IN THE SPOTLIGHT: MAGDA BUTRYM

Warsaw-based Magda Butrym is praised for her cool, polished, and modern approach to dressing up, from dawn to night. Since the celebrity-loved designer launched her own namesake label in 2014, after working as a stylist, she has always had a truly clear idea of what her customers wanted. In that light, the current collection exudes a sense of tenacity, confidence and power interpreted with her signature sharp, strong padded shoulders that wink at the 80s, countered by tiny feminine waists, often cinched by belts, for a boy-meets-girl feel.
Loosely cut trenches are adorned with jewel buttons, reflecting Butrym’s longstanding love for unique jewelry pieces, while tiny crystal applications sparkle gently against herringbone wools, elevating a man’s classic to evening elegance. Butrym’s sense of sexiness is classic and timeless versus overt and obvious. Corsets are inserted into highly-detailed dresses, often fashioned with yards of pleated chiffon, providing an invisible support that traces the perfect body contours.
Dua Lipa, Hailey Baldwin Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski, Katie Holmes and Ellie Goulding are among her fans, lured by the designer’s typical silhouettes featuring strong-shoulders, splits, cabbage rose prints inspired by the romantic East.
