The award-winning graduate of the famed Antwerp Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Christian Wijnants launched his namesake label in 2003 and has since showed himself to be both an acclaimed designer and artist.
Characterised by a refined and feminine aesthetic, minimalist boxy cuts feature alongside his signature innovative draping and asymmetric silhouettes for a whimsical appeal. Known for his eye-catching prints, nature-inspired designs and block colours, his use of luxurious fabrics sets his collections apart from his peers on the catwalk.
