M.E.N. - Amsterdam Fashion Week

Strong debut by the new fashion brand M.E.N., a collective by three talented Dutch fashion designers Maartje Janse, Elysanne Schuurman and Nikki Duijst. The name M.E.N. is representing each of the designers' name first letter.

With their collaborative project they have managed to merge all their talents into a promising first collection ‘ES TUT MIR LEID! Ich habe mich verwählt’ . In addition they made sustainable choices by using left-over materials from other designers such as
Ann Demeulemeester, A.F. Vandevorst, Dries van Noten and Walter van Beirendonck.

The show started with a team of rugby players entering the runway and laying out a green 'grass' carpet, representing their quest to take traditional male and female clothing codes out of their context.
