A studio visit to Talbot Runhof in Munich, the place where modern evening wear is created.
The magical fashion creations of Talbot Runhof float across the red carpets of the world on global stars such as Selena Gomez, Kristen Stewart or Helen Hunt. But the true secret of the couture house's success lies in dresses that evoke such Hollywood moments in real life. Dresses in which you feel dressed like a modern goddess, appropriate for the occasion, yet so comfortable that you can move freely in society and even party in them. The super-elegant, ultra-feminine gowns made from the most beautiful fabrics on earth are the result of really good, functional cuts and the relaxed perfection behind them. In a simple backyard near Munich's Gärtnerplatz, each model is crafted from the design to the final creation, which will one day conquer the hearts of customers.
There, designs are made, sewn, tried on, and adjusted until every seam flows perfectly, every ruffle drapes smoothly, every sequin adds emphasis, and the lace crowns the whole. The atmosphere is relaxed, with no sign of excitement or rush – steam irons hiss, sewing machines whir, hangers clatter. Watching the two designers Adrian Runhof and Johnny Talbot work on a model is like watching "Giselle" at La Scala in Milan – every movement is precise, yet lightness prevails. If you want to experience the magic of the result for yourself, you should head to the Zurich Salon Boutique. And if you're lucky, you might even meet one of the designers. "We are part-time Swiss," says Adrian Runhof, as he gently checks a drape, "so opening a boutique in Zurich was at the top of our to-do list. In the Hahnloser family, we found ideal partners and friends to realize this dream. Because a strong desire can never be suppressed." This is how fashion fairy tales come true.
