Mazarine is inspired by a story to which she adds a surrealist touch. This season, Mazarine is freely inspired by the myth of Pygmalion, a sculptor who creates his own statues, including Galatee. The statues come to life. Mazarine is inspired by the myth of Pygmalion.
For over a year, the Mazarine team has been busy, just for fun, working in drawing, painting, still life, with the Mazarine drawing club.
There is something enchanting about the creative process, where what we imagine or not quite yet, comes to life.
It is also the theme of the myth of Pygmalion that gives life to his sculpture, galatea. this research also illustrates the artistic interests, beyond fashion, of the design studio whose other activities are united under the name of "Bleu Paris".
This spring-summer 2022 collection is inspired by the creative process, from the sewing workshops but also from the artists' studios, from the blank canvas, the canvas on which the models come to life.
Imagining that a totem becomes a collection silhouette, The fabric turns into a dress, gives a dreamlike vision of the creation of a collection.
This collection mixes ready-to-wear and tailored garments made for Mazarine clients in unusual materials, embroidered with pearls or buttons. The dresses are for day and evening, the volumes are bold, the details are surreal and the colors, cognac, spotted blue dark green, beige and black, unexpected.
For this season, Thomas Dufour and Helene Timsit directed and staged the Mazarine collection video.
Like every season, Mazarine produces all of its clothes in France and gives a second life to fabric stock from the big houses. For Mazarine, there is no sustainable fashion without reasoned or even on-demand production, and Mazarine has been developing over-ordering with its clients and manufacturers for several seasons now, because this is the future of fashion.
