Unlike many designers, Schneider doesn't pluck his canvas from a bolt in a factory. He designs each fabric himself. "I spend half of my time with the textile and half with the silhouette," he says. "When your textile is strong, you don't have to invent trousers with three legs."
In 1994 German born Stephan Schneider graduated top of his class from the famous Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. From the basis of his final collection Schneider was awarded a stand during Paris fashion week. He received several orders and set his business up immediately. Today Stephan Schneider currently has more than 70 points of sale worldwide, his biggest market being Japan.
Stephan Schneider uses its own production facilities in Belgian factories, where pieces are cut by hand and time can be spent on the finest finishing.
Designer and Professor Stephan Schneider also currently teaches at Universität der Künste, Berlin, who’s taken over for the esteemed British designer and professor Vivienne Westwood at the institution.
