This season is all about energy, dynamics, and momentum. A great burst of energy encouraging positive thinking: seeking well-being and joie de vivre, doing away with everything superfluous, finding equilibrium. The collection has been worked around this search for energy according to three themes: energy generated by Heat, Light and Movement.
Each story contains clean cut, graphic, dynamic and precise lines, as if underscored with a stroke of pencil or eyeliner. All the colours are contrasting, framed, with black and white. We play with different stripes and cuts, like the architect Le Corbusier or the painter Buren. And with streaks, brush strokes, lines in movement and sleek effects like the painters Yves Klein and Soulage, or with calligraphy.
HEAT
A vital source of energy for everyone. We immediately think of the heat of the sun, which turns skin and landscapes brown.
LIGHT
The energy of a bright, electric, warm or cold light. Synonymous with parties! A source of joy and good humour.
MOVEMENT
Another source of well-being and energy, sport, action, movement. Round lines. Graceful and dynamic gestures. Traces of movement like brush strokes.
