PREVIEW

A preview of a little project I'm working on, inspired in equal parts by Tatiana Parfionova, Tarsem and Vittorio Storaro. A scrapbook of photography, iconography and found objects. More to follow, and maybe a space to house it all.

BRETON

As a "petite française", Breton stripes have been a part of my life forever. My first Breton-striped knit sweater adorned my being before I could walk (along with side-buttoned culottes and navy kid-leather flat Mary-Janes).  But S/S11 has seen them everywhere... on sunhats, summer-furs, shoes, bags and every piece of RTW imaginable.  But trust two of my fall-back-favourites to nail the stripe.  Jil Sander for a deck-chair take on eveningwear and Maison Martin Margiela for penitentiary-chic.  Merçi à l'histoire maritime Bretonne.
