An Eksempel: The Dark Silhouette

Eksempel (Danish word for Example) is the brainchild of designer Pernille Winther who graduated from the aknowledged Danish School "Danmarks Designskole" in 2000. Pernille Winther has become renowned for her extraordinary turn of pattern and cut, combined with a poetic sense of fabric and silhouette, which proposes a modern way to visualize the female body.

Eksempel's Autumn Winter 2009 Collection is well drawn dark silhouette in the hues of dark ink, plum and black scattered by electric blue, flamboyant orange and a rosy tartan. This collection works closer to the body combining the close cut with oversized elements. The attention is drawn to the surrounding space of shoulders and elbows, shaping details and clearly exaggerating volumes. Silk dresses vary between baloons and more edgy shapes, all with an opulent fullness. Narrow and graphic cut pants lengthen the silhouette and make it sexy and chic. The materials include coated techno fabrics, stretched wools, deilcious silk with chinese screen prints and soft cotton. Mat versus shiny sets the tone in this urban and contemporary winter collection.
