A graduate of the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Rennes, Monique Poirier has for years been making with passion, unique articles crocheted and dyed by hand. For this summer, a desire for lightness and transparency has inspired her to make these extremely lightweight linen tops to wear on a second skin.
Ysabel de Maisonneuve
Some ultra-fine silks and other denser ones for wraps to lay on or wrap around one’s neck and shoulders. Unique hand-dyed articles, playing with volume and light. Hand-dyed cotton t-shirts.
Catherine Jahan
Painting or alchemy, the work of Catherine Jahan borders on these two worlds. The fabrics she diverts are amazing in colour and aspect. She works for haute couture, theatre and cinema. This summer, she has created hand painted, striped or irridescent silk organza scarves and put a little gold and silver on linen dresses.
Elemente Clemente
Beautiful quality linen well cut jackets, blouses and trousers. Finishings done with care, a sleek style and elegance. We are daring to wear pistachio green!
Fra-Joséphine
Linen stoles hand printed on a frame. A return to floral motifs, inspired by the paintings of Jouy, 80 x 200 cm. Linen scarves dyed with organic pigments 50 x 170 cm, in cotton muslin 42 x 162 cm. The freshness of linen and flowers for the summer .
Aude Tahon
Poetic jewelry and airy ornaments, hand-made with Korean knots, using one single thread from beginning to end, her works play with volume and depth, space and density. The light passes through them, allowing us to perceive their sophistication. Winner of the Grand Prix for Creation of the City of Paris - Crafts Section-2005, Aude is exhibited in numerous museums and galleries all over the world.
Diana Brennan
Work on metal wire knit, volume and transparency, Diana Brennan’s research is now developing around jewelery and ornaments, and is turning her necklaces into starry skies across which travel a few asteroids. Necklaces made of metal wire, broches and earrings with glass beads.
Kreyann
Silk trousers in shimmering colors. Anna Ngann Yonn, the creator of KREYANN, has developed her brand in Cameroon, after working for a while for ESMOD. Her shop in Douala is a great success.
Jemala
Fuschia and royal blue for summer, black and off-white, gentle pastel colours. Diamond or plain weave, lightness and softness, Jemala stoles are hand woven in a worsted wool fibre finer than cashmere. Jemala was born of Ian and Phyllis Gill’s passion for wool. Their farm in Benalla, near Victoria, Australia, produces the finest Merino wool in the world (14 microns). An exceptional product! Diamond weave stoles 60 x 200 cm, plain weave stoles 100 x 200 cm.
Avani
Avani is an NGO which seeks to develop self-reliance and local know-how in remote villages in the Himalayan mountains. Their magnificent stoles and scarves made of wild Muga silk or wool and silk, are dyed naturally with plants in subtle harmonies of colours mixing with the natural gold of the Muga silk. Artisanal dye houses are heated by solar energy. A great project and great products.
