DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER
With her expressive models in the ranges of clothing, shoes and accessories, the German designer DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER has made it to the top of the international designers. She still remains loyal to her company's hometown by having one shop in Mannheim and now operates more than 600 Dorothee SCHUHMACHER stores worldwide. Her recipe for success is her uncomplicated and self-confident fashion.
Feminine and clear fashion
DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER's career began with an apprenticeship in Duesseldorf and an internship in Italy. She also drew inspiration from France and launched her SCHUMACHER label in 1989. Her first creations were high quality tops, which were gradually followed by other clothing and eventually bags, belts, shoes and jewelry were added to her creations. A few years after the foundation she expanded to Italy. Today, her fashion is in demand worldwide and is sold in major fashion houses in Dubai, New York and Tokyo, among others.
DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER's light elegance as an insider tip
A few years ago, DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER's fashion was considered the insider tip in the USA when it came to sophisticated designer fashion from abroad. But at the latest since Schuhmacher outfitted Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway in the film “The Devil Wears Prada”, the German designer has firmly joined the ranks of fashion greats with worldwide name recognition. Her collections themselves are straightforward and often simple and plain. Here DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER likes to use strong, sometimes loud colors, which in combination with innovative cuts cause a sensation. Strikingly patterned prints also find their way into her creations as eye-catchers. Despite the simplicity and nearly conservative designs of her fashion, DOROTHEE SCHUMACHER still always manages to create and convey a feminine touch. According to Schuhmacher, a woman's true strength lies in her femininity and this must be emphasized with clothing and accessories. Accordingly, her fashion is made for confident women who like to emphasize their femininity with clean lines.
