The Presentation:

The notion of contact was the guideline for the A/W 2001/02 collection. The presentation took place in the bright underground hallway of the Centre Pompidou, where the glass elevators were an indispensable part of the spectacle. Also several microphones were spread over the entire space and when approaching one of them, the models‚ music was broadcast over the main speakers creating a bizarre mix of ongoing background music and musical fragments.

The Collection:

“…providing with a dense tapestry of sumptuous images that go some way towards restoring our sense of the dignity and integrity of a generation which is so frequently represented only in banal clichés and stereotypes.”
