Kreuzlingen, May 2010. – In summer 2010, Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, presents summer freshness: the Strellson Sportswear polo shirt.
In ten cool colours, the polo shirts are the perfect companion for hot summer days – whether with jeans, cargo trousers or shorts.
The shirts are made of 100 percent cotton, with side vents and a taped button opening. Colour contrasts on the collar and the red Strellson Sportswear logo add further accents and define the Strellson Sportswear look.
The Strellson Sportswear polo shirts are available from now in the Strellson stores, in specialist shops and
online at www.strellsonshop.de (Germany/Austria/Switzerland).
Kreuzlingen, April 2010. –In mid-March Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, opened its monostore in Cracow and with that the first of ten monostores planned in Poland. In the ECE Centre in Cracow both the Strellson Premium and Strellson Sportswear collections will be sold. The monostore in Cracow therefore joins the list of Strellson monostores which have been opened recently in China, Russia, France and the Netherlands, among other places. Further store openings have been agreed for winter 2010 in Warsaw and Gdansk. The Galeria Krakowska, an ECE project, with its central position near the old town, and its modern architecture, is the ideal place for the Strellson store. The design of the shop, as in all the other Strellson stores, keeps to the clear, functional Strellson architectural style. It conveys the consistent and unalterable impression of the Strellson brand and its products.Large concrete slabs, complemented by elements made of steel and glass, make it possible to experience fashion in an exciting but at the same time relaxed way. So the concept of the store can represent the Strellson man perfectly: straightforward, modern, expressive, cool.

Kreuzlingen, February 2010. – Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, can be seen on YouTube from now on with Strellson TV. On YouTube, the largest video portal in the world, with about a billion videos watched per day, the end-consumer can get a better understanding of the world of Strellson by means of films.

Kreuzlingen, January 2010 - The Swiss fashion and lifestyle brand Strellson will launch a special collection with an African theme as part of the Spring/Summer 2010 collection. This is a tribute to the continent of Africa, and picks up on their great passion for football, adding musical influences, since music is the main theme of the collection in the Spring/Summer 2010 season.
The theme of Africa was used in the photo series “At the source of soccer” for the first Strellson newspaper in 2007. This photographic art is featured again as prints on various styles in the Strellson Sportswear collection, along with the music and the outline of the continent of Africa: beginning with jackets, shirts, going on to T-shirts and trousers and even to caps and belts. The colour range of the “We are Africa!” collection is inspired by the varied colours of Africa: strong colours like yellow, green and purple in contrast to the quiet basic colours of the collection.
Strellson Sportswear is using this special collection as an opportunity for a charity project, in this way continuing a collaboration with the Constant Gardener Trust (CGT) which began in 2007. In cooperation with the CGT, Strellson is financing and making possible the building of a water supply at the secondary school in Loiyangalani/Kenya.
The Constant Gardener Trust was created in 2004 as a result of the shooting of the film “The Constant Gardener” (starring Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz) which was mainly filmed in Kenya. The purpose of the CGT is to support and build educational institutions and sanitary installations in the towns, villages and regions in which the film was set.
The Strellson “We are Africa!” collection will be available from March 2010 in specialist shops internationally and in Strellson monostores.

Kreuzlingen, August 2009. – Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, opened a Strellson Premium store in Axento, in Luxembourg, at the beginning of July.

Kreuzlingen, February 2009. – Within the framework of the Spring/Summer 2009 collection, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle company Strellson will be launching a collection with images from the work of the internationally famous pop artist Mel Ramos. The painter, who now lives in Oakland near San Francisco, has painted two pictures of pin-up girls in his typical style, exclusively for Strellson, and has integrated the brands and products very clearly in the images as a whole. This is the first time that a fashion company and one of the last pop artists still painting have cooperated in this way. The collection, which was developed around the two Strellson images, is a homage to Mel Ramos.
The two images are found either complete or in variations as a print on different styles in the Strellson sportswear collection: starting with jackets and jeans, then by way of sweatshirts, shirts and T-shirts to bags and shoes. Accessories such as scarves, cufflinks and chains complete the collection. In addition to the two paintings, quotations from earlier work and portraits by Mel Ramos are also used as prints.
The colours in the “Mel Ramos Collection” are inspired by the most important phase of pop Art, the 1960s to 1980s. Depending on the delivery date, strong colours like Saxony Blue, Burned Orange, Raspberry Pink, Sunflower, Green and Purple form a contrast to the subdued basic colours of the collection.
Limited editions of a leather jacket and of two specially packed high-quality T-shirts showing the two images specially painted for Strellson will be the highlights of the collection.
The “Mel Ramos Collection” will be available from Strellson Sportswear from March 2009 in specialised shops internationally, in Strellson monostores and in the Strellson Online-Shop at www.strellsonshop.com.
Kreuzlingen, October 2008. – With “No 1 The Strellson Magazine” Issue 2, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle company Strellson presents the second edition of the newspaper which appeared for the first time in 2007. Once again the paper reflects the world of Strellson and its target group in its artistic and photographic standards.
The Strellson Magazine is a journey through countries in which the brand and its target group live and move. Both can be recognised in everything that is done, thought and said – whether it's in Japan, in the USA, in Senegal or in Switzerland. The magazine shows strong, unmistakable personalities in their daily surroundings, and demonstrates the differences as well as the similarities in their worlds. Emotions are communicated by means of pictures and texts that are authentic and expressive, varied and individual, lively and modern. The clear language of the pictures, with their surprising images, is complemented by expressive texts with a personal background.
High-quality sequences of photographs of a documentary character alternate with interviews which also demonstrate the artistic standard of the paper, with interesting statistics about the small Alpine country, and exciting stories to inspire the readers, or make them think, or smile.
In the subject-matter, the emphasis moves from the striving for change, via the global thinking of a new generation, to awareness of one's own tradition and appreciation of art and culture.The pictures were taken by well-known photographers such as Tyler Hicks or Masaru Tatsuki, but also by younger talents like Maximilian Rossner of Munich.
With the second edition of “No 1 The Strellson Magazine” Strellson carries on with the form of communication that is typical of the brand and speaks directly to the target group. The Swiss company has been developing its internationally successful advertising campaign according to this concept for several years now.
“No 1 The Strellson Magazine” Issue 2 will be available immediately in selected kiosks and book shops and in Strellson shop-in-shops and monostores all over Europe.

Kreuzlingen, September 2007. – Strellson, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle label, presents “No 1 The Strellson Magazine”, the first edition of its very own newspaper. “No 1 The Strellson Magazine”: a paper that will catch everyone's eye because of its high-quality photographs and its special format.
On its 72 pages it depicts the world in which the Strellson target group lives, in photo sequences covering several pages. Expressive pictures and texts show authentically how Strellson and all those who work with the label see the world. The contents are shown in an unusual way which emphasises the method of communication that is typical of the brand. Strellson gives the brand name a visual form with “No 1 The Strellson Magazine” and in this way strikes out on a new path of communication. The target group is approached directly in a modern, innovative and lively way. With this very special project Strellson demonstrates yet again its creativity in the field of marketing, and continues its successful form of communication.
The main focus of the paper is the unique large-format photographs, which are complemented by short succinct texts. The art of photography is combined with Strellson fashion, emotions are stirred and the reader acquires a feeling for the world of Strellson and the attitudes of the target group. In five sequences of pictures, moments are caught which make the standpoint of the brand clear - in the particular, individual imagery which is so characteristic of Strellson. The pictures were taken in the USA, Kenya and Switzerland by famous photographers like Matthias Ziegler, for example, but also by promising newcomers like Maximilian Rossner. Double-page spreads with pictures and texts which attract attention and subtly demand something make the reader think, or even smile, and create a link between the photos in the paper.
“No 1 The Strellson Magazine” will appear once a year in future and will be available from September 2007 in selected kiosks and bookshops, and also in Strellson Shop-in-Shops and monostores throughout Europe.
Kreuzlingen, August 2007. - Strellson, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle label, presents a further development of the legendary Swiss Cross Original Jacket: the Swiss Cross Reloaded Jacket. An outdoor jacket with an authentic look for the cold, wet days in the coming autumn and winter.
A striking feature of this high-tech nylon jacket is the fact that the colour does not rub off onto other fabrics. It is also particularly wind- and water-repellent. The woollen inner lining made of a replica of the Swiss army blanket keeps the wearer warm. The black army knife, which is secured inside the jacket by a metal chain, and the removable bag on the tie-belt are useful for genuine fans of the outdoors. And all those who would like to wear the jacket on warmer days in the spring too can simply take out the inner lining.
The Strellson Swiss Cross Reloaded Jacket is available immediately in four colours in high-class specialist shops.

Kreuzlingen / St. Moritz, January 2007. – At the Polo World Cup on Snow in St. Moritz, the best polo players in the world compete to provide the spectators with a special kind of show, and to battle for the coveted Cartier-Trophy.The high-quality polo shirts worn by the Cartier, Brioni, Maybach und Julius Bär teams were manufactured by the international men’s fashion label Strellson in a limited edition.
The 23rd Polo World Cup on Snow took place from Thursday 25th to Sunday 28th January on the frozen St. Moritz Lake. The tournament is part of the so-called Polo World Tour. There is no other place in the world where polo, fashion, society and glamour are so perfectly mixed as in this select holiday resort. The European jet set mingle here with oriental princes and local polo enthusiasts to form an informal fan club which makes the frozen lake its stage.
The international fashion label Strellson was commissioned to supply all the teams exclusively with its famous, sought-after polo shirts. It is not only the quality of the material of the team shirt which is admired, all the embroidery, appliqués, badges and prints meet the highest standards. The shirt was produced in a limited edition and can only be obtained from www.poloshop.ch or “Ender Sport” in St. Moritz, a trading partner of Strellson.
As the exclusive outfitter, Strellson had its own Strellson Trophy, for which the Maybach team competed against Brioni on Friday 26th January.

The slim-line jacket with kidskin trims is no problem to machine wash at home. Thanks to the carbon coating, it does not fade further through the laundering and its unique look is preserved.
The “Black Jacket” from Strellson will go on offer at specialist outlets from January 2007, flanked by a dedicated advertising campaign in international lifestyle magazines, business journals and major daily newspapers.

At “Pohland” the Swiss company opened a 40 m2 Strellson Swiss Cross Shop in Krefeld in September and a 80 m2 Strellson Premium Shop in the Frankfurter Haus on the “Zeil”, Frankfurt’s main shopping street. Following the refurbishment of “Lust for Life” in Aachen and its re-opening on 1 September 2006, Strellson presents Premium and Strellson Swiss Cross Shop spaces in a top location. Furthermore, between July and August, Strellson opened further sales areas at “Wöhrl” (Ingolstadt, Ulm), “Breuninger” (Stuttgart, Freiburg, Sindelfingen and Reutlingen), “Robert Ley” (Herzogenrath), “Schulze” in Siegen and “Hövel” in Kerpen.In Switzerland Strellson is opening a 40 m2 Strellson Premium Shop at “Von Daeniken” in Brugg and a Strellson Swiss Cross Shop at “44 forty four men & women store” in Oftringen.
Strellson’s pursuit of international expansion is also ongoing in the monostore sector. In October, in collaboration with franchise partners, a store with an area of 300 m2 will open in Cairo (Egypt), as well as stores in St. Petersburg, Kazan and Ekaterinburg (Russia). A Strellson store in Breda (Netherlands) already opened its doors at the beginning of September.
Strellson, the international fashion and lifestyle brand, will present three innovative new products in autumn/winter 2006: a sports jacket and a suit in the Premium Line range, and a jacket in the Swiss Cross collection.
As a part of the “Boulevard St Germain” fashion theme, Strellson will show the “Laurence Jacket”, a casual sports jacket with a vintage look. It acquires this look by means of the special “diamond washed” process, which also ensures a soft feel.
For business appointments, the “Manhattan Suit” is ideal, a modern, slim-fit glen check suit with slanting patch pockets. The high-quality material, Super 100 flannel, ensures a soft feel and is very pleasant to wear.
Whether it’s shopping in town or going for a cycle ride with friends, the Strellson Swiss Cross “Defender Jacket” is the perfect autumn companion. This military-look outdoor jacket is given its authentic washed appearance by washing with lava stones. A detachable woollen lining and a collar of cosy teddy-bear fur make this jacket a real must-have in the coming autumn/winter.
As a further development of the successful Swiss Cross jacket, Strellson now presents the WHITE EAGLE collection, a compact range for the high season to complement the Autumn/Winter 2006 collection. The collection was named after a battalion of the Swiss Mountain Soldiers.
The main feature of the WHITE EAGLE collection is a jacket whose lining consists of a replica of a white army blanket. Only officers of the Swiss Mountain Soldiers have these white blankets, and they cannot be bought anywhere. Moreover, the outside of the jacket is made of a new material in which the background shines faintly through, as a result of a special washing process. An original detail of the jacket is a white officer’s knife made by Victorinox, which is fastened to the inside of the jacket with a metal chain.
In addition to the jacket, the collection consists of knitwear, cargo trousers, jeans, sports shirts and also a sports jacket with military details. The colour of the army blanket, white with a red stripe, sets the tone here too, as regards colour. All parts of the collection are labelled with the Strellson Swiss Cross original logo with its laurel wreath, which can be found as a badge, as a print, or embroidered on the garments.
The collection will be in specialist shops from October 2006, and sales will be supported by innovative PoS measures – among other things, an original Swiss sledge with Strellson Swiss Cross branding will be raffled.
Just in time for the World Cup 2006 in Germany, the Swiss fashion label Strellson is presenting a unique and exceptional promotion: every shopkeeper who takes part in the promotion can raffle an original table football set with Strellson Swiss Cross branding among his customers.
Under the motto ‘come in, play, win’, Strellson customers can take part in the raffle either with an invitation they have received in a mail-shot or with cards they can fill in at the shop. During the period of the promotion, which goes on until the end of May, the table football games will be available for an exciting contest in the shops.
The aim of the promotion is on the one hand to bring more people into the Strellson sales areas, and thus support the shopkeeper, and on the other hand to make an original table football set available for skilful games at home, just in time for the greatest football event of the year. So after every world cup match the whistle will go for another game at home.
Strellson, the Swiss fashion and lifestyle company, continues its successful and well-known campaign, in which men of the “New Generation” are portrayed, with its Autumn/Winter 2006 image campaign. This time, the two “modern heroes” Greg Paine (a writer from Tokyo) and Stephane Olivier (an artist from Paris) were photographed by Matt Jones in the urbane surroundings of the trend metropolis New York in a journalistic style. The two models are ideal embodiments of the typical Strellson style: international, dynamic, attractive und authentic.The four advertisements (three for Strellson Premium and one for Strellson Swiss Cross) will be seen in international fashion, lifestyle, and news magazines from August onwards.
The campaign was created in co-operation with the Munich advertising agency Inkcorporated. The Creative Director is Claudia Jäh; in-house Senka Stütz, Head of Advertising & Communications Strellson, is responsible for the campaign. The media agency is Media Relations, Munich.

Strellson Swiss Cross shows Cuban life. Authentic in form, quality, colours and details. Prints and patterns, which are a consistent feature of the collection, give this fashion theme the genuine feel of life on the beaches of Cuba.
The smart chic of the Strellson Premium Line conveys the typical atmosphere of a Havana lounge. Fine washed cotton and linen fabrics, and soft smooth silhouettes in sports jackets, trousers and shirts which are shaped to the body yet casual. Here too the warm colours of Cuba predominate, as well as a lot of white, pastel shades, and prints.

In the new monostore in Paris, the two product lines Premium (ready-to-wear) and Swiss Cross (sportswear) are skilfully presented together.The shop design in steel, black wood and glass, with a grey slate floor, sets off the clear concept of the business and ready-to-wear collections of Strellson Premium.
For the presentation of the Swiss Cross sportswear, white acrylic glass, lit from within, is generously used, along with stainless steel.
For VIP customers a special shopping area has been created at the back of the shop. Here Strellson man can count on receiving styling advice and special service, undisturbed, in a personal club atmosphere, with a bar and plasma display.

Strellson Monostore Opening in Paris
The Holy Fashion Group and its new structure
Kreuzlingen, April 2010. –In mid-March Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, opened its monostore in Cracow and with that the first of ten monostores planned in Poland. In the ECE Centre in Cracow both the Strellson Premium and Strellson Sportswear collections will be sold. The monostore in Cracow therefore joins the list of Strellson monostores which have been opened recently in China, Russia, France and the Netherlands, among other places. Further store openings have been agreed for winter 2010 in Warsaw and Gdansk. The Galeria Krakowska, an ECE project, with its central position near the old town, and its modern architecture, is the ideal place for the Strellson store. The design of the shop, as in all the other Strellson stores, keeps to the clear, functional Strellson architectural style. It conveys the consistent and unalterable impression of the Strellson brand and its products.
Kreuzlingen, February 2010. – Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company, can be seen on YouTube from now on with Strellson TV. On YouTube, the largest video portal in the world, with about a billion videos watched per day, the end-consumer can get a better understanding of the world of Strellson by means of films. As well as videos of our collections, films portraying our image are shown, and in future there will be specials about events. www.youtube.com/strellsontv
Kreuzlingen, October 2008. – At the beginning of October 2008 Strellson, the Swiss international fashion and lifestyle company opened the first Strellson Monostore in the Swiss capital Berne. In the new leisure and shopping centre “Westside”, designed by Daniel Libeskind, Strellson is presenting itself for the first time in a monostore in its own home market.
The store, run by their franchise partner “Herren Globus“ opened its doors for the first time on 8. October. Over an area of about 200 m2 the label is showing the whole world of Strellson Premium and Strellson Sportswear, starting with clothing and going on through shoes and bags to underwear, beachwear and socks.
As in all the Strellson Monostores which are being opened at this time in China, Russia, Belgium, the Netherlands and Austria, among other places, the design of the store was developed taking into account the brand philosophy as well as the demands of the space. The urbanity of the city is reflected in the shop in large concrete slabs which are fixed to the walls and floors . The language of the shapes and the materials used in the space are like the Strellson man: clear, expressive and modern. The rough walls are contrasted with brown shop fittings in the Strellson Premium area, and with white glossy fitments in the Strellson Sportswear section.
The concept for the store in Berne was developed in collaboration with “Blocher Blocher Shops“ (Stuttgart). The work was carried out by Konrad Knoblauch GmbH (Markdorf).

A collection will comprise 15 to 20 models altogether, and consist of 50% sunglasses and 50% frames for corrective glasses.
