Meet the Designers Behind Topshop's Next Collaboration

Topshop announced today that it's renewing its collaboration with the young British label Meadham Kirchoff. Hitting stores Nov 21, the collaboration is inspired by an imaginary band. 

Edward Meadham and Benjamin Kirchhoff met and became friends while studying fashion at Central Saint Martins in London. They graduated in 2002 and started their womenswear brand in 2006.

The designers have said that they "do not to have a signature but rather a handwriting. We like to tell stories in different ways." Their collections are wildly varied, referencing everything from the Victorian Age to The Addams Family, but they do show a penchant for baby doll dresses, pattern-mixing, and anachronistic mashups.

Their upcoming collaboration with Topshop is inspired by a fictional all-girl band called The Cherrys. (Elle UK reports that there are four mini-ranges in the collaboration inspired by each of the imaginary ladies in the band: Cherry Cherie, Cherry Satanica, Cherry Pikka, and Cherry Blossom.)

"It's a bit Spice Girls, a bit Marilyn Manson, and a bit Jem and the Holograms, with a large dose of Kembra Pfhaler," Meadham told the magazine
