Eugenie Niarchos, Founder & Designer of Venyx World

St. Moritz has always been such a special place for Eugenie:

"We used to spend a lot of time here - summer and winter - when I was younger I remember being quite outward bound; swimming in the freezing lake, snowboarding, going on hikes, mountain biking... The backdrop is majestic and gives everything you do here the quality of a movie. It is irresistible." She wouldn’t want to miss the opportunity of bringing a glimpse of St. Moritz in London

Henriette Lefort, Founder & Designer of Lefort Sport

On St. Moritz: "It is a place that’s harder to describe than one thinks. The never ending beauty of winter with air so fresh and cold it’s as if you’ve swallowed a spoonful of wasabi. The sudden warmth of spring bursting with life. The surreal colours of summer. The golden autumn with the strong scent of musk of the animals coming down from the mountain tops. There is nothing quite like the Engadin, with St. Moritz as our social capital. A beacon of culture in a sea of mountains and forests. A remote place where you come to escape, yet all your friends follow. 'St. Moritz Pops Up at Sotheby’s!' is truly a match made in heaven and I am proud to be part of this collaboration."

On the Collection: "From the tobacco tone of a pine needle to the deepest blue of a frozen lake; nature is a voice in my collections. For the beauty of it - and to survive in it, with grace and elegance."

Olivia Schuler-Voith, Founder & Creative Director of LOKOMOTIVE OOO

"St. Moritz and all the Engadin Valley hold a very special place in my heart. Not only did I grow up there but it’s been a constant source of inspiration for me personally and for my work. At LOKOMOTIVE OOO everything centres around St. Moritz - we are considered its quintessential brand, given that our team, production, atelier and showroom are all based in this beautiful valley. I’m delighted to showcase my designs for the first time ever in London and hope the artisanal craftsmanship of the Alps brings a fresh air of inspiration to the island."

"St. Moritz is my home and I draw huge amounts of inspiration from it. This place has a certain magic that everyone who comes here can feel. For this sale, I have created a special St. Moritz themed collection that reflects everything I love and associate with this place – the glamour, the sublime nature, the traditions. I have also collaborated with designer Mafalda Millies Kahane and created a range of St. Moritz inspired prints for limited edition pieces that will be showcased for the first time in this sale."

"I am delighted to see the Olympia Le-Tan®️ brand showcased in this exciting Sotheby's Pop-Up in London, alongside other prestigious brands. The essence of OLT as a brand is to elevate a fashion item into a work of art. Travelling can be an artistic journey and St. Moritz resonates with me deeply as an iconic and aesthetic destination charged with history and passion. St. Moritz is a ski village jewel in the mountains. Switzerland has a always been the reference for jewellery and luxury, so St. Moritz was an ideal theme for the Olympia Le-Tan®️ precious book clutches."
