Introduction
István Dohár is a Hungarian interior designer and the co-founder of the Adeline André house. He established the Paris company with André in 1981, joining an interior and spatial practice to her experiments in garment construction.
Dohár belongs to the house’s foundational history and helped support its early ateliers and unconventional presentation environments. The brand frequently used galleries and salons instead of standard runway staging, treating the room, the movement of models and the proximity of guests as part of how the clothing was understood.
Design ethos
Dohár’s documented contribution lies in spatial and institutional support; the clothes remained under Adeline André’s authorship. His interior-design background aligns with the house’s preference for clear rooms, direct observation and exhibitions in which garments remain connected to moving bodies.
Public biographical information is limited. His profile therefore concentrates on the 1981 co-foundation and the presentation culture developed around the house.
