RICHERT BEIL CELEBRATES ITS’ 10TH ANNIVERSARY DURING BFW WITH AW24 COLLECTION “NACHLASS”

Berlin-based design conductors Jale Richert and Michele Beil electrify Berlin Fashion Week as they celebrate a remarkable decade of creativity. The AW24 Runway collection, named NACHLASS, marks the triumphant 10th anniversary of RICHERT BEIL at Westend Office.

Within the futuristic location on February 6th, RICHERT BEIL hosted a noteworthy gathering of around 500 guests, including household names such as Stefanie Giesinger and Jerry Hofmann, among other shining personalities.

With ‘NACHLASS,’ Jale Richert and Michele Beil pay homage to the rich heritage of traditional German fashion craftmanship. In this captivating collection RICHERT BEIL takes a nostalgic renaissance through our grandmother’s wardrobe, reflecting on the fashion heritage within Germany, inspired by the sensibilities handed down to them from their own families and legacy they will leave behind in the years to come. The visionary designers deconstruct their wardrobe into conceptual masterpieces, subverting familiar silhouettes and styles with audacious materials and avant-garde design techniques.

The show radiates an aura of inclusivity, diversity, and sustainability, featuring models of various ages, including elderly women, diverse genders, a spectrum of body types, and several ethnicities, all adorned in innovative designs and exhilaratingly bold silhouettes.

Unveiling a total of 18 looks, the runway spectacle unfolds a mesmerizing mix of precision tailoring, presenting both modest yet sophisticated ensembles and deconstructed twin sets, cardigans, smocks, and other stylistic marvels. Conceptually, the grandmother’s look emerges as a harmonious fusion of personal style, comfort, and the influences of the bygone eras which has gracefully traversed—a unique and heartwarming fashion statement that encapsulates her remarkable life journey.

Furthermore, RICHERT BEIL notably emphasizes sustainability, showcasing thoughtfully upcycled materials. A show-stopping gown, crafted from partly recycled saddles, takes center stage accompanied by accessories repurposed from vintage watch cases and bag handles. Styles inspired by historical underwear add a touch of nostalgia and refinement. The incorporation of crystal jewelry not only enhances the collection’s uniqueness but also carries a meaningful connection when adorned by the younger generation, honoring traditions of the past.

In its entirety, the AW24 RICHERT BEIL collection serves as a luminous beacon, inspiring the fashion industry to stride boldly towards a future marked by profound inclusivity and unwavering sustainability.
