We go way back..
After traveling extensively, a close friendship that started 10 years ago brought us, Loredana and Anke, together again. On the other side of the world. In Bali.
Living the island life, we were introduced to a moving world of opportunities and challenges. Of a different lifestyle, freedom and creativity. And inspired by diverse countries and numerous cultures as well, we created a fierce fashion vision. While holding on to Western values and trends, our designs breath out cultural influences in casual and timeless pieces.
Each design is unique..
and tells a story. We believe in exclusive and traditional fabrics. In sophisticated items which show that details matter, in philosophy of colours, and in the strength of every woman to create her own wearable story. With every collection, we try to spread out a certain vibe, life values that women can relate to, will be inspired from and hopefully make them inspire others.
Traditional artisans..
is who we team up with. Their cultural richness and talented hands, inspired by generations and generations of crafting beauty is what we choose for. In the midst of endless rice field views, daily temple offerings and living a true life, every day again they give the very best of themselves to be part of our brand. And your wearable story.

Dit voor de moderne bruid die belang hecht aan persoonlijkheid en authenticityit.
Laurence studeerde in 2006 af als kunsthistorica aan de universiteit van Gent. Nadien startte ze een opleiding modeontwerp in Brussel. Na enkele jaren in het commerciële circuit van de mode-industrie kon ze aan de slag in het atelier van Kaat Tilley. Zij deed haar dromen.
Deze droom wordt in 2012 werkelijkheid met de opening van een eigen couturesalon annex boutique. Met Ayanne gaan we terug naar een tijd waarin eleven maten met precisie werden opgemeten en eleven ideeën en visies kwalitatief werden uitgevoerd. “Zowel het fragiele als het sensuale, de kracht versus de kwetsbaarheid verenigen en verweven.”

Bernadette AntwerpInfo
BERNADETTE is the Antwerp-based fashion label from creative mom-and-daughter duo Bernadette and Charlotte de Geyter.

With an extensive archive of patterns and florals, they are more than a fashion label. It’s a lifestyle filled with joy, optimism, and striking florals to brighten up every occasion of your day.
As a brand born of intergenerational collaboration, Bernadette — a former buyer for Ralph Lauren and more — is an expert on forms that work for women of all ages. Being a homeware and interior enthusiast, Bernadette is a chameleon that adapts to every space individually. From American porches with rattan chairs to the inviting coziness of the English cottage. The fusion of nonchalance and elegance depicts her style of working.
Artistic expression is central to the brand. BERNADETTE’s unique botanical motifs — a hallmark described by British Vogue as “florals with a fizz” — are all hand-drawn by Charlotte, who studied at Antwerp’s Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Next to signature prints, Charlotte plays with couture-like shapes and sculpted volumes with its signature knots, bows, and romantic rosettes.

Terre Bleue history
The Belgian label Terre Bleue was established in 2002 and is part of the company Duror/Two Faces, a flourishing family company runned by Dirk Perquy who represents the third generation. Recently his son Peter joined the company so that the tradition is assured. The roots of Terre Bleue go back to 1938. Maurice Perqui, his wife and his brother Jozef established the Perquy-Braet company. It was a wholesale in textile products; especially caps, scarves and stockings. A strong brand demands its own boutique that reflects the total image of the collection. That’s why Terre Bleue opened its first concept store in Ghent in 2004. More boutiques would follow soon. The former kids collection CF Company, that was the inspiration for the Terre Bleue womens collection, was renamed Terre Bleue in 2008.
Since the summer of 2009 the Terre Bleue universe expanded with its own men’s collection. Since then Terre Bleue has become a real family brand.The number of boutiques is growing and the gamma is always enlarging. To establish a total look, Terre Bleue launched a women and kids shoe collection in 2010 that is intensively connected with the clothing collection. With the Spring collection of 2012, the boutique in Knokke was the first to be transformed into a new shopping concept. Shortly after that, the 12th Terre Bleue boutique opened its doors in Nieuwpoort; a family store that is designed according to the new concept.In the same year the brand also celebrated its 10th birthday! Grow continues in 2013.

Joanne Vanden Avenne
Joanne Vanden AvenneInfo
After graduating from L’Institut Supérieur des Arts Appliqués in Paris in 2008, Joanne Vanden Avenne quickly realized she wanted to launch her own clothing line. The Belgian designer, who presented her first collection at Tranoï in March 2010, has an innate sense of beauty, style and balance. Judging there was no need to work for another fashion house, she trusted her gut feeling and rose up to the challenge. Her collections seem instinctive and direct, addressing women who juggle the demands of daily life without renouncing their femininity.
Resolutely contemporary and chic, Joanne Vanden Avenne’s clothes are tactile, refined and elegant. Combining structure with fluidity, her taste focuses on simple cuts and pure shapes, making her garments stylish and timeless. Not overtly preoccupied with trends, Vanden Avenne manages to integrate diverse influences within her work, from Japanese origami to American architecture. If her mathematical eye pushes towards geometrical effects and precise volumes, she also favors asymmetry and loose draping, which she uses on a regular basis. Looking for fresh contrasts and innovative finishes, she crafts desirable separates, appealing to an ageless woman who understands her values.
Despite being clearly urban, the designer’s collections often reference nature and its peaceful spirit. Aggression is absent from Vanden Avenne’s world. A quiet confidence defines the woman who wears her clothes. Green pastures, clear skies and open horizons are part of the designer’s vocabulary, bringing a vital energy to her brand. Her dynamic lines are coupled with a sensual and delicate approach. Her clothes can be dreamy, too, but they’re always substantial. Designed and produced in Belgium, they are carried by reputable, high-end stores, whether they be Belgian or international.

COUTURE
In elk van haar creaties streeft de ontwerpster naar tijdloze soberheid met een elegante toets. De melancholische sfeer rond de vorige eeuwwisseling en de modernistische architectuur- en kunstbeweging uit de jaren ’20 en ’30 vormen haar voornaamste inspiratiebronnen.
HOE GAAT HET TE WERK?
Eerst wordt een persoonlijk ontwerp volledig op maat in baalkatoen uitgewerkt, nadien volgen enkele doorpassen in de gekozen stof met telkens kleine meetcorrecties. Zo groeit het kledingstuk naar haar definitieve vorm als een ‘tweede huid’ rondom het lichaam…

COUTURE CRAFTSMANSHIP – HANDMADE & UNIQUE
WHAT CAN YOU GO TO ZIZA COUTURE FOR?
Bridal Dresses
Having your wedding dress made to measure is a very special, unique and strong process to really come to a dress that fully accentuates your beauty.
Party Dresses
You can come to Ziza Couture for a beautiful piece unique that matches who you are. A perfect fit and the right cut offers so many possibilities for every body.
CUSTOMIZED TRAINING
No ordinary sewing lessons, but learn to sew for yourself tailor-made. You can find the full curriculum at the bottom of this site.
HOW DOES CUSTOMIZATION WORK?
If you would like to have something custom made, we will make an appointment. We discuss what you would feel good about and which direction the design may take.
Then we look at how many passes will be needed. Depending on the design, I test the dress first, which ensures a perfect fit and cut.
In order to be able to work uniquely for everyone, I don’t have a stock of fabrics, but together we look for the most suitable materials.
Do you have any questions or would you like a first idea of the prices before you come by, send me a message or just give me a call.
ABOUT FASHION DESIGNER LINA
.
Making people beautiful is my mission 😉
When I see someone, I immediately think in dresses, fabrics, colors. I don’t know myself differently, always looking for beauty in everyone and everything. Many thanks to my little golden fingers, that I can fulfill this job in this way.
For more than 10 years I have specialized in making and designing exclusive tailor-made clothing. I was educated with a master’s degree in fashion design, pattern drawing and haute couture embroidery.
ABOUT CUSTOMIZATION
“Customization is a process, an adventure. As a fashion designer, I listen and look, together we look for the right materials, fit and style. No ready-made dress code, but a unique piece that grows around you.
Customization has its price tag. But it has such beautiful and strong advantages: through customization, many more people can wear what they really dream of. Many pieces of clothing, whatever your figure, often don’t fit in ready-to-wear, even if you’d like to. Something that’s tailored is way more flattering anyway, whichever cut you prefer, simply because it fits. I often hear people say to me in the studio ‘I’ve dreamed of being long-dressed for so long, but I really didn’t think I had the figure for that’ or ‘I didn’t know that my figure looks so much better a proper cut’. Every body is so different and customization has so much to offer.
In the past years I have already drawn patterns and made and adapted designs for countless bodies. Accentuate what makes someone beautiful, envelop what feels vulnerable, look and listen. It has now become my specialization.
I don’t make collections, I like to work around a person. I mainly use the knowledge I gained with my master’s degree in fashion design to come up with original and unique designs that suit the customer, in addition to custom work.
A new vision on clothing, supportive in who we are, that’s what I’m going for.” lina

Nuage d’Automne
Nuage d’AutomneInfo
Thu Van Nguyen
clothing designer
It was in 2006 that Thu-Van Nguyen created the brand Nuage d’Automne (translation of Thu-Van in Vietnamese). This Eurasian born in Perpignan (France) has lived in Belgium since the age of 6.
Trained as a costume designer and decorator, she came to styling in a natural way as if to express through Fashion the mixture of cultures and origins of which she is the fruit.
In her workshop in La Hulpe, she creates medium and high-end ready-to-wear for men and women, in unique pieces, limited series and made-to-measure.
In an ethnic style, Nuage d’Automne bears witness to the meeting between the East and the West, the ancient and the modern.
In addition to using natural materials (silk, wool, linen or cotton) as well as vegetable dyes for certain ranges, particular attention is paid to the quality of the finishes.
The stage costume complements its work through spectacular outfits and costumes for musicians, dancers or actors.
Creativity, know-how and experience at the service of Fashion.
She stands out with an approach to Fashion that is more artistic than “trendy” by creating unexpected mixes. What makes these clothes exceptional, sometimes close to a work of art.
In an unconventional style with minimalist cuts, it combines elegance with a mixture of cultures and eras, while promoting craftsmanship and know-how.
