Actress Wilma Elles revealed as the New Face of Anastasja Trajkovska
The exclusive haute couture label, Anastasja Trajkovska, welcomes the one and only supermodel and actress Wilma Elles as the brand’s Face in order to represent their new limited collection celebrating Anastasja Trajkovksa's Ten Year Anniversary. The German beauty was photographed on location at the Zurich Airport, showing off the first collection of flowing evening gowns and sophisticated business suits. A backdrop of sleek jets and open skies inferred a sense of freedom, while the linear runways and sharp silhouettes offered a striking contrast to the feminine fabrics and wind-caught tresses of Miss Elles.
Based near the border of Liechtenstein and Switzerland, the fashion house has a prestigious European origin combining refined Austrian designs with exquisitely selected Italian and French fabrics, finished off with an elegant Balkan twist. Anastasja Trajkovska is a pro in the high-end, luxury market where they have been dressing the incredibly chic but oh-so-private set for a decade. Anastasja Trajkovska designs are frequently seen gracing international society hot-spots from the slopes of St. Moritz and Kitzbühel to the yachts of Monaco and Miami. They even make an appearance on the red carpet at Cannes.
The creation and development of the brand image into a more public one had been in the mind of the designer ever since her early success, but correct timing and the right ambassador were the necessary crucial components. Therefore she waited - and not for nothing! Wilma Elles embodies the ideals of a cosmopolitan lifestyle and was Anastasja’s unreserved first choice. Wilma was delighted to be invited.
The feeling of empowerment and graciousness is a common theme not just among women themselves, but also in the new collection. As per Anastasja's explanations, the collection is dedicated to the elegant cosmopolitan who lives life without any of the imposed limits. The designs can be characterized by an opulence mixed together with the confidence of spirit, as they embody a grandeur that desires to be truly seen and worn. Wilma, being an obvious expert in couture, concurs that the dresses have the potential to turn a regular moment into a life-changing one, as they are elegant with a little extra. Not being overdone is the most difficult balance to find.
Originally the Anastasja Trajkovska brand was founded in 2011 by Anastasja and Elizabeta Trajkovska, sisters and partners, with their passion for a polished aesthetic and uncompromising attention to quality and detail. The entire design process from initial sketches and fabric sourcing to the hand sewing and personal tailoring in the ateliers is a family business. The Anniversary Collection has already been made available now and can be viewed and ordered from the Anastasja Trajkovska boutique in Feldkirch. Made-to-measure pieces are available by appointment with an exclusive service where clients can tailor every detail from the fabric to the buttons.
