Boris Bidjan Saberi is a German menswear designer based in Barcelona.[1] [2] His work is noted for its wide range of references, including skate culture, streetstyle, hip-hop, and clothing from the Middle East.[3]

Early life

Saberi was born in Munich on 11 September 1978[2] to a German mother and Persian father.[4] His parents both worked in fashion, running their own label, and introduced their son to the industry early on.[4] He studied fashion design in Barcelona, graduating in 2006.[2]

Career

While still a student, Saberi launched his first label, a leather accessory line called 'UCANFUCKW' in 2003 or 2004.[5] After graduation, he launched his eponymous label in 2006.[1] [4] While he lives and works in Spain, Saberi has regularly presented his collections at Paris Fashion Week,[2] though he debuted in Barcelona.[6] The avant garde nature, sombreness, and elegant "schlampigkeit" (sloppiness) of his work has led to comparisons with Ann Demeulemeester and Rick Owens.[4]

In 2013, Saberi launched a secondary line called 11 by Boris Bidjan Saberi.[7] This line features more streetwear with a sporty appearance and is generally targeting a lower price point than the products in his main line.

In 2017, he was listed as one of HypeBeast's HB100, their annual list of the most influential creators in the industry.[8]

In 2016, Saberi Collaborated with Geza Schoen, a Berlin-based perfumer and creator of the Eccentric Molecules line. It is inspired by the scents often found in Saberi's own atelier and has notes of vegetable tanned horse skin, which the brand is known for using in their garments.[11]
