Von Der Sebastian, founded in 2024 by Peksen & Bilgi Brothers, aims to establish itself as a distinctive symbol of refined, wearable masculinity, beginning with its inaugural AW2025-26 collection.
As the creative director of Von Der Sebastian, Sabahattin Derya Peksen brings over 20 years of extensive experience in the fashion industry, including roles as a fashion editor, merchandiser, brand manager, international import/export manager, and, most recently, production manager for leather outerwear collections for high-end global brands.
Cihan Bilgi, a skilled and driven entrepreneur in business development, has a strong background in private label leather and shearling production for renowned global and local brands. He has also pioneered multiple fusion women’s brands through his family business, based in Turkey and Italy.
With a vision to offer an accessible yet exclusive luxury concept, Von Der Sebastian presents its debut collection, blending a retrospective essence with timeless elegance. The “Notable Noble” and “Smarter than Casual” lines showcase an experimental, reinterpreted approach to tailoring, with leather as the primary material and unique, sophisticated details throughout.
