W A L D M A N N is a designer womenswear label focusing on the balance of sharp tailoring and sculptural draping, with strong attention to textiles and design development. Driven by inspired narratives and a reductionist sense of luxury, conceptually based themes are translated into ready-to-wear garments that feature engineered details, hand finishings and modern silhouettes.
The label is designed by Elle Waldmann, who worked as an apprentice at the Alexander McQueen Couture studio and earned her masters degree from the London College of Fashion. American by origin, Elle designed for luxury and contemporary clients and studios across the US, Europe and Asia before launching her eponymous label.
Interested in the conversation between traditional artisan craft and modern technologies, the label brings precision attention to textiles, construction and detailed couture methods to ready-to-wear.
