RETUSJ

Retusj Module 1 takes you right into the season by leading you off and astray. Think of the much needed winter holidays spent at the sunniest spot available. Think of bright Gran Canarian yellows and dark volcanic greys. Think of pink coral reefs and cinober anemones or picture the pretty collection of rocks gathered at the beach, piled high with a kid’s clever eye for free treasury. Retusj Module 1 unites lean vintage luxury with unconventional handicraft and volcanic rocks. Old precious and semiprecious materials discarded, reorganized and combined into new, stellar pieces. Scoubidou knotting and glass pearls. Little raw rubber bands and Chinese Magnesite. Soft and bendy. Sharp and shimmering. Solid pieces made to mature and merge with the owner as the colour of gilded bijouterie never stops turning. As winter is coming, Retusj invites you to escape and go south. Book a flight, find a Spa or simply act up and dress the part. Regardless of your way towards summer - A tan is never better than when no one else has it.

About the Designer

RETUSJ's picture

Karen is based in Paris / Oslo, France. She studied at Oslo National Academy of the Arts (KHIO). Her collections are produced in France.

Retusj subverts everyday consumerism by literally buying it. Ripping goods off the rack, breathing fun, poise and elegance into lifeless bling, plastique strips and washed out cotton. It’s all about pulling sad, weird or lonesome objects out of mass produce limbo, giving it new life and long lasting interest.
