Winnie mischka aoki biography death

You started your label in after becoming frustrated at not being able to find the right clothes for your own daughter, Mischka. Did you have a background in fashion? I actually never took a fashion-design course however I have loved fashion all my life, and always appreciated the intricate details and craftsmanship in couture fashion.

The freedom to create something individually unique, exploring different techniques, processes and fabrics creating something beautiful is of the most importance to me. Those who buy Mischka Aoki know they are buying a beautifully created, meticulously crafted, one-of-a-kind piece of exceptional quality. Last year we designed a lavish, one-of-a-kind dress adorned with genuine karat gold flowers and hundreds of Swarovski crystals.

This dress, being the couture piece that it is, perfectly blending both beauty and elegance, was designed for those yearning for the ultimate in luxury.

The bodice is made from gold metallic leatherette, which had been machine laser cut with a specific pattern, and embellished with 3D flower applique, which had to go through four different processes that takes days to make each; every single flower had to be done one by one, by hand. When the client contacts us the first time, they normally have an idea in mind; we provide advice to refine these ideas into an actual creation.

This process alone can take days to weeks. We discuss every single detail, from the fabric and colour options to the embellishment that we would apply to the dress. Creating these dresses requires an artistic eye for fine detailing and skilful technique.
