Interview

Discover the stylist’s inspirations, passion for fashion and his Parisian addresses. To read the interview in its entirety and to view the numerous photos by Mademoiselle Le K, click here.

“While Gaspard describes his ’super Parisian and enough contemporary’ fashion approach, his hands play with the shoe’s heels of the next woman collection…

(Gaspard) ‘I got involved in Fashion business naïve and totally free. Imposing a language, an identity. Creating a sense between spirit and body: redefining the fashion ‘cliché’, a link between the establishment and the traditional. The philosophy of our brand is: item is a day mate. Today the approach is more and more elaborated. It’s sexy, but a real item. The first man collection was developed from the woman collection’s foundations. But all collections exits regardless of the others.’”
