Thus, the Jil Sander clothing uses print sparcely, avoids loud colors and is defensive concerning accessories.First Jil Sander Collection in 1973The Fashion Designer Jil Sander was born under Heidemarie Jiline Sander in 1943 in the north of Germany. She graduated from textile engineering school and after some years in the US, she started working for magazines as fashion editor in 1963. Her first store she launched in 1968, in Hamburg.

In 1973 her own first collection came in the market, of course with the Jil Sander label.The good old timesUntil 2004 Jil Sander managed almost everything of her undertaking alone. She was the most important part in the development of the design. She selected the fabrics, and managed almost every process ending in the quality supervision of the end products. Jilline also surveyed that the Jil Sander clothes were marketed tightly. She planned the concept of her boutiques very detailed - this fact was even worth a press release. There were strict guidelines for the appearence of the stuff and also the position of the sales represants in the store was determined.Diffferent Licensed Jil Sander ProductsBesides Jil Sander Clothing and shoes there exist also licensed products.

On-again offf-again relationship with PradaIn 1999 the Jil Sander fashion company became a subsidiary of the famous fashion house Prada. It was a very "nervous" relationship. Designer Jil Sander herself left the company some months after selling it to Prada in 2000. There very many rumours that she couldn't work with the chief Bertelli. She came back in May 2003 with much fanfare, only to go away again in November 2005, mabe for the same reason.The new Jil SanderSince July 1, 2005 Belgian star designer Raf Simons has taken over as creative director. The Prada-owned company stated that Simons is responsible for the womens' and menswear collections, beginning with the autumn/winter 2006-7 collection that was shown in Milan in February 2006.
