BACKSTAGE AND RUNWAY OF MAITREPIERRE LENSED BY HUGO DI ZAZZO

The past, reimagined for the future, with his eco-innovative process, Maitrepierre is about taking what was and making it last. This collection honored nostalgia while pushing craftsmanship boundaries. Retro influences like flowing fringes and strong ‘60s silhouettes were made for bold self-expression in a new and gentle way.

This collection was all about soft texture, stiff fabrics, graphic prints, frills and stunning 3D floral adornments, using a laser cutter for the designs. The tops and coats were covered in beautifully moving frills, dresses were adorned with 3D flowers, and pants and skirts enhanced with shiny fabrics. The grand finale: A stunning gown made from 18 metres of laser cut fabric turned frills. The colors underlining the collection's theme of softness, ranged from pastel pinks, yellows and light greens to deeper greens and browns. 

The collaboration with Converse was a highlight: platform Chucks and high boots, some adorned with flowers, blending heritage with innovation. Converse being a brand we all know and love, the connection feels universal — this time, with a new story to tell.
