Description

URBAN SNEAKERS

TRENDY SANDALS

PRINTED CLUTCHES

ATTRACTIVE TOTE BAGS

After working for several years for brands of different sizes, I now focus on freelance projects. I support brands in their diversification towards footwear or an accessories range.

I can offer you particular expertise in eco-responsible, vegan, and natural fashion without compromising on aesthetics.

The process of a shoe project:

I define the style and trend positioning of your products with you, and propose models through several hand sketches and CAD. I then follow their development up to the pre-production pair. I can also guide sourcing, production countries depending on the models, and cost forecasting.

I am also an accessories stylist for leather goods, gloves, belts, scarves, and their prints. I propose trends and then sketches. After validation, I follow the prototypes through to production.

I regularly design all-over or placed patterns on demand, which I deliver with reports.

Do not hesitate to contact me to imagine your accessories, your Tote bags, your new scarves or knitwear, headbands, beanies together (all of which can easily be Made in France).

January 2020 - Today (6 years and 5 months)
Paris, France
After 20 years of fashion creations rooted in raffia, highlighting their origins and love for Madagascar, the three founding sisters of Sans Arcidet decided to inject newness.
Together, we launched the first shoe collection as well as a sparkling collection of bags and accessories to also reach a younger clientele.
Since then, we have been working on the environmental and social commitment of the workshop in Madagascar and the brand itself. I handle the sourcing of new materials, dyeing, high-end components, and passionate manufacturers/artisans.
I create the shoe collections as well as new textile product lines in collaboration with the founders.

February 2019 - December 2020 (1 year and 11 months)
This year, I had the opportunity to work with several designer brands and support them in creating their identity, their products, and the branding of their collections.

These emerging brands each have an innovative positioning, and I was able to bring them a precise style and trend vision for their target audience, a keen sense of detail and technicality, and a unique product design each time.

Achievements:
- sneakers highlighting a country, a craftsmanship
- accessories that enhance our connected devices
- eco-responsible, vegan shoes, made in Europe with a resolutely 90s-inspired spirit
- creation of prints and weaves to enrich the universe of these brands
- packaging, logos, stickers, etc...
