AADNEVIK (stylized in caps) is a British luxury fashion brand.[1] The brand provides haute couture, ready-to-wear clothes, bridal clothing, loungewear and fashion accessories.[2] It was founded in 2013 by Hila and Kristian Aadnevik,[3] and is based in Knightsbridge, London.[4][5][6]

History

[edit]

London-based Norwegian fashion designer Kristian Aadnevik established a self-titled label in 2004, which is distinct from AADNEVIK.[7][8] Kristian ceased operations of the "Kristian Aadnevik" brand in 2013 and launched the new brand "Aadnevik" after meeting his wife, Hila.[2][3] The couple met in London in 2012, where Kristian was studying womenswear at the Royal College of Art.[2][9] Hila is a self-taught designer.[10]

Their first collection, titled "Moth" was inspired by the appearance of moths and their cocoons.[11]

The label has been featured several times at London Fashion Week.[12][13][14][15] At London Fashion Week 2019, Aadnevik unveiled a collection inspired by Leo Tolstoy’s novel Anna Karenina.[16]

In October 2020, the National Museum in Oslo, Norway purchased one of the brand’s designs for its fashion collection,[17] which went on display in Spring 2021.[citation needed] In 2020, the brand announced its luxury loungewear line.[9][18]

AADNEVIK has designed and provided clothing for numerous celebrities including Beyonce, Madonna, Kendall Jenner, Halle Berry,[1][6][12] and international stars such as Ananya Panday,[19] Malaika Arora, Anushka Sharma, and Priyanka Chopra.[20] One of AADNEVIK's designs was featured in Selena Gomez's music videos for the song "Come and Get It", and another in the "Rare" video.[21]

In September 2022, AADNEVIK presented at the London Fashion Week.[22][23] The brand’s 2022 Autumn/Winter collection, titled “Wolf Moon” was inspired by Norse mythology.[24]

AADNEVIK was also featured in the 72nd issue of London Runway magazine, published in 2022.[25]

Models such as Marianne Fonseca,[25][26] Amelia Gray Hamlin,[27] and Maya Henry[25] have walked the catwalk for AADNEVIK.
