AND BEYOND SERIES
Every And Beyond Series tells a story. And Beyond makes designs that are worthwile and that have meaning. The stories have lead to the creation of a series of fashion items, with each series focusing on a specific product.
SERIES I
The Droste effect - a strange loop -
In the first series for autumn | winter 1112 the main character is the scarf. It is the ideal canvas for one of the most important aspects of And Beyond; our passion for pattern design. This series of luxurious scarves has been designed with the Droste effect as our main inspiration.
SERIES II
Patched
In this second series for spring | summer 12 the main character is again the scarf. Five large luxurious scarves have been designed with the tradition of patchwork as a main inspiration. Based on traditional structures that were used to construct a patchwork composition, the designs show a contemporary take on a classic craft.
