Mattia van Severen - beginning

The guest of the latest episode of one.voice is Belgian fashion designer Mattia Van Severen.

Coming from a family of designers, Mattia spent years collaborating with and advising international fashion houses before founding his own label.

In this episode, we talk about the identity of his brand, how his collections come to life, and the sources of inspiration behind his work — including the visual arts and artists such as Gordon Matta-Clark and Olafur Eliasson.

We also discuss the challenges of building a young fashion label: What does it take to establish a new brand? What makes a location the right one? And, perhaps most importantly, how do to sell clothing when it’s 40 degrees outside?

The conversation is in English.
