The inspiration for Leitner’s Spring/Summer 2022 collection “Vacation on the Moon” is the Mondsee lake in Austria and her vision of designing the collection for a holiday on the moon. The silhouettes are inspired by dirndls, sailor jackets and spacesuits. The color palette is defined by metallic silver tones and a mix of summery colors like pink and various shades of blue.
