enSoie is the traditional Zurich based silk house, which supplied for more than a hundred years all the important couture houses in Rome and Paris under the name of «Abraham und Brauchbar». In 1976 Monique Meier Leuthold took over the company. Shortly afterwards she started working with different artists such as Peter Fischli, Dieter Meier, Salomée, Luciano Castelli, Helen Branger and most recently Pascal Möhlmann who all developed artworks for foulards and fabrics.
The new collection «Edition» from enSoie plays with shape and colour. It symbolises the tradition of the company: textile drafts, colour and printing techniques. Perfectly expressed in the title of a silk foulard created by Dieter Meier, Artist: «The description of colour is impossible, you have to wear it»
