The pureBERLIN show was all about real people and everyday style. The energy of the
models was thrilling to watch on the runway as everyday people took to the catwalk. Each
model was a representation of the streets of Berlin. It was fun fashion, pure fashion for
Spring 2009.
“We concentrate on our few favorite items: Wearable everyday clothing. We create classics
that suit any kind of moment... The qualities of our fabrics belong to the best there are on the
market, all in 100% cotton. The colors are muted, sometimes washed out to create a used-
look. Piece-dyeing and details show how carefully everything is designed... Plus all our
pieces are biologically certified through the Ökotex Stabdard 100 seal,” confirmed Designer
Annabella Mandeng (pictured left) taking a bow after the show with her friend Jesko Klatt

If the editorial team at FashionQandA.com had to wake-up to the
designs of Strenesse Blue, it would be our morning pleasure. The
Spring 2009 collection of Strenesse Blue kicked-off the start of day
three of Fashion Week Berlin. The Strenesse brand was launched in
1969 and has several lines spearheaded by designer Gabrielle
Strehle. Strenesse Blue was launched in 1993. The vast majority of
production for the brand is based in Europe, with fabrics primarily
manufactured in Italy. An international brand, Germany and Germany-
speaking countries are the largest market for the Strenesse brand.
The company states, “This is a line that matches Berlin perfectly;
frivolous, amusing and at the same time profound.” At FashionQandA.
com, we believe profound fashion accurately states the designs that
hit the runway for Spring. There were looks for every Spring/Summer
occasion, including colorful suits that work well for the office, airy and
light full length dresses and playful, flirty separates. Yellow and
purplish hues are still as much in play in 2009 as they are this
season, as well as the skinny slim belt trend.
