The main objective of the studio is for students to take a fresh, creative approach to clothing, shoes and accessories and to explore how they cross over into cutting-edge fashion art. Students are encouraged to transfer this free creativity into commercial prêt-à-porter forms in preparation for the real world of the Czech and international clothing industry. They are also given guidance in establishing a label and managing a business.
HEAD OF THE STUDIO
prof. Liběna Rochová
She has been working in the field for many years, often representing Czech fashion design abroad (exhibitions and shows in Vienna, Paris, Lyon, New York, Dusseldorf and Los Angeles). Her experience and skills allow her to design film, theatre and stage costumes, tailor-made works of art, gowns for singer performances as well as everyday clothing, prêt-a-porter collections and her own collections of unique models, the most prestigious discipline for each fashion designer. Her work is inspired by individual and fine art and is more open to art than to strictly fashion design forms.
She cooperates with the Austrian association of lace manufacturers for whom she creates inspiring models. Her works are represented in the collection of Museé de Tissus in Lyon, and in the museums of decorative arts in Prague and Brno.
In 1992, she was awarded the title "Designer of the Season" at the Styl Brno trade fair, in 1995, she won the "Excellent Design" award by the Design Center of the Czech Republic, in 2009 her collection Homage to Glass won the second prize on Czech Grand Design. She designs glass jewels for AJETO - "Liběna Rochová for AJETO".
She organizes regular summer workshops at the farm of actor Bolek Polívka.
In 1999, she founded Studio LR in Prague, in 2005 a gallery supporting young designers was opened within the Studio LR.
