But a new exhibition in Basel shows he was a master of haute couture, letting his imagination rip in outfits spanning half a century of fashion.“He was immensely creative and had a great sense of fun, so his outfits were sometimes very extravagant,” curator Margret Ribbert told swissinfo. Dozens of Spillmann’s dresses, drawings and accessories are on show at Basel’s historical museum, alongside a collection of oversized rings and glasses which the designer wore around town – long before the likes of Elton John or Karl Lagerfeld. “Spillmann was a legend in Basel and was instantly recognisable,” said Ribbert. “He also had a devoted clientele of wealthy women who for decades attended his twice-yearly fashion shows.” Email with any question WE SHIP WORLDWIDE
