The world of wallin
It’s the tiny bubbles in champagne. And the soft sensation of silk against naked skin. It's not ordinary or mundane, but rather the extraordinary and exceptional that make our world more beautiful. It's the vibrant things that make us feel alive. The ones that turn heads and fill hearts with desire.
It’s the dream dresses of Lars Wallin.
Lars Wallin is a renowned Swedish fashion designer with over thirty years of experience. During the course of his career, he has designed iconic collections and unique garments for royalty, celebrities, and stars all over the world. Lars's sense of powerful glamour, chic style, and attention to detail has earned him a reputation as a top-class Nordic couture designer.
Based in central Stockholm, the studio offers custom-made festive creations and jewellery for a selected clientele. The brand heritage derives from the world of haute couture and has strong influences from French tailoring craftsmanship. With a tight team of textile designers, tailors, and assistants, we design and make dream dresses come true.
Over the years, we have carried out several successful design projects with both Nordic and international brands. Our primary expertise is exclusive fashion, but creative design really knows no boundaries. We are always interested in new collaborations.
