Lena Hoschek is known for her interpretations of the traditional Austrian tracht and dirndl (originally from the Alps region) for everyday wear and festive clothing. Additionally to the 'Tradition' line, the label presents each season a couture inspired ready-to-wear collection; Spring/Summer 2016 'En Provence' is elaborated from authentic archive material concerning French textile culture and easy-going glamour of actresses like Romy Schneider or Jane Birkin. The third Lena Hoschek line is 'Atelier' where tailor-made bridal wear and festive gowns are designed and produced individually for customers; 'Atelier' chief designer is Thomas Kirchgrabner. Lena Hoschek's concept of the store's interior fits to the label's re-interpretations of (life-)styles of former generations; the vintage lightning and wallpapers were created after original designs of former decades and pay homage to the glam of the golden times of Hollywood. The interior is designed by Lena Hoschek herself; even for the store-music (from original vintage radios with modern sound equipment), she contributes her own favorite tracks.
