In 1994, German-born Stephane Schneider 38 years old graduated top off his class from the Royal Academy for Fine Arts in Antwerp. With his graduated collection he won a price which gave the possibility to make a presentation during the Paris Fashion Week. As several international buyers placed their orders, business was set up immediately.

Since then Stephan Schneider presents both his men's and women's collections during Paris Fashion Weeks. The company has grown season with currently more than 70 points of sale world-wide. In April 1996 the first European Flagship store opened in Antwerp. A second followed in February 2001 in Tokyo. Since April 2007 Stephan Schneider is professor at the Fashion Department of the Berlin University of fine arts.

The intension of the collection is to dress the customer in a highly personal, recognizable way. It is a collection with usage of the same fabrics for men and women, giving her an austere and him a more gentle character, decorative elements can be found in the collection in a reduced and structured way that balances between nostalgia and reality. A reason why the company goes back to their own production facilities in Belgian factories, pieces are cut by hand and the time can be spend on the finest finishings.

By "Stephan Schneider" the client finds distinctive pieces of clothing and unequivocal look.
