Label
The label was created by Agnés Troublé in 1973. It is a global brand and surprisingly so considering the small amount of advertisement. It is shown in Paris as a RTW and is known for it's 70's vibe as well as being very French. She was born in Versailles in 1941. She was hired by ELLE as a junior editor and did several other apprenticeships before making her own line in 1973. Her first boutique opened in 1975 and went from having only friends be regulars to being a worldwide brand which is very impressive. She also is interested in film and finances various small time directors. She has also been knighted which is always pretty cool. So no disrespect, she's done amazingly well. I'm just confused as to her true style. Lets take a look at two collections, her Spring 2010 RTW and her 2011 Menswear. This is my first menswear that I'm studying, soooooo I could be missing something...
Spring 2010 RTW
So this line seemed to be organized into several catagories for me:
Midevil Princesses
Modern French Girls
Sharp Moms
Seventies
Menswear 2011
These I'm just gonna name underneath... haha
Business man
College Student
Cowboy
Dad
Janitor
Modern Newsie
Peasant
Pirate
Skater
Speedo
Urban Outfitters
Weird pants....
So I do like a lot of her stuff, especially the more modern looks and the sharp business woman suit-like things. I'm just confused by her style and audience??? Interesting.... I did enjoy my first menswear collection though!!!
See you with the next hopefully more consistent designer!
