Originally from the Black Forest, a region known for its classically German folkloristic attire, Jasmin Eckerle created Garland Coo aiming at subverting the interpretation of the landscape into avant-garde fashion. The influence of the unique nature, light and colors of her birth region are sublimated by the shapes, fabrics and textures she uses and plays with to create Garland Coo’s signature. 

Garland Coo’s silhouettes were first exhibited in the group show “Outer Dark” in 2013 at the Museum für angewandte Kunst, in Frankfurt. Evoking the notion of a shell that serves to protect the nomadic body, the deconstructed outerwear also speaks to the idea of the body as the meeting point of the physical, the symbolic and the sociological.
