Viktor & Rolf Designer Portrait- Stylert.com

March 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Designer duo Viktor & Rolf are famed for their high-concept catwalk shows and extravagant collections, the Dutch designers have taken the fashion world by storm over the last 15 years. The duo s unique style by blending of cool irony and surreal beauty makes them one of the most original designer team in haute couture.
Dutch born Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are fashion's forward-thinking design duo, known for their conceptual fashion shows, clever ideas and chic clothing captured beyond all imagination.  Viktor & Rolf's signature collections are famous for their tailoring and layering and their contemporary shows are full of surreal experiences and sculptural exaggerations. The signature collection has been complemented with menswear, accessories and fragrances.
Viktor Horsting & Rolf Snoeren met each other while studying fashion at the Arnhem Academy of Art and Design in The Netherlands.They began working together upon graduation, relocating to Paris in 1993 to launch their careers. Their first collection 'Hyères' (1993) based on distortion, reconstruction and layering won three prizes at the Salon Europeen des Jeunes Stylistes at the Festival International de Mode et de Photographie. The subsequent presentation of four collections in experimental art spaces led them in 1998 to show their first Haute Couture collection (Spring/Summer 1998). Viktor & Rolf created their first ready-to-wear FW 'Stars and Stripes' in 2000. The menswear collection FW 'Monsieur' was added in 2003, modelled entirely by Viktor & Rolf in a mirrored performance.
The Viktor & Rolf range has since grown worldwide and does include shoes, accessories and eyewear.
