TIM COPPENS

TIM COPPENS Tim Coppens was founded in New York in 2011. SS15 marks the first full expansion of Tim Coppens into womenswear. Craftsmanship is blended with innovation.

Born and raised in Belgium, Tim Coppens graduated from the internationally acclaimed Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 1998. He has worked with various luxury and sports-performance brands as Adidas and Ralph Lauren before founding his own label. His collections are defined as athletic luxury portrayed with elegance and sophistication. The energy of the city, street culture, as well as a pu

lse that feels the present and the future are sources of inspiration. Since his first season, Tim Coppens has received strong support and praise from both retailers and press. WWD selected him as part of the “10 of Tomorrow” Rising Stars. Barneys New York immediately ordered his first collection and international retailers followed suit, including Dover Street Market, Isetan, Club 21, Harvey Nichols UK, Mr. Porter and Lane Crawford. In 2012 he received the Ecco Domani Award for “Best New Menswear Designer”. The following year he was awarded the Fashion Group International Rising Star of the Year. Most recently Coppens was a top 10 finalist for the LVMH Prize and the 2014 winner of the CFDA Swarovski Award for Menswear. This year he has been nominated for the CFDA “Menswear Designer of the Year” Award.

W MAGAZINE: "The eponymous line he launched in 2011 reflects everything in his life up until now: an appreciation of beautifully cut tailoring and sportswear, a fascination for technical sport construction, late '90s skate culture and a love of the streets of New York where he’s lived for the past ten years"

This year's guest designer at Florence’s Pitti Uomo is Tim Coppens, whose namesake collections usually underline a love of the streets of New York, where the Belgian has lived for the past decade.
