ASTER & LIZE
Apart from sharing their love for each other, actress Lize Feryn and TV-presenter Aster Nzeyimana also share their wardrobe. It inspired them to create their own fashion brand Melange. A brand that sprouts from the characteristic personal style of the couple. Melange is a sign of the times and a reflection of a diverse world.
The first capsule collection -only available in their pop up store- was launched in February, and immediately made clear what the brand is all about: effortlessly elegant silhouettes where male and female shapes go hand in hand. The second collection, launching alongside the online store, builds on that, while adding some new pieces that clearly remain akin to the original designs.
Essential in its conception, Melange breaks the lines of the classic gender divide. Who wears what is off-topic and undefined. Feeling great in clothing is the only thing that matters. Shopping genderlessly shouldn't have to be a conscious choice: it is the freedom of not having to make a choice between men’s or women’s clothing.
DESIGNED IN BELGIUM, MADE IN EUROPE
Eye for detail is key. Every design boasts a tiny logo-shaped piece of jewellery: a hand-sewn, golden touch. The buttons are also handmade out of natural stone.
And indeed, the iconic body jewel was crafted by hand as well. Pearl after pearl the shoulder piece was brought to life.
It goes without saying that, apart from the fabrics, the design and production has sustainability close at heart. The prototypes are made in Belgium, the clothes in Europe. All of the fabrics are carefully selected from Italian and Greek manufacturers.
If you see something you like - go for it. Melange doesn’t go with the seasons. Designing clothing is a long and intense process. A new collection drops whenever it is ready - next year, next decade, or maybe never. Who's to say?
Love.
