Caren Pfleger

Cologne-based designer Caren Pfleger once had ambitions to be a doctor-and studied medicine before becoming a model. Having gained an insight into the fashion world, she went on to graduate from the New York Fashion Institute of Technology in the late '70s and founded her own production company. Her first ready-to-wear collection in 1980 was well received, and a year later her designs were shown at New York's Guggenheim Museum. She is a three-time winner of the prestigious Fil d'Or fashion award.

Quality and practicality are the essence of Caren Pfleger's designs, which are created in simple lines, classic styles and luxurious fabrics. They can be found in boutiques spread from Harvey Nichols in London to Saks Fifth Avenue in New York and more recently in Hong Kong.
