Only a few fashion houses anywhere in the world can look back on a hundred-year family tradition. The only Swiss fashion company represented at Paris Fashion Week, Akris stands out for its clear line, tangible fabric innovations and surprising themes. Akris cultivates a culture of sensual minimalism. Its timelessly modern designs emerge from the dialogue of Creative Director Albert Kriemler with art and architecture, with photographers and filmmakers. Thanks to his pronounced sensitivity for materials, cut and colour, even unusual creations appear entirely natural. The exhibition presents the worlds of inspiration behind this internationally active fashion house from St. Gallen and offers insight into the demanding craft and technical processes that lie behind its collections.
