A jury of 16 international experts has selected the 7 designers for the public voting of the Triumph International Fashion Award “Dress up for Mozart – Rock up Rococo: Modern Tribute to Rococo”. These 7 Selected designers have mastered both the topic and the challenge to stage luxurious lingerie as an integral part of women’s wear. Until July 20th, 2006 all fashion addicts are invited to the online voting for the best designer on fashionoffice.org/triumph. "The Triumph International Fashion Award is a tough challenge for every designer. It isn't so hard to design beautiful clothes. Especially at this award we have noticed that the development of stylish outfits on a sophisticated theme and a professional presentation are very important. However, not only stylish talent but also corresponding technical knowledge is an essential skill to become the winner. And all 7 designers chosen by the international expert jury prove this." Dr. Karin Sawetz, publisher fashionoffice.org Credit: Tatiana Pogrebnyak/Triumph International Fashion Award 2006 Luxurious Lingerie as an integral part of women’s wear is the basic concept the Triumph International Fashion Award. Tatiana Pogrebnyak has taken this challenge as an opportunity to develop a harmonious concept where the loveliness of the underwear finds its uncompromising continuation in women’s wear. “A bra turns into an undividable part of a blouse, but not as visible underwear. It becomes one of the central design elements, matched with suitable fabrics in colour as in textile, creating a harmonic ensemble. This way the wearer gets a playful look, promising but not vulgar, female attractions being hidden and visible at the same time.” Tatiana Pogrebnyak, born 1984 in Sevastopol, Ukraine, since 1998 living in Israel, studies currently fashion design at the recognized Shenkar College. The models of Pogrebnyak reflect the playful Rococo period of Mozart with all its relation to nature. The flowery top is made of Rococo’s most favoured colour rosé. Tatiana combines it with a green skirt whose jewellery cords run like lifelines - as if they would transport water to the flower rose.

Madame de Pompadour was one of the most influential women in France at the time of Rococo and she also set trends in fashion because of her own fashion style. And music genius Mozart was a fashion freak as well and spent much money on his clothes – thus the perfect partner for Madame de Pompadour. |
