Alter és Kiss[2] was the leading fashion house in Central Europe which began in 1829 in Budapest, Hungary, producing tailor-made clothing for the high society, including the Viennese royal family.

As reported by the Magyar Bazár[3] in 1866:
“The whole country is familiar with their reputation. There is no doubt every woman… is familiar with the shop’s best characteristics... Generations before, women used to buy their endowment garments at the Alter és Kiss shop, and now, so do their grandchildren.”

According to Magyar Bazár, the first shop for Alter és Kiss was founded by Antal Alter in 1829. The shop was located on 10 (13 today), Vaci utca, one of Budapest’s most famous and popular streets.

The brand was revived in 2009 by its new creators, Central St. Martins graduates Gabor Fabricius and Mei Mei Ding, with the devoted support of the Alter family.
