His captivating and poignant pencil drawings travelled the world in a series of successful exhibitions in Paris, Vienna, Tokyo and Mexico. Charles' work has been published in some of the most celebrated avant garde magazines including Purple and Dazed and Confused.
The ultimate testimonial to his talent was the commission by Calvin Klein to illustrate an advertising campaign in 2004. Charles' ethereal and often nostalgic collections are born of the desire to capture the beauty of the 19th century Victorian images, which have captivated him since childhood. Reminiscent of the demi couture, which was the zeitgeist of this period for young ladies, Charles' signature silhouettes evoke a naivety but yet are executed with the precision of the tailors of Savile Row. Chic and conservative yet playful, Charles Anastase's bijoux collections are coveted by Keira Knightley, Chloe Sevigny, Emma Watson, Beth Ditto and Yoko Ono amongst others.
In August 2008 Charles Anastase announced a five year production and licensing agreement with luxury Italian agency Pier spa, whose prestigious designer's include Balenciaga, Azzedine Alaia and Sophia Kokosalaki. The agreement will launch with Charles' debut pre collection for Spring/ Summer 2009.
