Marloes completed her master year at the Fashion Institute Arnhem in 2009 and presented her collection, ‘Tolinger” during the Paris and Amsterdam International Fashion Week. This gave her the drive and motivation to continue her work as a designer.
As a designer Marloes have always been interested in old an traditional patterns. It always claims a roll in her collections, in shape, material en craft. That is why she is always looking for old tailoring and functionality in clothing.
The collections was made from wool, cotton, leather and silk. We saw knitting and a lot of embroidery. Natural colours like browns, beige, creme and whites where the main colours. Blue was the only colour accent that was used. The collection is based on old patterns patterns.
A collection that brings the past into the present.
Before Amsterdam International Fashion Week started Fesjon got the opportunity to interview Marloes.

The collection is handmade form unexpected handmade materials (pieces of embroidery) the shapes she just for here collection made the collection very futuristic where tradition and humor are key. The colours of the collection are mostly earth tones, blacks and blues. Linda is seeing here collection as a inspiration for a more wearable collection.
