Regina Tiedeken

After her apprenticeship as a tailor, Regina Tiedeken studied at the Berlin University of the Arts in the master class of Vivienne Westwood, graduating in 2000. She then assisted Prof. Vivienne Westwood for another five years at the Berlin University of the Arts, while she built up her own fashion label, which she now runs with her husband Thomas Keller under the name TIEDEKEN.
For her first historical feature film as a costume designer in 2001 about the encounter between Johann Sebastian Bach and Frederick the Great she worked alongside the british designer Vivienne Westwood. The film was awarded the Swiss Film Prize in the category Best Fiction Film.
Starting in 2011 she showed up responsible for the costume design for five of the most successful German feature films in recent years - TÜRKISCH FÜR ANFÄNGER ( 2011 ), FACK JU GÖHTE 1-3 ( 2013, 2015 & 2017 ) & DAS PERFEKTE GEHEIMNIS ( 2019 ) - directed by Bora Dagtekin - all films won the LOLA as the most attended film at the German Film Awards.
In her last feature film, directed by Aelrun Goette, she was able to combine her two passions, that of costume designer and that of fashion designer: IN A COUNTRY THAT NO LONGER EXISTS - a film about the fashion scene in East Berlin at the end of the eighties.
For this work, she was awarded the Günter Rohrbach Film Prize and nominated for Best Costume Design at the German Film Awards.
