Malene Birger: classic fashion with a cool edge

Danish designer Malene Birger continues to enthral the fashion world as stars such as supermodel Elle Macpherson and actress Amanda Seyfried cannot get enough of her on-trend yet timeless designs.

From a pair of boyfriend jeans and a simple T-shirt to a delicate silk dress, the Birger brand manages to provide women with both the necessities and the luxuries of fashion, all the while remaining true to the label’s sleek and sophisticated style.

With inspirations that include men’s tailoring and art deco, the result is a stunning clash of soft slouch, powerful prints and contemporary cuts. What Berger manages to do so well, and what has truly become the fashion house’s trademark, is to add a creative edge to a traditional article of clothing.

The iconic white shirt is made sleeveless with a loose fit and black insert either side, keeping it chic yet edgy. A blazer is created using silk and presented in a bold blue shade with an eye-catching anchor pattern and a feminine yet structured vest shape.

As a high-end designer label, worn by the stars and well respected in the fashion industry, you would be correct in presuming prices aren’t cheap, but they are most certainly reasonable. When you buy a By Malene Birger piece product you know you have a garment for life; these items are stunning pieces you will soon learn you simply cannot live without.

Stores are dotted all over the world from Japan to Portugal and Australia to the UK, but the website is easy to use, stunning to look at and offers all the information you need to purchase that fabulous pair of fuchsia pumps or bright yellow harem pants.
