Each piece of the twelve silhouettes from the first collection "Lore Genesis" is an ode to modularity. Luxurious textiles meet deconstructed designs that can be reassembled for a unique silhouette. A methodology akin to Character Design rooted in the world of Heroic Fantasy. Like in a video game, each silhouette is the result of a reconstruction of wardrobe pieces, orchestrated by its player in a quest for identity.
This philosophy is embodied through a series of meticulous choices, ranging from the tailoring structure and workwear comfort to the delicacy of sewing and the versatility of jersey. The HILDEGARD T-shirts and sweatshirts offer transformable elements between sleeves and shoulders. The draped BAHAMUT shirts feature adjustable fastenings, while the FENRIR jumpsuits have detachable elements at strategic points. The adaptability of a silk RAGNAROK dress allows its transformation into an elegant top. The signature accessory, KRAKEN chaps, available in a variety of styles, seamlessly integrate into tailored pants or gabardine jumpsuits. Material choice is crucial and influences the construction of each piece for timeless silhouettes. The collection highlights an eclectic mix of materials, from suiting fabrics to luxurious felts and denims. On one hand, ready-to-wear pieces are made from high-quality fabrics from dormant stocks, provided by Nona Source; on the other, the collection features meticulously detailed couture pieces adorned with handmade chainmail.
The 12 outfits from the "Lore Genesis" collection are presented through an immersive installation. A staging conceived with Affaire à Suivre Studio as a theatrical epic at the intersection of Fassbinder’s "Querelle" and the cinematics of "Final Fantasy", drawing on the work of Corentin Darré, a contemporary artist from the French queer scene. Reeds, arrows, mud, smoke, vinyl curtain, and blazing sun come to life to the rhythm of the specially created soundtrack by Studio Ingmar.
