space is very limited. We recommend using the public transport or your very own feet. Even if you don't like fashion, do come for the music and the popcorn.

And if you love fashion more than everything else then you must make sure you're on the spot as early as you can. This is the fashion event of the year you can't afford to miss! and if you happen to have something more important than this (which is very unlikely) then you can also watch the show online later when our website opens.

We will all see you there and please don't hesitate to talk to us. We might look busy but we all love to chat with anyone who asks about our collection.

So, Don't miss the fashion event of the year! Double Bill presents End of an Eira is coming soon to your nearest Studio Tähtitorni.

Design philosophy:
I change my style as often as my hairstyle changes. Same thing happens when I design. I try not to follow same pattern and I’m always trying to design something new, something exiting.

My collection was inspired by superheroes. But when I got deeper in to that world I noticed it’s all about divided personalities. So I decided to show what would my fantasy alter ego shoes look like. I use very classic court shoe style mixing with a high platform and edgy high heel. Accessories comes with surprises.

Today's thoughts: I'm waiting the last minute panic.

Thoughts about future: I can’t wait to get to the Italy ;)

About the fashion show : The laws of fashion are about to break…. Buckle up and DON’T
COME ALONE

Name: Anna Koljander

Slogan: Be wisely bonkers.

I keep my designs simple, but always with a
little twist or a detail that makes the whole piece special.
I have studied footwear now for almost six years.
A good job for someone who chose to study
shoemaking by accident! My inspiration comes
from my life: it's simple and safe and almost
always fun and full of laughter! I am surrounded
by people who make me be me.

My design philosophy:
I got the inspiration for my collection
from two things: the paintings of
Helene Scherfbeck and knitwear. You won't
see any paintings in my shoes though, the inspiration is
about the delicate feelings that hide behind the pictures.
Knitting has been my passion since I was a little girl.
I have used knitted pieces in my shoes before, but for
this collection I wanted to play with the proportions a
little and see what could be done.

Thoughts about today:
The shoes are almost done! Some of the accessories are
done aswell. I seem to come up with a new idea for something
great every day, who knows what will still emerge from the
depths of my mind!

Thoughts about the future:
To be perfectly honest I can't wait to see my products
on the catwalk. That means this huge project is over
and summer holidays will start!

To readers:
I'll see you in just a few weeks!

Name: Niina Markkanen

Slogan: One makes mistake when being too hasty.

Me as a designer:
I try to think out of the box.

My design philosophy:
I got my inspiration for puzzles and riddles.
In my collection I try to use recyclable materials with new ones. I intend to keep a simple style combined with something unusual. In this case the formations of surface and pockets.There can be something mysterious in clothes and problem solving is a vital part of making the clothes.

How's it going?
At this moment I'm sewing final garments and making last changes.
Thoughts about the future:
It's going to be grazy and hazy, but that's the excitement of this industry.

To readers:
Hang in there, this fashion show is going to be a spectacle!

Designer Profile

Name: Matti Koivula

Slogan: One should never stop daydreaming.

Design philosophy: There are plenty of things already in this world but why so much of it looks the same? I want the world around to be pretty to look at. With my design I want to create surprises, give excitement and pleasure of discovering aesthetics in the every day life.

Today’s thoughts: I've been a bit nervous about the d-day as it's comeing closer, but in general I'm feeling good and thinking, I'll be ready to present my work. The sun starts to be warmer and brighter. That gives me power.
Thoughts about the future: I don't know about the future but I hope it'll be good for me. I don't need too much from the future. I just wish to do what I want and what I know best.

To readers: Make at least one regular day in week for your "Look Good, Feel Good"-day. Enjoy your coffee, take some extra time for choosing your shoes and clothes, look twice in the mirror. I'm sure you'll enjoy and it only takes some 15 minutes more of your time!

See you on the fifth of May!

Name: Vinícius dos Santos

Slogan: the light that hangs on the line dividing the South America.

Design philosophy: If I forget my roots and my culture, I would stop being who I am. Things that exist without culture are empty and unneeded.
In my design I use my culture, my people, my roots and my place, to create shapes and purposes. My design is made of who I am and all the people that made me be somebody, so my design is made for people by people.

Today’s thoughts: I've been thinking about the spring, about this new experience that is coming, I never have being in some spring outside Brazil before, so I’m wondering about the new smells and feelings that will come with this season. Without big worries, trying to live day to day.

Thoughts about the future: My future will always surprise me, I just know that tomorrow everything will be new. And this makes me happy, keeps me alive, because nothing can be better than the things that you will still experience.

To readers: “Creativity is fantasy allied to accomplishment. Accomplishment without fantasy creates bureaucrats. And Bureaucrats determine our unhappiness”.

See you in the fashion show!

Designer profile

Name: Kaika-Tuuli Mäkilä

Slogan: "Only from quality materials you can make quality products."

Since little girl I have always been very interested in fashion and designing. I made my first collection in 2007. Inspirations and ideas to the collection I got from the Paris, where I was studying fashion in 2006. As a designer I am a perfectionist. I am very hard and demanding for myself, and I want that the quality is nothing else than superior. I always reach for perfection, and I don’t want to make compromises. I have found my own unique style that I purposefully follow.

Design philosophy: In this collection I wanted to combine different kind of materials and mix soft and hard together. That’s why you will see lots of metal, chains, leather and covered woolen fabrics tailored in very feminine shapes. I was inspired by queens and duchesses and that mysterious dark feeling of their time.

Today's thoughts: There is so much to do in a so little time, but I think I can make it! Timetable is pretty tight, but luckily I love challenges!

Thoughts about the future: I’m pretty excited. We will have fantastic fashion show!
