Spring going on Summer
Art x Outfit Edit #37 Finally, after literal MONTHS of rain in the French capital, the sun seems to be settling back. For how long you ask? Well, let’s be delusional and say: for a decent amount of time. Whatever, this sun has made me excited for the Summer to come and has me daydreaming…
Kering, on two different schedules?
In late April, Kering released its quarterly earnings for the first three months of 2024, and it is not as pretty as its houses’ designs… The economic slowdown currently unfolding has touched most of the fashion and luxury industry, with some notable winners in Hermès or even the Prada group.

Art x Outfit Edit #36 Jean Hélion is an important figure of the French 1930s avant-garde.

From Lee’s Point of View
Art x Outfit Edit #33 A few months ago, walking through the Asian aisle of the Met, I stumbled upon one of Lee Ufan’s work. The Korean artist is a key member of the Japanese Mono-ha movement, born in the 1960s. Mono-ha means “School of Things” and the aesthetic value rejects Western modern art standards. Specifically…
Jacquemus’ Sculptures
This blog covers the intersection of art and luxury, so, of course, I could not not cover the last show of the prodigy child of French “pop luxury”, as labelled by the designer himself.
