eVe presents: Original Style x adidas Originals

On a cold evening in November we invited our eVerette Tüla aka “Youthletter” to join us for another women-only production. This time we were asked by adidas Originals and our eVerette Michal aka “Whatever we like” to define & style one original outfit to go along with the release of their new online platform entitled “news for original girls”, run by our close friend Palina Rojinski.

Preview: SIX DEGREES x SEBAGO

Five identities. One brand. And now, just six steps away. What we showed you last summer as “Project Unknown”, is now not that much of a secret anymore!

Mdot from booji spoke to us last Winter about this upcoming project, and it didn’t take much hesitation to step on board. Together with Sandrinette from Paris’s Color Me Goood (and eVe of course) and Hana May from New York based hearty magazine we formed The Six Degrees collective. Six degrees of separation is based on the idea that everyone is connected an average of six steps away. Meaning: though far apart, we are all linked by our passion & drive, we are separated, yet always connected.

Preview: Sport & Street’s Harbour 1 at Bread & Butter W2012

Ahoy Admirals! It’s time to pull out your compasses and head to Tempelhof again, for a good portion of business and beautiful people. We are more than exited to present this seasons Sport & Street special at the upcoming Bread & Butter in January: Harbour 1!

Throwing out your anchor at Harbour 1, you will be able to check out the newest Sport & Street cargo: the D.O.C.K. area, a fantastic container project, will be presented for the first time! D.O.C.K. – Department of Contemporary Keynotes- reflects the new niche division of a powerful selection of premium grown-up street wear labels, image-captains, self-ruling designers and market-leading brands showing their peak collections. The blend of their strongest beliefs and chief all-round qualities are essence keynotes of this contemporary catch.

Another highlight will definitely be the Amateur Magazine art exhibition, located at Harbour 1’s showrooms at position S 6.1. Michal made sure that this was going to be there, so be sure to check it out!

Sport & Street has also collaborated with cult brand Starter, bringing back the classic jackets we all know from our childhoods. At BREAD & BUTTER Starter will present the European launch of its Black label for 2012. To mark its debut in Berlin there are 111 limited STARTER x S&S SEA EAGLES sets, consisting of a retro satin jacket and a snap-back cap. Europe distributor Peter Lee says: “It’s fantastic to be re-launching this iconic brand at Bread & Butter. We are so excited about the collaboration with SPORT & STREET and the fact that our brand is getting such a top billing.” S&S Product Manager Joey added: “When I was a teenager that was the only jacket I wanted to wear. We are delighted to have been involved in the first official reproduction.”

Pictures of product shots & team we’re made by Queen Bucarest.


Each 111 Starter Kits will come in an exclusive customized sailor bag, by our eVerette and all-time favourite artist Conradi, already the sneak-peak looks amazing!

The Harbour 1 artwork, was designed by the amazing Amsterdam based artist Stefan Glerum- big up to him for doing such an awesome team portrait!

eVe Presents: Interview with Blanda Eggenschwiler

Blanda Eggenschwiler describes herself as curious, driven and never satisfied. From the outside, she seems to be a talented, beautiful young woman, who moved from snobby Switzerland’s to the mother-city of free-thinking artists to conquer the world. After graduating at SVA (School of Visual Arts) in New York, she immediately started working as an Art Director at The New York Times; quite remarkable as we find!

In September, Blanda moved into the spotlight for the first time, as an artist stepping into collaboration with one of the biggest streetart gurus of our time, OBEY. We were allowed to take a closer look at her work and the person behind it and are impressed by the vital energy and motivation of this overly down-to-earth creator.

eVe presents: adidas City vs. City “Berlin” campaign

Back in June we were asked by our eVerette Sneakerqueen aka Julia Schoierer to collaborate on a very flattering project: supporting with the styling for the Fall 2011 adidas City vs. City campaign, representing our lovely city Berlin. Of course the answer was YES.

First steps first we chose our stunning models. We wanted to show the different faces of this multicultural city, bringing in different heritages, from Japanese to Afro-American and Turkish. Mika Moriyama, Michelle Reed, Maureen Caulk and Bahar Kaygusuz were the perfect beauties for this project, easily being able to slip into different styles and thus being able to tell different stories through their looks.

Project Unknown: Till the very end!

Monday morning, start of the three day countdown till departure!

Highly motivated & excited, we play early birds heading to the factory. We continue to work on our designs, fine tune the last details, discuss our models, study Pantone books (on the lawn while trying to catch a tan- after all we still haven’t been to the sun!) and enjoy more cafeteria food made by some local mama’s in the back of the factory.

After lunch we get the highlight of factory involvement, when we’re invited to try out some of the production processes ourselves. Hand-sawing & cutting were on the menu. They bandage our fingers, to have enough grip for using the big needle, show us the technique of crossing over the threads when pinching though the pre-made holes, make us push & pull the thread though the wholes with all the strength we’ve got. Definitely exhausting, we all try to finish one shoe in about 20min. Practice makes perfect, Michal has a second job if she gets fired one day, she left us standing in the cold with the amazing speed of her test-shot.

Cutting was waywayway easier. Place the leather on a flat surface, choose the metal mold you want to use, place it on the leather, pull over the machine, press the  two buttons on the handle- there you go with a beautifully cut example of a shoe part!

We definitely brought some entertainment to the over-time workers that afternoon. Picture five ladies in hot jeans shorts in a freakin hot Dominican factory, walking around comfortably as if it would be their living room. The guys do a strange noise instead of whistling: a sort of hissing, that sounds more evil than actually flirty or friendly. Again something to get used to- two of us fall in love with the moper.

Drop dead tired we head to Restaurante Tropical. First time we see the sea from so close! Nice environment, kind of weird food. Everything is tropical; Tropical Pasta, Tropical Chicken, Tropical Malboro Lights? We stick to plantains, grilled chicken and mango & strawberry margaritas, of course and are loving the scenery before hitting the sheets.

7am, last full day on the island! We wanna take a few shots at Faro Colon, which we drove by a few days earlier and really caught our attention thinking it was a huge jail. The big “Mayan” looking structure contains historical objects of all South and Middle American countries. Or at least that’s how much we understood of it, since we unfortunately didn’t have time to actually go inside. Having to be careful with robbers, we are guarded at all times.

After fooling around for a little, we head back towards Area Colonial, the old part of town, close to where we had the Hodelpa Prostitute Incidents. Taking some shots here and there, we stop at the one souvenir shop which would bother us the least. We surely realized something from this point onwards: DR is crazy expensive! No little gifts for our loved ones at home, hammocks that costs USD $81 (that’s probably more than at IKEA), everything is ten bucks or more. This surprising fact will follow us till the end! On some sort of way we all thought that since its not a really developed county, that life there would be kind of cheap. Not happening!

I guess its strange to be on the beach that same afternoon and pay as much as your food there as an afternoon at Soho House! Talking about the beach, guess what: It starts raining, even through the umbrellas! Of course- but whatever, nothing is going to bring us down anymore! We are at the beach! Finally, and loving every second of it.

We arrive at the local overcrowded hot-spot, that looks far from the Caribbean picture perfect emerald water vision everybody has from fairytales. This is the real deal. Real music, real food, coconuts, real starers, real big booted mama’s cat-walking along the water shore. Oh, real drunk Dominican teenagers, too, among them the least wasted Jeffrey who manages to capture some of ours attention span. For a minute.

We are hosted by our first drivers Don Pablo´s family and his niece Monya giving us the safety they say we need. The waiters put 5 beds right in front of the beach, serve us yummy fried squid and as much cocktails as we can count. Tourists we are, tourists we’ll probably meant to be in this country.

We are picked up to go for a suggested spot by Cesar a few days earlier, Boca Marina. We should’ve just listened to him! A beautiful secluded restaurant & water spot, where we’ll have grilled fish and beef carpaccio at. The beautiful sunset light, candles blowing in the wind, white & wood furniture everywhere, no air conditioning, as much hot sauce as you could possible want and the music on perfect volume- this is the picture we were kind of looking for the last days. At least once, lets have a perfect cliche moment! Loving everything, we decide that we need to repeat that location before we leave.

Next day, departure day! A cute last picture of our first helping hand lady Claudia in the factory, a last group picture, goodbyes to Chris and Cesar, hugging goodbye Sandrine who left earlier and Mdot who would keep on working at the factory, we set off with Hana to white heaven paradise. And guess what: this time, the sun was shining, till the very end.

Thank you all, it was “Our Pleasure”!

July 26th, 2011
Project Unknown: Weekend in Santo Domingo!

With the last element arriving in the middle of the night from Paris, we head to the factory with Sandrine, Mdot & Hana, with just 3 hours of sleep at 7 in the morning- who said we were going to come here to chill & on holiday modus? We were invited here to experience something special, create for and collaborate with a heritage brand, influencing them with one of the things we all know best about: style.

First things first, we finally got the official tour of the factory. It was breathtaking. Seeing how each process is done, the man-power, talent, strength, and concentration it takes to craft something we all wear on a daily basis was something nearly indescribable. Something so simple and common- we never actually think about how its really done. Hana said something beautifully: “Each time I will find myself wearing that, I will remember the face of the person who has made it”. Its really like that. The genuine warm smiles of the Dominican’s, the harmonious feeling in that factory, the smell of leather, the humid heat mixed with the load sounds of the blasting fans… all those small details are packed up in an end product which we’ll have in our closet in a year.

Have you ever thought about how the workers bandage their fingers each day, to not get harmed when hand-sawing the shoes you wear to work? Or how they stand in a boiling hot room next to an oven all day so the shoe actually gets the shape it is? How they glue, stitch, cut, shape and create what we think is cool? We saw around 30 different processes, each amazingly essential, each crucial and indispensable. Of course some of the workers were nice to look at, too!

After the factory, it wasn’t hard to find the first activity we all wanted to do: Beach, beach, beach! And what did we get, just when we stepped outside of the cement block? Rain, rain, rain! Driving to a mall to buy towels, we ask our driver Leonel to get us some smoking paper. Be sure to search the right picture, to find out what sort of paper he got for us! Super nice try, but that unfortunately wont work, amigo nuestro! A few kilometers further, and of course having changed the route into a sad-faced-this-rain-wont-ever-stop-today-so-lets-go-back-to-the-hotel plan B, we manage to buy the exquisite and most expensive french made OCB’s rolling papers ever, for $5 each. The small ones. Whatever! It will do!

We head to the hotel and get ready for the big night out. Salomon invited us to the supposed to be DR party of the year which he is giving, hosting Holy Ghost and the Spanish version of eVe, rapper La Mala Rodriguez. The location is a Porsche/Ferrari dealership, tucked in a strange side street in a remote corner of Santo Domingo. We don’t know what to expect, but high-heels are probably a good option to go with.

We arrive at the full on sponsored location; Smirnoff Nightlife Experience, Red Bull, Orange, everything really which would give some money to the +$30.000 they spent on getting the artists over. A thousand Kim Kardashians, all wearing super high heels, super tight bandeau dresses, and tons of make up stumble around showing nothing but ass, tits, ass, tits and viceversa. Most of them not being beautiful, they still are way better than the male versions of greasy Enrique Iglesias, in Polo Ralph Lauren and pointy shoes. We instantly get, that these people are probably some of Santo Domingo’s tacky elite, the rich kids of the upper class.

We discover an anorexic looking girl, her alien cheekbones and her possibly being a guy are the center of a half an hour conversation we have standing outside, addicted to people watching.

After hanging out with Salomon and his friends, we are harassed by 20 year kids, cockily asking us to dance with them. They say they would even visit us in Europe, catching their private jet. “Sorry mayne, you really remind us of our little brothers. This is not ok, this really wont work!”.

We escape, medium-drunk, walking to get a cab at the front of the venue. The security guy sends us to a big ass SUV. We jump in and get to know one of our trip heroes: ladies & gentleman, meet Fernando Jimenez. Head of security of the Domenican Republic, has been the bodyguard of the President for 13 years. He tells us next month he will take care of Beyonce for a month, has been taking care of Ricky Martin, who would go and take a shit straight away after eating local food.

He takes us to Payan, a 24hour snack bar, serving killer sandwiches and the best mango juice we had in the whole stay. The locals seem used to tourists sitting on the 55 year old chairs around the counter, although knowing who Fernando was, they all thought we were celebrities. A traditional hotspot, a place we would have probably never went to if our personal bodyguard would not have had an eye on us. Its 4.am.- time to go to bed to go beaching the next day.

And of course, on the only free day we had, Sunshine Sunday was now a freaking non-stop-10-hour torrential storm. Given our great amount of luck, we stayed at the hotel, had a massage, got stoned and slept as much as we could, before Salomon picked us up for dinner.

Location: Maison Something Something, in the beautiful old part of town, eating traditional Dominican food, delighting our senses. Everything was perfect, except the crab meat smashed whatever it was that literally smelled like cat-food.

To be continued…

Project Unknown: Touchdown – The first two days!

Santo Domingo, 72 hours later. What sounds like the opening title of the female version of Hangover, might just become exactly that.

It all started in Madrid, when we boarded a 1989 Iberia machine. Probably the most unsexy plane we’ve seen in the last 10 years. The dirty carpet and stained blankets, the dark brown color palette of the seats mixed with the ultra-non-technologic features and the ignorance of the stewardesses made up the perfect symbiosis to start this trip in style. 9 hours of comfort, nearly cold meatballs in tomato sauce and chemical deserts were in front of us. First thought: how can an airline like Iberia still be flying passengers in a wreckage like this one? We’re sure its just the one they use to ship people to a third world country.

After 20 minutes of waiting on the airport runway, craving a cigarette like crazy, we’re blown over by a moisture heater which is switched onto the highest level.

We change our euros, get a tourist card for $10 and head to customs, not knowing in which hotel we will be staying at. Don Pablo, a big dark 2m. man, is standing outside the airport escorting us to his Pablomobil. We drive to the factory passing palm trees, packed buses with ladies wearing curls and taxi bikes transporting more passengers than you can count.

Mdot Booji & Hana May May welcome us together with VP Chris and the local factory manager César. We are confronted with what comes to be a regular standard here: fucking freezing interiors, the air condition on full blast. Why do they need it to be so fucking cold? Stepping outside the directors offices, we hit the factory. Around 300 people are standing rowed up next to each other, controlling heavy greasy metal machines, cutting, sawing, manufacturing and moving to the extreme loud South-American music blasting through the speakers. They stare at us, watching the strangers invading their territory. Smiling at us, whistling and saying stuff in Spanish most of us cant understand, we head upstairs to the base of our creativity. The material mansion. Thousands of samples, threads and applications are stocked in boxes and folders for us to go through and take decisions on what we will like to work with within our collections.

Overwhelmed and tired from the travel, they drive us to our first hotel (important fact to hold onto for later!) in the middle of nowhere. A golf resort, a supposed to be Hilton, in which we each get a huge freezing cold suite. We have 10 minutes to get ready, dinner is planned in a good Italian place near the beach. We sit at the long table, company members are part of the troupe, eat funny tasting mozzarella, strange frizzy wine and a lasagna that just saved the rest. Midnight swim at the hotel drinking bad vodka, speaking about the industry, how women need to fight to get through and about men, of course.

Jet-lagged, waking up at 6.30, we get ready for the first factory day by eating powder scrambled eggs and fresh yummy fruits.

Four ladies (one still on the way) head to the beloved material mansion, sitting in between textiles for 5 hours, letting their creativity take the proper ride we were all waiting for. Lunch at the cafeteria; fried chicken, pasta, rice & french fries. Calories’ hell, here we go!

After another afternoon session working on our designs, we give the first call to a guy to hook us up with the essential greenness we cant live without. The beginning of a great trip would probably just have started here.

We are moving, hotel number two! Company thought we’d be better off in the capital, where we can shop & move around by ourselves… golfing is not really our fetish. We arrive to Hodelpa, a supposed to be new hotel right next to Hard Rock Cafe, Santo Domingo. Tucked in a scruffy side street, the interior look just as such. Its one of those environments in which you prefer to keep your windows closed and surely check your toilet seat before you sit down. Hana sees prostitutes all over and we discover that there are rooms called “Red Wine”. So much to that, we definitely wanna get out of there asap.

We head out, Hard Rock Cafe becomes our location of safety, since we do feel this strange insecurity when walking around. Something which doesn’t happen that much to us when we travel. Something lays in Santo Domingo’s air, screaming out: “just take a double look around your shoulder”.

People watching at some plaza, sipping mojitos, eating nachos & having a serious laugh at all the ladies wearing heels and not being able to walk on them. This will become a phenomenon throughout the trip!

We wait 45 minutes for a trustworthy cab to take us to Fellini’s aka super cool dude Salomon’s restaurant. A typical restaurant owner kind of guy: somewhat convinced of himself, but still with a very good heart and that friendly touch just an entrepreneur can have. 26, born & raised in SantoDomingo, sharing the business with 3 partners who are into hustling and drive fat fast sexy Range Rovers. He is the best local hook-up we could have had, taking care of us and making sure we get everything we need. The food is the best one we had so far in the DR, and we just enjoy sitting around a western sort of scenery. We meet Roberto the restaurants chef, Oscar who owns Sushi Samba in the US, Luka the too-much-in-love-with-himself-good-looking-DJ and of course our favorite guy Eric Ervin, the sweet sweaty, extremely funny & crazy entertainment Lawyer based in NYC. He speaks in an over the top british accent and reminds of a sort of young Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The perfect character to put in a strange ass Gus Van Sant (or similar) movie, playing a freaky professor.

We connect, eat&drink, smoke & are on a killer high after the initial small lows of the first 24hrs. Laughing at cab drivers saying “Mucho Grade” at the $5000 Canon we were carrying around, we head back to horrible Hotelpa to welcome our last lady arriving late… never miss your flight again Ms. Sandrine Sandrinette!

Short Story for eVe by T. van Lingen: “Nichts passiert”

Illustration by CONRADI

Frauen Männer/ Männer Frauen/ Frauen Frauen/ Männer Männer und von Vorn. Das Lieblingsthema unserer Gesellschaft und jeder hat seine eigene Art & Weise damit umzugehen und diese Beziehungen auszudrücken. Im Folgenden findet ihr eine Kurzgeschichte, exklusiv geschrieben von T. van Lingen für eVe. Mehr wollen wir nicht verraten und überlassen dem Künstler sein Revier…

Nichts passiert

„Komm mit“, sage ich. Und sie blickt nach unten, weg, so dass ich sie nicht sehen kann. „Was spricht dagegen?“, frage ich sie. Es ist still, es rauscht. Ich höre alles, aber nicht sie. Und das nervt mich.

Ich höre sie nie, sehe sie aber oft. Sie sagt nichts, ihr Gesicht bewegt sich anders, ich weiss, dass sich ihr Mund bewegt, ich weiß, sie erzählt mir Dinge, aber ich weiss, sie meint etwas anderes. Wäre ich 16, ja, dann würde ich ihr glauben. Aber ich bin bald 30, ich glaube ihr nicht mehr. Ich glaube kaum noch etwas. Und das ganz ohne Zynismus. Es ist einfach so. Es ist so, dass älter werden. Dinge verändern sich, fühlen sich an, wie es unsere Eltern uns immer versprochen haben.

Karina Kino x eVe – “I Lost You Inside Of Me”

From the mystical tale of lustful individuals, she knew that sometimes it is not enough to devour things with our eyes. We are hungry, greedy people. We want to eat too. We want to dream too.

She always dreamed of eVe. She thought: When you read her name. You read it. But don’t you want to hear her too? Is it wrong to want to touch her? Or, even, see her? Personify her?

eVe,” she said, laying in her bed in a slumber that slipped between imaginative dreams and conscious awareness. Her head was in a wild flow of thought, a pendulum of unrestricted interpretation. In the dead heat of summer, in a room filled with dense, humid air, she awoke and opened her bedroom door. Her name was Karina Kino. And as she peered forward, she could only see white.

She heard a voice call, from the depths of the white hallway. “I lost you inside of me,” it teased. She followed the echoes, taking a step outside. ”eVe?” she asked, overwhelmed by curiosity.

“A Random Day With…Wendy James”

Wendy James is the epitome of all woman rock chic. Most may recall her name from the late ’80’s and early ’90’s when the rebellious singer took center stage with her band, Transvision Vamp. Unbearably cool, the band spewed out singles that were constant hits on worldwide charts and even released a number one hit album on the UK Albums Chart in 1989, Velveteen. After much success the band split and Wendy, with the help of Elvis Costello and his wife at the time, Cait O’Riordan, released her first solo album, Now Ain’t The Time For Your Tears in 1993.

Following the album, Wendy took a brief hiatus, coming back onto the music scene in 2004 with her new band Racine. After two albums the band split, but Wendy kept on going, keeping the music alive. In 2009 she recorded the album I Came To Blow Minds, which was released on October 19th. With her rocker ways, rebellious attitude and empowered female stance there is nothing not to love about the great Wendy James.

eVe Presents: Interview with Elinor Carucci


We interviewed Elinor Carucci, our current and beloved ‘Artist of the Month,’ to explore notions of powerful women, when boundaries are acceptable and how to fell comfortable in our own skin. Thank you Elinor!

*Can you say that you have found your own identity as powerful woman, and if so, how would you define it?

My definition of being a powerful woman is a very flexible one, and I think it is possible because I live in a time when the women of my previous generations started the battle of women’s rights. Thanks to them I have more choices as a woman, something that makes me more comfortable in my own skin. Being a powerful woman is a very complex issue, I think it is mainly to be able to make decisions and choices that will allow you to live the life you want, be the women you are, and have our society support it, whether you are the CEO of a top company, married or not, have children or not, doing the very tough job of devoting your time to motherhood and all that is somewhere in between.

*How have you found so much trust in making your personal life public by showing your most intimate details?

First of all I think that my personal life is not public. Most of my life is not photographed, and even with what is photographed a lot is not being heard, told or revealed. Yet, I do agree that a lot of what is considered to be personal in our society is being shown in my work, and I have learned that it is a need of mine to share, not to hide, what in opinion is normal, and maybe make it acceptable by doing that. At the end of the day it’s not only about trust, it’s also about hope, the hope to be understood, to make things in ourselves acceptable and to somehow create comfort with my images.

*Do you have boundaries?

My boundaries are lie where my loved ones might be offended or disrupted. I myself have little limits, and feel like I can share myself with the world, but I limit and edit my work when I feel my loved ones might be offended, or disrupted.

*What’s eVe for you?

Womanhood for me goes with compassion and sensitivity somehow, but it can be many different things.

eVe presents: Esther Perbandt


Esther Perbandt ist Designerin und echte Berlinerin. Wir durften die Frau mit der Frisur als Markenzeichen, exklusiv und virtuell bei einem ihrer vielen kreative Prozesse begleiten, angefangen von den ersten Schritten im Atelier bis hin zu den Baltic Fashion Awards, für welchen sie nominiert wurde. Sie gibt uns tiefe Einblicke in ihrer Arbeit, ihre Inspirationen und ihre Erfahrungen. Esther erzählt uns im Interview , wie sie zu ihrer eigenen Muse mutiert ist und warum “die Sonne den Mond küsst und die Schatten das Licht berühren”. Warum das ultimative eVe Teil der Herbst/Winter Kollektion 2010 der Overall ‘Orbit’ ist und warum sie sich doch mit 12 Jahren entschied Modedesignerin zu werden. Eine weitere starke und erfolgreiche Frau, die uns umgibt und uns weitere Definitionen einer perfekten eVe nennt.

Esther Perbandt is a German fashion designer, a true Berliner. We were allowed to exclusively follow her on one of her many creative processes, accompanying the woman with the trademark hairstyle, virtually, from her first steps in the studio up to the Baltic Fashion Awards for which she was nominated. She gives us deep insights into her work, her inspirations and experiences. In the interview she tells us, how she has become her own muse, how “the sun kisses the moon and the shadows touch the light”, why the ultimate eVe clothing piece is the “Orbit” overall from the upcoming Fall/Winter collection and why she did decide to become a fashion designer when she was just twelve-years-old. Esther Perbandt is yet another strong and successful woman who surrounds us, giving us yet another definition of a perfect eVe.

eVe presents: Cosma Shiva Hagen x H&M “Fashion Against Aids”

In collaboration with H&M we present our eVerette Cosma Shiva Hagen in the Fashion Against Aids “Festival Collection”. The recently launched campaign seeks to unify both music and fashion, together with a constant fund raise, donating 25% of the sold proceeds to youth HIV/AIDS awareness projects.

Cosma was chosen to be the face of this first in-house production, not only because of her amazing beauty, but also for her ongoing support to numerous charity and fair-trade projects, ranging from The Noble Project, Peta, KickHIV and Go Ahead among others.

On an unplanned “Father’s Day”, 5 women headed to the beautiful lake of Liepnitzsee, close to Berlin, to produce the first eVe without adam shooting. The eVerette and photographer Franziska Taffelt, was ready to take out her analogue Hasselblad for a journey, and capture Cosma’s travelling experience on the way to her personal festival: Eden.

Heute möchten wir unsere eVerette Cosma Shiva Hagen in einem exklusiv Feature bei eVe, in der aktuellen Fashion Against Aids ‘Festival Collection’ von H&M zeigen. Die erst kürzlich erschienene Kollektion ist ein Projekt zur Unterstützung von Organisationen, um das Bewusstsein der Jugend in Bezug auf HIV/AIDS zu schärfen. 25% des Erlöses geht dabei direkt an die Hilfsorganisationen.

Cosma Shiva Hagen, als Gesicht der ersten in-house Produktion, haben wir nicht nur deshalb ausgesucht, weil sie unglaublich hübsch ist und eine Person des öffentlichen Lebens; vor allem haben wir sie deshalb ausgesucht, weil sie dafür bekannt ist Gemeinnützige Projekte zu unterstützen. Von The Noble Project, Peta, KickHIV und Go Ahead, ist sie nun unser Gesicht für die Fashion Against Aids Kollektion von H&M.

Hier findet ihr die komplette Bildstrecke und ein kleines Interview von Cosma Shiva Hagen x H&M!

eVe presents: tINI “The Interview”

On a recent post-work evening, we sat down in Berlin to have a cool talk with the Hamburg-based superwoman and DJane tINI (artist alife) to find about more about her, her music world and entourage, her gay view on the business and on her plans to move to Berlin in Fall. It was the first Skype interview for all of us, but surely mad fun- she is a natural when it comes to spontaneity and good laughs.

See the full interview after the click- thank you again tINI!

An einem der unzähligen letzten Afterwork Abende, haben wir das Vergnügen gehabt ein Interview mit der in Hamburg lebenden Superfrau und DJane tINI von Artist Alife zu machen. Wir wollten mehr über sie, ihre Musikwelt, ihr Leben und ihre ‘lesbische’ Sicht auf das Biz wissen. Warum es sie im Herbst nach Berlin zieht und was für Projekte ihr bevor stehen. Es war für uns alle das erste Skype Interview, aber es hat wunderbar funktioniert (bis auf kleine Macken- ja, eine von uns ist etwas abgeschnitten ;) )- ein absolut gelungener Girlstalk! Sie ist echt, natürlich und spontan und erzählt uns ganz privat aus ihrem Nähkästchen.

Das ganze Interview findet ihr nach dem Click!

A Random Day With… Marga Spiegel.


She sits at the same Arne Jackobsen kitchen table she has been sitting at for the past 22 years, living alone in a cosy “museum” apartment in the centre of the small German city of Münster. From her room she has direct view onto the red brick square and her small winter garden, hosting the perfections of her green thumb, while she continues applying the soft standard make-up she is used to, with the by now shaking hands. Her white long hair is beautifully laid the same way she has worn it for the past decades, with small adornments such as the coral hair needle she so dearly loves, fitting perfectly to the golden Tora she wears around her neck. Wrinkles on her face and body are the proof of the incredibly interesting life she has lived for the past 98 years.
