Won hundred, a relatively new fashion brand from Denmark, was founded in 2004 by Nikolaj Nielsen after a long career in the fashion industry eventually inspired him to launch his own distinctive clothing line. After meeting Pernille Schwarz, a likeminded graduate from the renowned Designskolen Kolding, the balance between entrepreneurial and technical skills finally fell into place, and a rewarding collaboration was born.
Won hundred produce elegant ready-to-wear collections ranging from basic t-shirts to tailor-made suits, together with a great range of jeans for men and women (we’ll be writing about these in the near future) for those who may be tiring of ubiquitous skinny Swedish jeans.
Their Spring/Summer 07 collection ventures into the dramatic atmosphere of modern film noir and features masculine elements manipulated into feminine silhouettes. High waist skirts worn together with voluminous jersey and silk shirts, reconstructed trench coats and jackets combined with dark jeans and classic men’s style shirts all combine to make Won Hundred our latest Scandinavian fashion favourites. See below for a selection of images from their current collection.
Your work is amazing. I am an art student at Westside High School in Omaha, Nebraska...and I was wondering if I could have your permission to paint a few of your pictures. I would not sell them..it is just an assignment to create 6-8 images in some sort of medium using a common theme....
I would really appreciate it ..because you have really inspired me...and i could even send you some of them or at least give you pictures of them when I am done.
