Sander Lak to launch namesake label during Paris Fashion Week
Sander Lak, the founder and creative director of the former cult-favourite label Sies Marjan, is making a return to the fashion industry with the debut of his namesake brand, Sanderlak.
With a vision shaped by Lak's global upbringing and his ongoing exploration of identity and place, Sanderlak aims to introduce a fresh perspective to the world of luxury fashion.
Each year, the brand will draw inspiration from a specific location, serving as a conceptual anchor for its collections. These chosen places will influence the themes, palette, textures, and mood of the designs.
Though grounded in menswear, the collections are designed to transcend gender, offering an inclusive approach to luxury clothing.
For Lak, this new chapter builds on a career that began with studies at ArtEZ in Arnhem and a Master's degree in menswear from Central Saint Martins in London. His professional journey has included roles at 3.1 Phillip Lim in New York, Balmain in Paris, and a five-year tenure at Dries Van Noten in Antwerp.
In 2016, Lak launched Sies Marjan in New York, a label named after his parents. The brand earned Lak the CFDA Emerging Designer of the Year award in 2018, along with multiple industry nominations, before closing its doors in 2020 due to the economic impact of Covid-19.
His debut namesake collection will be unveiled in Paris through private appointments.
