Don't know if you guys are familiar with that label,
but imho it's one of the most interesting ones these
days. Haltbar is a single company from Berlin runs by
Kathleen Koenig since around 2001. Also she used
to do a collaboration with Kostas Murkudis under
the name: HALTBAR MURKUDIS, which is quite
famous.
Some short interview:
How would you describe your customer?
Haltbar: People who have created their own style over the years. People who are self-confident about themselves and their style. People who are conscious about their personality through it. People who want to wear clothes that underline their personality.
How would you describe your creative process?
Its a very conceptual approach. To research, especially in work-wear, and adapt, and redefine pieces for fashion.
How would you define contemporary fashion?
The creation of something that has a contemporary as well as a durable and long-lasting style.

And quite ironic video performance, which says
something about the context of the label ;-)
