Since setting up her eponymous company Ada Zanditon in 2008, Ada made her catwalk debut to an international audience at London Fashion Week in September 09 at Vauxhall Fashion Scout’s “Ones to Watch” show. This was followed by a solo show with VFS in February 2010. In September 2010, Ada will be showcasing her SS11 collection at a presentation with On|Off.
Ada is first and foremost an outstanding designer, who creates beautiful, cutting edge, inimitable collections with the added dimension of sustainable business practises being core to the brand DNA. Ada is known for her visionary concepts which combine high fashion with a serious commitment to the environment. Ada has received recognition for her work in ethical fashion. In late 2009 she was selected for the Estethica eco fashion mentoring program by the British Fashion Council and has enjoyed a productive relationship with her mentor Bev Malik. Notably, Ada has been placed in The Observer’s top 50 of the Courvoisier future 500’s latest intake.
Ada has also increased her reputation as one of the fastest rising, creative stars in London through her recent private commissions, creating pieces for a number of music industry innovators. She created a visionary album and tour wardrobe for Patrick Wolf and has had commissions for Bishi, Robots in Disguise and Stephanie O’Brien of the Puppini Sisters. Ebony Bones is also a fan. Most recently Ada has been designing for Viktoria Modesta and St. Saviour from Groove Armada. Ada regularly exhibits at Esthetica during London Fashion week and at Rendez Vous Femme, Paris. After the success of her first solo show in 2010 she picked up significant new stockists in Belgium and the US as well as in UK.
