Boris Bidjan Saberi is a German-Persian Avant-Garde Streetwear designer, based in Barcelona. Born in Munich on September 11, 1978 to a German mother and a Persian father. “These biographical factors play a fundamental role in Boris’s formation: they combine dual systems such as West/Middle East traditions and form/formless garments with the designer’s passion for numerology”. Both parents worked in the fashion industry, maintaining a fashion label as a family business. As a result, Saberi was introduced to the world of fashion at a very early stage of his life which shaped his career path: studying fashion design in Barcelona, graduating in 2006. While Boris Bidjan Saberi had started his first leather accessory line while still in university, his eponymous label Boris Bidjan Saberi was launched after his graduation in 2007.

Julius
Oversized Fashion from Tokyo
The label “Julius” was founded in Tokyo in 2001 by Tatsuro Horikawa as a means of presenting film projects, the Julius label eventually developed its clothing line in 2004. Nevertheless, the original art idea remained and is now reflected, for example, in dark colors. Using black and grey as the main components of every collection – symbols of madness and pain, respectively – the label centers around Horikawa’s love of art and architecture, which were integral to the brand’s initial formation as an art project. The oversized cuts of the clothes and accessories show a contemporary bohemian style.
