Baartmans & Siegel SS15
Wouter Baartmans and Amber Siegel, the London based Dutch British combo, are certainly making their presence known in the men’s fashion universe. Their names aren’t household ones at the moment, but no doubt over the coming few years that will most definitely change.
The duo met while at avant-garde fashion house, Viktor & Rolf, and were united in their belief of beautiful craftsmanship and imaginative design. Their style has quickly evolved and matured and tge duo describe their look as, “Classic elegance with modern masculinity.”
Already they have brought their unique take on menswear to successful collaborations with the likes of Penfield and Grenson. But moving into Autumn and 2015 get ready for the onslaught, with projects planned with the likes of River Island, Kickers and the subject of today’s post. Nixon, the contemporary watch brand have teamed up with this dynamic duo for their first folly into London Fashion. Since their humble beginnings in southern California, Nixon is now distributed in over 90 countries, boasts a team of some of the leading talents in Skate, Surf and Snow and a product range grown to include clothing, accessories and custom audio products.
Proud to focus on the items that aren’t noticed first, Nixon’s collections are filled with innovative and contemporary designs. Working to make the small things as good as can be, “so when you wear it, you feel like you’ve got a leg up on the rest of the world.” A statement the brand has abided by for the past fifteen years.

Hi,
I have recently discovered this designer duo and love what they are doing and their focus on fabric textures and shaping in their menswear designs. It is great to hear that they are teaming up with the watch brand Nixon. Do you see them ever creating something with any other watch brands that are of a more traditional style?
