Can you tell us more about your 2018 collection?

Elegant, destination pieces with a 70s urban touch.

Tell us about your most memorable moment whilst creating this collection?

During the design process, I listened to Véronique Sanson’s album, ‘Amoureuse’ on repeat. It takes quite a few weeks to create a whole collection
– so I’ll let you guess how many hours I ended up listening to it! Who wants to do a karaoke battle on the track ‘Besoin de Personne’? ;-)

What is your biggest source of inspiration?

Paris and terraces thronged with people, the films and actors of the Nouvelle Vague, and the singers of the 70s
(Janis Joplin, Joan Baez, Jefferson Airplane, Joni Mitchell….)

If you were getting married tomorrow, what dress would you wear from your collection?

I’m married, so I’ve already worn the dress of my dreams. But if I was going to do it all again, I’d choose something simple like the Romy or Vicky from the 2018 collection – otherwise, it would have to be the Sacha dress from the upcoming ’19 collection out in July.
