A work wear and "works over wear" project using second hand and repurposed fabrics, all sold as limited runs or one off editions. Always unisex. All items are handmade with care from our home in the Cévennes, in the south of France.
This project was born from a desire to work more with our hands and be closer to the process of creation. After being confronted with the lack of transparency in the production of our clothing today and the loss of the real value of these material goods, we wanted to change how we consume. We started to collect old fabrics to repurpose into pieces that we use daily, with a particular love for those marked with age and repairs. I always appreciated that their lifespan had been extended thanks to the value that was placed on simple every day items. Notably tea towels, handed down from a great grandmother, carefully repaired and with embroidered initials in the corners.
We manage this alongside a small herd of goats and a fromagerie where we create fresh cheese to sell locally. All the pieces I create, we use on a daily basis. Everything is tested in real life and if we wouldn't use it or wear it, I wouldn't make it. This project is an occasion to share a little piece of a lifestyle we are working to build here. I want the clothes I create to be used as they are meant to be: to get dirty and ‘work’ as hard as we do.

Then when they start to show signs of wear, I hope they will be loved and repaired just as we would have done with the tea towel.
