Alexej Ballach was born in Russia in the 1980s, in a time and place where the urge for creativity was nurtured in a unique way. From a young age, he turned to art, attending private art schools and working part-time alongside various artists who fostered his talent and passion. In 2003, he decided to devote himself to fashion. At a prestigious private fashion college, he refined his skills in creating art objects and honed his drawing techniques, gaining a deep understanding of the magic hidden in every stitch and line. During his final semester in 2006, he began freelancing for his first brand. Between 2006 and 2012, he worked for various labels, yet the vision of founding his own brand – one that would express his unique perspective on fashion – burned like a constant flame.
Since 2012, Alexej Ballach has been steadily realizing his vision of contemporary fashion, with collections that renew every three months. With an impressively short lead time for pre-order collections and an unwavering commitment to quality, “Made in Germany,” his brand unfolds a style beyond gender boundaries and seasonal constraints – a dark, monochromatic minimalism that redefines the core of everyday wear in avant-garde elegance.
At every stage of collection creation, the tradition of high-quality craftsmanship is honored. The atelier-factory method we apply brings out the best of both worlds: handcrafted designs and meticulous product development are combined with partial production in Germany, forming the foundation of our work. The limited series productions are deliberately created in small, specialized ateliers that shine with expertise in their respective product categories.
Each collection complements the previous one, creating a harmonious product range that can be combined within a deliberately monochrome and radically minimalist style – a modular system that can expand limitlessly in authentic and personal ways.
Thus, a space is created where everyone can freely develop, a refuge for individual growth – to the surprise and admiration of us all.
