Sandrina Fasoli who graduated in 2004 from the École nationale des Arts visuels de la Cambre (Fashion Design section), is a young designer who has a very special view of fashion. From the beginning of her studies and during her first work placement experiences at Annemie Verbeeke (1999) and Martin Margiela (2000) in particular, Sandrina Fasoli has taken a special interest in women and the attitudes that they inspire.
Her approach, which is both creative and visual, enables her to explore the world of women by experimenting with different materials, by changing the function of clothes and boldly using the concept of pretence. Moreover, it was with that theme, a combination of distorting mirror effects and a certain mischievous lightness, that she won the “Female Collection” Grand Prix at the International Festival of Fashion Arts at Hyères, in 2003, with her collection “Les Tricheuses”.
The designer built on that professional recognition by embarking in 2004 on a spiral of creativity which led her to sign personally a small collection for the ready-to-wear fashion chain 1.2.3 (winter 2004), to collaborate on the book of the 175 years of the famous Belgian leather craftsman Delvaux (July 2004) and to participate in various events such as the “MODO BRUXELLAE” parade and the Saint-Etienne biennial international design festival. 2005 marked the “birth” of Sandrina as a professional designer.
The collections created between 2000 and 2004 (Sorry Mum, Lightmare, UNDERwearOUTdoor, Les Tricheuses and Slow Degrees) were training projects which helped to shape the designer’s world. Today, is the start of a new era. With, as ever, the support of Michael Marson, a designer who also trained at La Cambre, Sandrina is putting the final touches to her first major collection which will be unveiled in Paris. A collection designed by Sandrina and Michael which will be based on the favourite themes of the two designers: femininity, lightness, fantasy and subtle eroticism.
