DESIGNER TO KNOW: Pepper and Pistol
Edited by Kirby Marzec
Combining feminine cuts with custom prints are indie designers Silvia Hillmann and Katrin Wiens with their German cult, womenswear line, Pepper and Pistol. With respective backgrounds in fashion design and graphic arts, the designers at Pepper and Pistol have created a line that strictly follow seasonal themes. Pepper and Pistol’s spring 2009 collection, “Babylon,” is a colorful mix of middle eastern head-wraps, beachy shift dresses, long graphic tees, patterned leggings and ruffled tops. “Clowning,” the line’s fall 2009 collection, consists of trapeze print layered tops and asymmetrical dresses, as well as a ringleader bedazzled shirt-dress and clown-face prints.
Pepper and Pistol’s fun, youthful designs are available at a variety of New York boutiques, across the globe and online at I Don’t Like Mondays. Check out Pepper and Pistol here!
