DIPTYCH was founded by valerie and ali in 2009.
both born on friday 13th in vienna, they believe in good karma
and free weekends. ali and valerie met during their studies at
the university of applied arts in vienna.

in 2005 their professor raf simons asked them to join his team
as junior designers at jil sander in milan.
after two seasons they decided to return to their beloved vienna.

being friends they found out that working together is really
a lot of fun. finally they decided to found their brand new
brand DIPTYCH in cafe urania.

DIPTYCH’s first womens wear collection “i’m a victim of this song”
for spring/summer 2010 was presented on the 2nd of november
2009 in tokyo.

it is inspired by their last summers favourite song by pipilotti rist.
they listened to it all summer long, while working on this collection. 
it was their summer of love and creation. 

valerie and ali like sweet potato, land art, the united nations, 
wall-e, india (although they have never been there), hot water,
werner herzog, backpacks, cafe urania, georges moustaki, 
twin peaks, yoyogi park and swami satchidananda. 

DIPTYCH likes to work in open structures. work and inspiration
is led by coincidence, feelings and mood. decisions are taken
spontaneously and incoherently.

NO REGRETS!
