Introducing Schepperheyn
A contemporary Unisex fashion brand specialised in creating high quality products with a focus on detail and material uniqueness.
Prints and functional details in combination with strong shapes are at the core of the brand’s spirit. It‘s a reconstruction of classical forms by providing them with new contexts and modern proportions, juxtapositioning the rough and refined. We only use carefully selected high-quality fabrics and manufacture our pieces entirely in Germany.
This season, Schepperheyn collaborates with Monty Python, to pay tribute to their 50‘s anniversary. Original prints from their iconic video How not to be seen are combined with the clean design signature of Schepperheyn. The collection pieces are inspired by Monty Python‘s humorous imagery and emphasise sustainability, craftsmanship and genderless aesthetics.The label explores the topic of coexistence of being or not being seen in the collection details and finishings. The extraordinary cuff closure solutions and partially hidden pockets in several execution serve not only to represent the inspiration for the collection but also to keep up Schepperheyn‘s love and attention for extraordinary elements.
Schepperheyn continues to spread genderless vibes within the new Unisex collection, merging tailoring with work-and street-wear. Checked and padded materials are combined with fabrics such as cotton shirting, organic jerseys, recycled denim and coated textiles. The sharp colour palette includes brick red, pink, black, navy, egg shell and green Cheetah. Knitted wool and printed silk Scarfs, mini wallets and multi-loop belts complete the collection range. All products are designed and produced in Germany.
