Reality Studio´s aim is to represent the here and now. German designer Svenja Specht observes her reality by investigating the everyday, exploring her surroundings and the interactions of people through clothing. Traditional clothing with its ancient craft techniques and cultural references heavily influences her work. The interest in genuine craft makes her question fast fashion trends and Mass Production methods. It is the social and cultural aspects of fashion that inspire Specht as a designer. For her to make clothing means to take these aspects and provide a home for bodies which have to adapt in a day, a month, a year, a life to our ever changing conditions and circumstances. Therefore the shapes of the resulting garments are often open to changes and adaptions. The materials are carefully selected and are uniquely composed. The resulting collections appear as a contradictory mix of appealing elegance, feminine strength and a delicate sensitivity with the aim to express: `Do what you love and live now´. I can understand if some of these designs are too far from home, but i like the eclectic mix and her guts to do so....Do what you love and live now...well, that's what she does....You can go your own way......
