Its story
I had a real crush on this practical wallet model, named “En Ville”, whether in its Mini version or its regular version like here, to the point that I made several copies, including for myself, which rarely happens.
Soft colors and materials, to accompany you in style during high-powered meetings or shopping trips.
“Mille Toffees” is a collection created especially for the exhibition at the artistic space of CIEL (at Sivalor), focused on the upcycling of what is often considered "waste."
Remaining true to my creative approach inspired by textile upcycling and the sublimation of memories, I crafted this "Mille Toffees" collection from a thrifted goat leather trench coat that seemed to have lived a beautiful life and deserved a second one. I paired it with cotton fabric scraps entrusted by a client for her custom order.
This collection speaks of resilience, longevity, and love, themes embodied by the Ginkgo Biloba.
Ideal for Valentine's Day, and more. Its soft and warm tones, variety of shapes, will elegantly accompany you in your daily life.
Pair it with any other in this collection.
