Even the last day of the fashion week of the prestigious German car brand Mercedes-Benz impressed visitors with five fashion shows. This time Tanja Zorn, Natasa Persuh, Sari Valenci, IVANMAN and Charlie design presented themselves. Fashion lovers will be able to see and buy the JSP, AKULTURA and MÊHLÊ collections at the XYZ Premium Fashion Store, and soon the rest of the Slovenian designer brands presented at MBFWLJ 2016 will also be available.
Tanja Zorn
Fashion designer Tanja Zorn Grželj puts rationalism first only when determining the structure of the collection and functional details. The Dragonfly collection describes Tanja Zorn as a designer, her life, philosophy, longings, joys and desires. Colorful life between water and sky mixed with functional details, contrasts and tactile surfaces.
Natasa Persuh
Natasa Peršuh bets on minimalism. He finds inspiration for his design in the street style of fashionable metropolises, in current cultural and artistic events, in films and history. It is inspired by the fusion of everyday obligations and modern demands for movement and functionality, combined with the principles of high fashion and small-scale uniqueness. The Fall/Winter 2016 collection represents a fusion of high summer and deep winter, a contemporary glamor that is equally at home on the streets and on the red carpet.

Sarah Valencia
Last year's winner of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Award, Sari Valenci, is defined by her unique, daring and socially critical pieces of clothing. She discovered her passion for design at a very early age, and she finds inspiration for it everywhere: on travels and the people she meets along the way. The autumn-winter 2016 collection is an ode to the phenomenon of all suburban styles, which are transformed into street fashion through a subtle color palette of blues and brown tones.
IVANMAN
The IVANMAN brand, based in Berlin, was founded by Croatian designer Ivan Mandžukić with the aim of creating a combination of classic and avant-garde clothing for men. He sees fashion as a social phenomenon, analyzes it through deconstruction, examines its individual parts and reassembles them. The collections, despite the contrast of fabrics, shapes, materials and colors, follow the focus of a perfect cut, minimalism and high wearability.
Charlie design
The prestigious brand of the Croatian fashion scene bets on transforming sculptural forms into unique fashion pieces. The Charlie design brand, founded in 1987 by Loredana and Branko Bahorić, swears by unsurpassed quality. The successful balance of artistic design and wearable architecture celebrates minimalism, a touch of avant-garde and perfect utility. The Fall/Winter 2016 collection tells a magical black and white fashion story that blurs the boundaries between seasons. The mix of materials works both in winter and summer, and the story of white against black creates a unique, timeless fashion fairy tale.
