Artista is the label used by six of Hungary's top designers. The label is already well established in Hungary and has already been introduced in Austria, the Ukraine and Germany. Everywhere they go, prizes are won and their name is a synonym for quality and originality.

These six fabulous designers are:


Katalin Imre
Júlia Iván
Abel Köves
Nóra Rácz
Edina Schön
Katalin Stampf


[] "We have targeted the young generation so we are playing a game with colours and materials that don't follow the usual fashion format. We experiment and you cannot find this kind of style in most shops." - Abel Köves


"Our clothes are creative, but they are wearable if Hungarians would dare to wear them. Our task is to show them how." - Edina Schön

Artista has three different labels:

  • Artista Artista - the most daring label, referred to as "freakwear" by locals
  • Artista Classic - formal clothes that even you dare to wear
  • Artista Co - somewhere inbetween the latter two

Artista started out with the first label, but has expanded in recent years. Not in the last place due to their managing director Patrick Gardner, pictured below with his wife Jenny:

 "We want to see Artista as Eastern Europe's number one fashion house. The clothes are distinctive, creative and they stand out. We want people to say `that must be an Artista'. Artista represents the best of modern Hungary and we can help them turn that talent into business success." - Patrick Gardner, Artista's managing director
