Edda Gimnes is a Norwegian womenswear designer who graduated from the London College of Fashion in 2015. Her aim is to continue combining fashion and the arts in new and unexpected way, focusing on naïve cuts and visually striking graphic prints. She draws a lot with her non-dominant hand, which adds an element of unaffected innocence to her designs and illustrations. The core identity of her brand is naivety, playfulness, imperfection and quirkiness. She has been featured in the New York Times as one of ten ‘Fresh out of Fashion School designers to watch’.
