Founded in 2016 by Christa Bösch and Cosima Gadient in Berlin, Ottolinger operates as an independent design and research studio working across fashion, material innovation, and creative direction. The studio explores the relationship between construction and destruction - transforming process into concept and material into experience.

Ottolinger’s practice is rooted in experimentation and precision. Each project investigates the emotional and technical dimensions of clothing: how garments are built, altered, and perceived. The studio combines couture-level craftsmanship with industrial methods, producing outcomes that are simultaneously raw and refined.

Through its collections and agency collaborations, Ottolinger has developed a distinct language of modern construction - intuitive, emotional, and exact. Beyond its own label, the studio provides consulting and creative direction for selected partners and global brands.

Ottolinger Agency Projects have included: SKIMS (Collection Design), Khy (Collection Design), Yeezy (Creative Direction, Collection Design, Research), JNBY (SUB Brand, Collection Design)
