Susanne Zaspel's Pin-Up with the title "Jellyfish in Heaven" was one of the most favored by the internet users and the jury of experts. Her Pin-Up reminds of a baroque porcelain figure: it's fragilely and lovely is wrapped in fine tulle which catches the eye for a breathtaking glance at the pleasure promising gleam of luxurious lingerie.

“I don't understand the Pin-up as a bearish object. For me it's a symbol of refined sex appeal, sometimes it appears to be naive, but without being stupid or empty, sometimes there is a breath of glamour and opulently around the Pin-Up.” Susanne Zaspel

Susanne Zaspel, born in Chemnitz, Germany, has studied at the University for Art and Design at Burg Giebichenstein/Halle. Her master thesis had the title "The Animal in Me". She works for her own label "HUNTING HIGH" as an independent fashion designer and illustrator in New York, Paris and Amsterdam.

Since May 2006 Susanne Zaspel has expanded her label. She is now working on a new line which could be described as „Chic meets Street Couture“. Brand new fabrics produced with innovative technology make Susanne Zaspel's collection unique. The new technology, developed by Zaspel, is at this time “Top-Secret”.

“I love to observe people. Everything is an inspiration for me: the hectic time all over a town, people pass, glances by going, fondling a velvet cat fur, a night of dance or a night of love. With all of these modules I'm playing and compile them in a completely new way. I invent sensually images which I would like to donate back. As a cosmopolitan I know about the importance of the balance between expression and self protection. I like to combine that. My fashion experience should give space for one's self, for the sexy super-heroine or the cat, which just want to hear her own purring.” Susanne Zaspel
