A fashion designer turned financial advisor had his days of glory while creating couture gowns for the women of Germany, Russia, China and the United Kingdom. Alongside this, he is also one of the emerging minds in investment planning and financial consultancy services.

The world of fashion is like a picture of society at that point in history. You can look at a picture, and the clothes that the individuals clad in it will tell you the era they are living in. Standing amid creativity and color is fashion designer Adam Edelberg who positions his designs as innovative with a unique touch. Edelberg had an interest in all things fashion and pursued it to reach his dreams. His creations have a spark of culture fused with the nuances of modern times.

Opportunity to work with famous designer Wolfgang Joop

Adam takes his opportunity to work alongside German designer Wolfgang Joop as a matter of pride and humility. Learning from a veteran artist like Joop has done wonders to infuse fashion principles in his designs. The list of honors that Joop has under his belt portrays his stature in this highly competitive world. Having Joop as a mentor, who is famous for designing ensembles for royalty and celebrity, worked wonders for an aspiring designer like Edelberg. It is no wonder then that Edelberg got the opportunity to dress Lady Gaga, which most designers could only dream about. Edelberg finds trends in couture as one of the most sought-after professions in the world. He feels that these fashion trends unify men and women of a specific period. It was only until the pandemic struck and the fashion industry suffered from its impact that Edelberg found skills in a completely different domain—finance. Like many across the globe who were forced to reskill to make their ends meet, Edelberg was no different. Now, he is one of the most confident minds in financial matters and offers financial consultancy services to his fashion clients. He is developing his own YouTube channel to share his knowledge and inspire people to think beyond the normal and do business outside the usual.

Lessons learned; life gained

There are quite a few lessons that one can learn from a personality like Edelberg. One thing is for sure; life cannot be lived by the book. It is essential to go with the flow and adapt to the changing times. After all, the world of fashion is one of those worlds where changes happen rapidly as well as sporadically. People adapt to the changing styles to be a part of the community, to share a sense of bonding with fellow beings. We would rarely find someone in the nineties who dressed like they were still living in the eighties. The same concept can be applied globally and locally.

When he is not involved in providing professional services, Edelberg is mostly learning a new language or cooking up a storm in his kitchen. An interesting personality like Edelberg always knows how to make the best of any situation. His flexibility and adaptability are just what this world needs.
