2014 introduced a lot of changes. The designers opened up their own boutique on Chmielna street in the Jabłkowski townhouse. They separated the brand into three clothing lines and added ‘+’. ZUO Corp.+ is the black line – the most daring, designer, consisting of the highest quality materials, from jeans to down jackets, knitwear, blazers, appropriately expensive jewellery, small leather haberdashery pieces, shoes: boots, stilettos, low shoes for men. This clothing line is both for men and women. The white line – the cheapest, is for the youngest customers, the pink – especially for women. In it we will find: conservative high quality pieces, elegant with a light twist, designer but very conventional pieces for women, who like comfortable clothing, work at high position jobs in corporations, don’t experiment with fashion yet have an interest in it. The designs for men (along with undergarments) – are ZUO’s most treasured pieces. Bartek and Łukasz believe, Polish men don’t have a place to shop for good quality and original clothing at an affordable price.
In March 2015, they summed up their five year activity with another fashion – architectonic installation. In the Warsaw concept store, Pies czy Suka, ZUO Corp. in collaboration with Play presented the dress of the future - that was enclosed in a small cube like space in a hexagonal form, covered with mirror foil from the inside.
The dress was created with the use of modern high-tech, hand-made fabric that came from a Swiss manufactory. The material brings to mind a light, flexible one-way mirror. This effect was achieved by merging metallic threads together.
