ESCADA

ESCADA is a German luxury fashion brand founded by Margaretha and Wolfgang Ley in 1978. Margaretha Ley was a former model with professional tailoring training, and her creative vision quickly gave the company a distinctive personality. At a time when much luxury fashion favored more restrained palettes, ESCADA embraced intense color, bold prints, embroidery and elaborate decorative details.

ESCADA femininity is confident and optimistic. It speaks to women who enjoy visibility while maintaining polished sophistication. The glamour of the 1980s, rich color and strong feminine imagery became enduring cultural codes of the house. Fragrance naturally extends this mood through color, joy, feminine energy and a playful interpretation of luxury. ESCADA offers a kind of sophistication that does not feel distant or severe, but vibrant, expressive and full of life.
