Recently graduated from a professional licence in “Fashion Industry” in ESAA Duperré, I have chosen to create a leather goods collection.
My experience permitted me to consider both the technical and the creative sides. I have learnt to think out the material according to its characteristics and qualities, then to project it in a formal way according to the scope of application. The one which impassions me the most is that of leather goods, because the notions of functionality, containers and aesthetic have to be present in it. In my work, this results in using precious materials, sometimes mixed with more technical materials, varying between a playful universe and a more luxurious world.

VILLÉGIATURE-S

Sublime structures, luxurious villas, sumptuous second homes, and small hotels stand proudly in an enviable landscapes offering a breath- taking panoramic view. Smart and sophisticated, but also naive and innocent, these places of beauty are naturally inherent at some luxurious and magnificent destinations. These buildings, offered to our sight, are sea resorts, nested in coastal bays on French Riviera, or are winter sports resorts, implanted in the most appreciated mountains, such Megève, Courchevel or Gstaad. More solitary and impertinent, these villas can also hide on the heights of a peninsula throwing itself into the sea or on the abrupt wall of a mountain, hidden by fir trees.
Shaped carefully, these holiday resorts in inside furnished in the point and always tastefully do not depend any more neither on the seasonal context nor on the will of the conquest of space. The vacuity of time, bound to the harbours of peace of mind of these places of sailing, open the door to various more spirited and more energetic activities.
In my project, the contrast is a kind of complement maintaining beneficial interdependent relations. The matching between the rigidity of materials used for the construction and the organic fluidity of the environment could be very similar to the duality of the steepness of the architectural lines opposed to the languor of the lifestyle of vacationers. The use of the bag is only dedicated here to pleasure and leisure.
