From 1 to 3 July 2009, the Austrian label 'Heartblood', founded 2008 by designer Sabine Haun has presented the glamorous men's and women's streetwear collection spring/summer 2010 under the title 'heartbeat' at the Premium International Fashion Trade Show in Berlin.
The
designer Sabine Haun is inspired by historic themes, music, religion,
literature and publishes the re-interpretations of her cultural
heritage on glam shirts with rock'n'roll appeal; although she describes
her designs as European answer to American design, you will find the
'American freedom' that comes from the highways of this wide land.
Question:
Your collections have much ‘heart’! The spring/summer 2010 collection
is entitled ‚heartbeat’, the basic collection ‘heartwork’. Do you plan
to continue entitling the collections with ‘heart….’? Is this a general
concept of the label Heartblood?
Sabine Haun, designer of Heartblood:
"Each collection has its own feeling that means what I associate by
creating the collection. I will follow this concept for all shirt
collections, because every design is made out of emotions and heart."
Question: What’s the difference between the seasonal and the basic collection?
Sabine Haun, designer of Heartblood: "The
difference of the collections is the delivery date. The basic
collection is pre-order, if the clients want to get it earlier; while
the summer collection will be delivered at usual dates."
Question: You
are designing your own t-shirt collection since 2008. In your press
release you describe your label as European answer to American design.
What signifies American design?
Sabine Haun, designer of Heartblood: "I think, the
signification of American design is the difference, that a pompous show
is more important than value and style. It stands for show and
superficiality.
However, the feeling is getting stronger, that we are slowly inundated
surely of the American fashion market. We have so many good designers
and labels in Europe, who run in risk to go down regarding this new
excitement. I want to work against this trend."
