Wolford BRIEFS

Founded in 1950, Austrian clothing and accessories brand Wolford has long merged innovative design with easy sophistication. Early leaders in seamless hosiery and elasticized transparent tights, the company’s research-led production continues exclusively in Bregenz, Austria and Slovenia. Over the years, collaboration with venerable designers has helped inform Wolford’s use of new materials, including ventures with Vivienne Westwood and Kenzo. In dresses, pullovers, leggings, and lingerie, the label presents as simplicity with an avant-garde edge. Classic cuts are re-interpreted to strike an ideal balance of luxury and comfort, while transparencies and graphical details transform staples into statements. The results are dynamic pieces that transition from professional to private life seamlessly.
