One of the standout collections at Amsterdam Fashion Week, you can tell Dutch designer Joline Jolink has benefited from her mix of raw talent and experience with Viktor & Rolf. Inspired by Irish furniture designer and architect Eileen Gray and other old world designers, Jolink takes geometric elements and turns them into simple, elegant and modern outfits. Her latest collection uses a muted color scheme with a dash of scarlet red in oversized shirts, kimonos, high-waisted skirts, and catsuits.

Meet Joline"I studied fashion in Arnhem, the Netherlands and interned with Viktor&Rolf. I gained much attention with my graduation collection presenting it outside the show of Celine in the Tuileries in Paris. I got nomineed for several (inter)national fashion contests and participated in shows and exhibitions in New York, Paris and Amsterdam, before deciding to start the label officially in 2006."Joline's Inspirations
