Wide, asymmetrical women's wool pullover in wabi-sabi aesthetic in black and white for fall and winter.
Marie de Gournay was a remarkable personality: the writer, philosopher and women's rights activist lived in 16th century Paris and is considered one of the most educated women of her time. Self-taught, she acquired the knowledge she needed for her translations and writings. Because she vehemently advocated women's right to education and property in the context of the witch burnings, she is considered the mother of modern feminism.
We have dedicated the oversize women's pullover made of a wool-cotton blend, which has an organic effect, to this original feminist. It is pleasantly warming, hugs the body and at the same time gives enough free space. Obstinate are the central and side cuts on the front and back; also the asymmetrical sleeves and the three ocher stripes are unconventional details. The special color scheme and its texture give the pullover a wabi-sabi aesthetic. An individualistic creation for freedom lovers.
Combined with the black wool trousers 'Didion' or 'Feyerabend', 'Gournay' becomes an obstinate, casual ensemble for leisure and work. For special occasions, the unconventional pullover can be worn with the refined cut trousers 'Goethe' and 'Montesquieu'.

eigensinnig wien: special avant-garde fashion for men and women.
Under our avant-garde fashion label eigensinnig wien, we manufacture unique fashion pieces for obstinate characters. We design our collections in an experimental process, enriching them with thoughts and ideas from the fields of philosophy, art and literature or drawing inspiration from philosophy, art and literature. That is why our trousers and jackets, blouses and dresses bear the names of philosophers, literary figures and sociologists. We work with materials from nature, which we like to combine in asymmetrical, avant-garde cuts. Our aesthetic is based on the Japanese wabi-sabi concept: “Pare down to the essence, but don’t remove the poetry.”
