The daughter of a Danish supermodel and the founder of French fashionhouse Emmanuelle Khan, Vanessa Bruno started her own line in 1996 aged just 24. Stars like Nicole Kidman and Charlotte Gainsbourg subscribe to her brand of sophisticated, clever tailoring - and we can't get enough of her beautifully draped dresses in luxurious wools and silks.

Sonia Rykiel
When Sonia Rykiel opened her first boutique on Paris' artistic Left Bank in 1968, she gained swift recognition for her soft sweaters and inside-out seams that were seen as a liberated antithesis to strict '50s tailoring. Her signature knits brought the label instant success and, alongside divine day and evening dresses, remain the perfect pieces to inject a dash of Parisian chic to your look.
Meil Leur Ami
Fabien Larchez
Larchez, above, uses his inside fashion connections (he worked in the biz as designer, PR and merchandising director for 20 years before launching Meilleur Ami) to source the finest fabrics for his scarves, which are fabricated in a small textile atelier in the outskirts of Paris. They’re all produced in limited series (3-6 scarves per fabric) and come in a smorgasbord of patterns and textures to suit every climate and occasion (silk, cotton and linen for summer, cashmere, wool and even leather for winter).
Larchez applied the same philosophy of function and style to the second half of his collection: the Meilleur Ami bag. Made in the Picardie region of France by a textile factory that supplies to the French army, the bag is a godsend, plain and simple. Ample enough to hold a weekend’s worth of stuff, classy enough to take to a meeting, and light enough to sling around your neck for a day of biking around Paris, it’s the modern man’s secret weapon to practical chic. Plus it can be worn three ways: by hand, across the chest or on the shoulder

Jeanette Nørlund
Jeanette Nørlund
Smykkedesigner
Jeanette Nørlund laver enkle, glamourøse smykker.
Stilen er enkel og materialerne taler for sig selv. Alle smykker er udført i hånden og det er filosofien bag Jeanette Nørlund's smykkedesign. Inspirationen kommer fra 1960'ernes grafiske former og 1970'ernes glamour og luksus hippie stil. Jeanette arbejder udfra konceptet "less is more" og hendes store "passion" er vielsesringe.
S.N.S Herning
I 1931 blev den første trøje strikket på maskine, og derved var den virksomhed, som vi nu kender som S.N.S. grundlagt i Herning. I 1961 begyndte virksomheden at strikke sømandstrøjerne på Stoll strikkemaskine, og den dag i dag er det stadigvæk de gamle maskiner, man strikker på.
En sømand elsker havets blå og bølgernes brus, men sandelig også den traditionelle sømandstrøje, som siden 1931 er blevet fremstillet hos S.N.S. i Herning.
I dag er den velkendte sømandstrøje ikke kun værdsat af søens folk. Mange andre har gennem årene taget den til sig. I 1970’erne var det den revolutionære ungdom, der brugte den til at vise sympati med arbejderklassen. I dag er sømandstrøjen nærmest en ”kult”. Flere store modebutikker i London, Paris, Milano og Tokyo har taget den populære trøje til sig, og det japanske modefirma Comme des Garçons har også fået øjnene op for trøjens kvaliteter og indgået samarbejde med virksomheden.
