Wanderlust is not the desire to go on vacation, but the elusive demand to discover something life-changing during a voyage. Just as described by Bruce Chatwin in his travel books. The menswear collection “Auf und davon nach” (“gone to”) is based on such wanderlust during a seven-month voyage from Ghana to Mali to Mauretania. The cultural versatility of Western Africa – colors and scents, its sense of grace and beauty – merges into a dream world of colors. The collection is based on a West African boubou. The generously sized, richly pleated garment is combined with elements of western fashion such as from parkas and coats. The binary coded pattern was hand-embroi¬dered and executed in blue dye. The colors of the collection as well as the hand-woven silk/cashmere fabrics are reminiscent of the horizon of a desert landscape. Footwear made of materials like coconut palm bark complement the collection.

Jury Statement Ulf Michael Brauner’s menswear collection “Auf und davon nach” (“gone to”) is intense, enigmatic and refreshing, extremely energetic and courageous. While traveling throughout Africa Brauner recognized what his native Germany was missing. “Europe no longer motivates me. This world has become too familiar to force my soul to create new designs,” Brauner adapts a quote from the travel journal of philosopher Hermann Kyserling. He plumbed the limits of fashion with his intuition, reacts to his inner ideas of beauty. He succeeded in creating what he wanted: the collection shines. It inflames our imagination, reflects the yearnings of our era. It is rich in covers, materials and production methods. He hand-wove the striped silk/wool fabric on an Ikat loom. Small coconut palm bark segments are used as accents. Ulf Michael Brauner has a visionary talent that will unfold itself in all its richness if he is given the freedom to follow his own individual path. He is a talent that fashion needs to renew itself. – Jury Member Joachim Schirrmacher, Creative Consultant, Berlin
