Bernhard Willhelm
Born in Ulm, southern Germany, he received his diploma in fashion design with honors in July 1998 at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. During his studies he assisted Walter Van Beirendonck, Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, and Dirk Bikkembergs. Straight after leaving college he founded a company together with Jutta Kraus to launch his first women’s collection, which was shown at Paris Fashion Week in March 1999.

Willhelm’s career has been marked by collaborations with artists such as Björk, Olaf Breuning, and Carsten Fock, and by awards including the Moët & Chandon Fashion Prize (2001) and ANDAM from the French Minister of Culture (2005). His work has been presented at the Athens Biennale; the Ursula Blickle Foundation, Stuttgart; and in retrospectives at Modemuseum, Antwerp (2007–08); Groninger Museum, Netherlands (2009–10); and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles (2015). Willhelm was also professor and head of the fashion department at the Royal Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna between 2009 and 2014.
