JULIEN DOSSENA, ARTISTIC DIRECTOR OF THE HOUSE OF
PACO RABANNE WILL BE THE PRESIDENT OF THE FASHION JURY
THE HOUSE OF PACO RABANNE IS THE GUEST OF HONOUR
AT THE INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF FASHION AND
PHOTOGRAPHY IN HYÈRES.
Born in Brittany in 1982, Julien Dossena grew up between the
village of Pouldu in the Finistère region, Berlin and the South
of France. After his baccalaureate in 2000, he studied at the
Ecole d’Arts Appliqués Duperré in Paris, then at La Cambre, an
internationally recognized school in Brussels specialized in the
world of art and design, from 2002 to 2007.
While still a student, he was awarded the Special Prize of the
Jury and the 1.2.3 Prize at the Festival International de la Mode of
Hyères in 2006.
In 2008, he joined the Runway Studio at Balenciaga as Senior
Designer, working side by side with Nicolas Ghesquière. He stayed
there until the latter departed in 2012, and then launched his
own ready-to-wear brand, Atto. In July 2013, after being named
Artistic Director of Paco Rabanne, he renewed and relaunched
their women’s ready-to-wear, that had run out of steam since the
departure of founder Paco Rabanne in 1999. Deeply anchored
in his era, Julien Dossena has successful managed to combine
experimental research, inspired by the history of the Paco Rabanne
house, along with his vision of a resolutely contemporary fashion
statement, adapted to the daily life of today’s urban women.

STILLS
NEW
The festival decides to open the field of possibilities in photography
by asking the ten finalists to take two still lifes with fashion
accessories.
Photographs published in the catalog will be presented at the
festival and may be subjects for a special price.
STILLS & STYLES
The history of art and its market, simultaneously designating
photography as an artistic expression and a marketable object,
quickly forgot the contribution of important photographic authors
to the uses for which the medium was employed, whether it was
a question of fashion or advertising photography. And yet, from
Man Ray to Irving Penn, via Diane Arbus, Germaine Krull and
recently Philip-Lorca diCorcia, numerous artist photographers
have irted with applied photography. Within these con ned
consignments, creating photographs that are often countercurrent
to the policed images of glossy paper pages, its authors — and
their commissioners — have contributed in awakening a visual
environment that was drowsy and replete with innumerable
conventions.
The festival thus takes up the role of commissioner, with its constant
desire of engaging creative conversations between fashion and
photography. Hence it has asked the ten competing photographers
to create a still life. This is the rst time that most of them will have
studied a fashion accessory of their choice in order to create a
portrait, each in their own way. Here are ten inhabited still lifes.

PACO RABANNE
WORK IN PROGRESS

Since his appointment in 2013,
the young French designer
Julien Dossena has sparked a
quiet revolution at the house
of Paco Rabanne – one that
has evolved our contemporary
fashion dialogue whilst paying
reverent homage to the man
himself. Mr. Rabanne (1934
- present) was a polymath
creator, whose legacy reaches
beyond prét-à-porter to
encompass a rich artistic career
that projected the progressive
image of a liberated modern
woman that still resounds
decades later. Trained as
an architect, his sculptural
creations held little precedent
in the field of fashion, renowned
as they were for a melange
of unexpected materials
and linear forms balanced
by a flair for racy silhouettes
and forward-thinking
glamour. Having started his
fashion career in 1961 with
a collection of accessible
plastic accessories including
bangles, statement earrings,
and foot jewels, Rabanne took
an unconventional route to
dressing women – unconcerned
with the demure couture
traditions of the passing
decade and more interested
in breaking the boundaries of
fabric research and streamlined
modern shapes. He integrated
materials like panels of linked
‘rhodoid’ metal (not sewn with
needle and thread but worked
with pliers), and moulded Giffo
plastic into his collections the former chainmail dresses
becoming an iconic heirloom
of the house. Today their spirit
is translated each season
under Dossena’s deft hand, in
sophisticated new propositions,
from baroque floral print
mesh to racy colour-blocked
separates. It was with that
same innovative spirit that Paco
Rabanne engaged his vibrant
circle of artistic friends as
collaborators during his lifetime
– from his family’s embroidery
atelier to the visionary minds
of the surrealist artist Salvador
Dalì and photographer Jean
Clemmer. Together they
explored his aesthetic universe,
which perpetuated a sensual
yet Brutalist perspective on the
cold futurism of the day.
Fast-forward to 2016 and
that same collective attitude
defines Dossena’s cerebral
approach to the house; a cast
of creative luminaries from
Paris and beyond surrounds
him, each complementing his
collections with their diverse
talents in the fields of image
making and beyond. From the
styling talent of Marie-Amelie
Sauve to photographers like
Patrick Demarchelier, Coco
Capitan, Maurice Scheltens &
Liesbeth Abbenes, the artist
David De Beyter and the
architects Kersten Geers &
David Van Severen, Dossena’s
new guard of European talents
spans both disciplines and
generations – their balance
of raw and refined aesthetics
enriching the world of Paco
Rabanne with a fresh and
youthful sophistication. Central
to that world are Dossena’s
ready-to-wear designs, which in
two short years have set a new
precedent for modern luxury
and wearability for the house.
In the span of ten collections
a distinct through line of
athletic elegance has emerged;
Dossena’s expert touch
bringing a new effortlessness to
the sculptural house codes by
intertwining a delicate balance
of structure and ‘flou’.
Criss-crossing elements of
evening and sportswear,
Dossena’s collections have
succeeded by remaining
inspired yet not thematic,
drawing from an array of global
influences from streetwear to
Japonisme whilst respecting
a real-world, urban appeal.
Zipped jersey, second-skin
knitwear, transparent and
soft metallic textiles have
become crucial elements
in his pragmatic designs.
Often paired with flat hybrid
shoe styles, they allude to
the sensual, down-to-earth
sophistication that defines
Paco Rabanne today.

LIGHT METAL MUSIC
BRUME SONORE #2
© Keffer
Pigeon house and
garden, villa Noailles
To mark the inauguration of the festival, Julien Dossena invites
Jackson to perform on the forecourt of the villa Noailles. Featuring
a collection of designed electro-acoustic instruments, this concert
will be based on the sound of resonating metal sheets and vibrant
bodies. Entitled Light Metal Music, this project came to life at
IRCAM (Centre Pompidou) and continued its path for a series
of performances at the Venice Biennale of Art 2015, and for the
French gallery Kamel Mennour. Currently pursuing his research on
the hybridisation of different mediums at the villa Medici in Rome,
Jackson’s music is built upon the relationships between gesture
and the perception of vibratory phenomena.
Jackson is also exhibiting his work Brume Sonore #2 in the villa’s
dovecot. This sculptural device takes us to a space in which the
physical nature of light shapes the flow of a generative sound.
A beam of diffracted light crosses a cloud of water particles
which reveals the colours of the spectrum of light. Founded
upon a spectral analogy, this process rests upon a conversion of
wavelengths in the visible domain into a sound signal.
Together, the vibratory phenomena enter into a resonance with
the senses and the nature of the device, because the sound
generated is amplified and reflected by a mirrored metal resonator.
The vibrations produced by the metal, whose surface has allowed
for the light to be projected in the moving vapour, reproduces the
frequencies of colour.

WILLIAM KLEIN
+ POLLY MAGGOO
squash court, villa Noailles
William Klein, « Cabine et Mannequins, Op-Art », Qui êtes-vous Polly Maggoo?, 1965
The equation, William Klein + Polly Maggoo, is sheer alchemy.
1966. Roll titles: the words “Who are you, Polly Maggoo?” appear,
blinking, and get closer, worrisomely closer. Right from the start the
question posed seems visceral, urgent. No visuals, yet already we
make out the sound of clashing sheet-metal and footsteps amid
background noise. And the action starts without delay for time is
short and space, lacking. Backstage a whole mechanism is getting
ready to run behind the black curtain of the titles sequence.
Close-up: an ovalface held within a lens constitute by the “o” in Polly.
Immediate and unmediated, hands shift, words are exchanged. The
backstage environment, it seems, is that of a fashion runway.
In this manner, starting with that first and legendary scene, the
film becomes an unsurpassed and visionary satire of the world of
fashion. Yet the filmic personality of Who are you, Polly Maggoo? is
far more complex than such a hasty summary can convey. Polly is
polymorphous, polysemic. Polly is everywhere.
Polly is both a fashion icon and, under that wig, behind her jet-black
eyes, a very young woman, wellturned out as she says, and open;
all rabbit teeth and freckles. Maggoo is McGowan, first name
Dorothy; lead actor of the film, fashion model by trade. On top of all
this she’s Klein’s accomplice: Klein, the fashion photographer. So
she’s a model, this Polly McGowan or Dorothy Maggoo, evolving
between the four walls of a tiny hotel room on one hand, the vast
breadth of Paris’s great boulevards on the other. She strolls from
runway to photo shoot (we catch a passing glimpse of Richard
Avedon, of Louis Faurer, playing themselves) and sees herself
becoming object rather than subject of a TV show dissecting the
life of “people,” as well as the fantasy of Prince Igor.

Intimacy of art with nature
... an unexpected visual encounter leafing through an imaginary

... the discovery of a painter who is sensitive and inhabited by a
dreamlike universe where nature is at the heart of his work.
Strength and fragility meet one another, plentiful nature is faced
with geometrical and mineral structures which paradoxically

Forming Synchrony, 2016
He titles his works simply as “Current Studies”, each is then
accompanied with a hash and a number. Hence, they are study
pieces. Their purpose? To picture that which habitually escapes
photography, to grasp the impermanent and the invisible: the
movement of air. The image is thus the result of the experiments
conducted between the four walls of Sjoerd Knibbeler’s studio.
Nothing is complicated in the materials and instruments used: PVC,
paper, glass and wood are associated with fans, vacuum cleaners
and other familiar machines which create a flow of air. With
Forming Synchrony, the image thus pictures movement, the fingers
spread out, wrists untie themselves and heads, eyes closed, slowly
outline circles in the air. In the video, we see the pilots of the
Patrouille de France, in formation within a large hangar in the south
of France, in Salon-de-Provence, sit upon basic stools, wearing
their sky-blue jumpsuits, and practice their routine. At the heart of
this work, is another impermanent and invisible phenomenal, which
Sjoerd Knibbeler endeavours to translate as an image: desire, that
of being in the air, of finally flying.
Forming Synchrony was created during Sjoerd Knibbeler’s personal
exhibition at the thirty-first International Festival of Fashion and
Photography in Hyères.
Sjoerd Knibbeler was the winner of the Grand Prix du jury
Photographie at the festival in 2015. He is a graduate of the Royal
Academy of Art, the Hague, he has recently exhibited at FOAM
(Amsterdam), Espace Quai 1 (Vevey), Nederlands Fotomuseum
(Rotterdam), and at Paris Photo, with his critically acclaimed
book Planes editions FW:Books Amsterdam (2015) as part of the

Réalisé Par Körnerunion
The smart set
Or the art of dancing elegance impertinently. The work of the duo
Carine Charaire and Olivier Casamayou, choreographers, artistic
directors and producers, under the name I could never be a dancer,
create energetic video clips for atmospheric events for fashion
houses, from an artistic scene in a museum to the choreographic
signature of advertising campaigns, the same light, lively and
irreverent attitude.
(...)
Thus to create a “retrospective” for this exhibition at the villa
Noailles, is to treat I could never be a dancer’s series as a single
investigation: an open and confident prospective, a dialogue
between fashion, contemporary art and dance, and the relevance
of creating an elasticity between these domains. Significantly,
their propositions, ephemeral dance and editorial performances
with long choreographies, test the experience and the eye of the
spectator: surprising through discrete virtuosity, without fear of
diversion, augmenting the real without suffocating or recanting it,
chanting the poetry of a calligram, where the idea of pleasure felt
almost validates the danced movement.
An idea of style therefore, with a typically French attitude, the
glamour of a certain new wave too, that of Jacques Demi, an
uncomplacent tradition which, between a musical and a conceptual
performance, offers a quality of atmosphere full of spirit and
impetuosity — a minor transgression which tickles rather than
assaults or asserts. Ultimately, an idea of fashion, which is not
without recalling the intelligence of Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
and d’Elsa Schiaparelli to summon the important elements of the
period, of pop culture, and to create sufficient signs which crystallise
a style, a means of being, a danced appeal. On air, just in time.

For several years now, I have photographed people in the flow of
everyday life who are close to me: friends, lovers, couples. The
series is called Mes frères.
For the festival, I suggested Notre été to the villa Noailles: a
selection of images linked to holidays, warmth, the languor of
desire, in the towns of southern France, in the Maghreb and the
islands of the Mediterranean. On the same theme, this series is
also enriched with images taken on the Île du Levant.
In contrast to these solar images, are those of the night, a series
on clubbing in Paris, a long-term project: La galaxie de l’amour

Vent Moderne, 2015, film Hd, noir et blanc, 27’39’’
Photo Stéphane Perche © Veilhan © Mallet-Stevens / ADAGP Paris, 2016
Xavier Veilhan maintains a close relationship with architecture,
as his project Architectones (2012-2014) bears witness. Within
the context of a proposal for the Cinéma en plein air du parc
de la Villette festival (Paris), he created a film which plays with
perspectives, scale, and the ties between décor and architecture.
The sequences are articulated around the character of a concept
developer, an artist, an architect, for which the actor Micha Lescot
lends his features. Vent Moderne stages a succession of fantasised
moments of the protagonist’s life: times for architectural design, for
meetings, for travels, for festive and pleasurable moments. A more
abstract dimension is added to this narrative aspect: a succession
of visual evocations amongst which the spectator finds their own
path.
“The film was never really written, but rather drawn. Its scenes
were shot like animated tableaux, its narration is constructed
around pre-existing sequences. The shoot was the moment of
capturing these instants which the action drives and, following a
documentary mindset, room was left for improvisation, or rather for
the evolution of the predefined situations.” (Xavier Veilhan)
Vent Moderne is a film by Xavier Veilhan.
Concept devised with Alexis Bertrand and Violeta Kreimer.
Produced by Dimitri Chamblas and Amélie Couillaud.
With (e.a.) Micha Lescot and Stephen Thompson.
Music and sound design: Pierre Avia, Florian Sumi, Yujim. Choreography: Dimitri Chamblas.
Production: Atelier Xavier Veilhan. Coproduction: La Villette, eXorde (Collection Casoar).

Photographie de tournage et de photogrammes de La Perle, tirages originaux, 1929.
Since its inauguration, in 2010, the permanent exhibition Charles
and Marie-Laure de Noailles, a life as patrons devotes its displays
to shedding light on the life and works of this couple. From the
middle of the 1920s until the end of the 19060s, they assisted
artists and intellectuals, acting in order to promote all forms of
modern and avant garde art: cinema, literature, music, architecture
and even ethnography. Through specific themes, or by focusing
on a particular person close to the Noailles, a temporary exhibition
always defines more precisely the extent of their actions. Often
mentioned, Georges Hugnet takes the place of honour in the Salon
Rose, from February 10 until 5 June.
Defining Georges Hugnet (1906-1974) as an unclassifiable travelling
companion for the intellectual and artistic adventures of the 20th
Century, an essential witness and a faithful friend to Marie-Laure
de Noailles, constitutes a necessary prerequisite, even if it is
insufficient. A poet with scissors, anthologist, scriptwriter, editor
on a mountain, sketcher on table cloths, bookseller, unrepentant
collagist, painter of stones, resistant, inventor of objects,
bookbinder on bark and first historian of the Dada movement,
the life of this genius jack of all trades is full of brilliances. Of
this brilliance, the history of cinema has retained that of La Perle
[The Pearl], a jewel of a surrealist film, shot in 1929. This film
would serve as his most famous feat of arms, because, contrary
to his friends Picasso, Miró, Gertrude Stein, Éluard, Max Jacob,
Giacometti and Cocteau, his modesty and his faithfulness to
his ideals earnt him a place in the shadows. The difficulty of
summarising an œuvre that is in a class of its own accentuated
this obscurity. Hugnet wrote on his ex-libris : “Mieux vaut plus tôt”
[Better Sooner]. It is not too late therefore to read, to discover, the
life and works of he who said that he was first and foremost a poet.

“Beirut, town of fictions. Behind tinted and lowered windows, she
puts on a scene. The spectacle starts at the plane with a long,
astonishing tracking shot, visible to only a handful of passengers,
whilst the indigo sea extends the other side. Each trip I tried to
sit on the best side of the plane, but the view changed according
to the flights and timetable. Even during these missed aerial
encounters, Beirut revealed itself as sumptuous in its duality;
between presence and absence, light and darkness.
A Mediterranean science fiction landscape for which I was incapable
of saying whether relics dated from the past or the future.
Amongst these, the Holiday Inn, the Egg, the Grand Théâtre and
the surrounding architectures, décors that are worthy of Blade
Runner, bathed in pink light. I remember the first time I crossed the
avenue which leads to Rafic Hariri airport in the middle of town, the
atmosphere was electric, charged with urgency and nostalgia. A
few kilometres to the north or the south, conflicts were still on the
lookout. At the same time, Beirut danced in defiance of the depths
of despair, like an elegant figure heading straight forward into the
uproar of History.”

Barrie, 2015
“Scottish light is almost supernatural. Dramatic from one moment
to the next, subdued or brilliant, its main quality is that it invites
a reflection on the passing of time. Filming there, is to commune
with a perpetually evolving nature, to the extent where everything
becomes a spectacle, theatrical and ritual.
This commission from Barrie allowed me to observe how, beyond
its aesthetic, Scottish nature is intrinsically tied to a savoir faire,
allowing for the flourishing of a long tradition. The cashmere begins
its journey in Asia but comes to fruition in Scotland, in part due to
the quality of the water in its rivers. I appreciated the demanding
path which this noble material requires, this search for supreme
quality, a quest for the impossible — and I wanted to be a part of it.”

The ensemble twinset is coordinated. Taken separately, the

interchangeable elements according to an assorted palette. She
reasserts the major themes of her style which enthused the jury
last year. Of note, are the straight shoulders which construct the
entirety of the body, the skirts and apron dresses are tied in the
back, and the superimpositions and linings are exposed.
Each composition tends to reveal the character of a material
through the nuance which expresses it the best. The fabrics and
knits are fashioned out of a range of treatments which allow
them to express all of their potential. Silk, cashmere and wool
are stiffened by being bonded together, then embroidered with
translucent stones or marked with pleats. Plissé fabric is used to
transform the material’s structure and to modify its volume.
La précision des coupes confère une ligne claire à chaque The
precision of cut confers a clean line where each outline can
be read as mirrored, like the blending of two possibilities. The
designer pays homage to the manufacturers and craftspeople who
produce these exceptional fabrics and knits. She underlines this
sumptuousness which opens up an infinite number of combinations
by guiding the gaze towards the materials.

COULD IT BE THAT

Stairs, villa Noailles
Photo : Claire Lavabre, 2016
In her work on mirrors, Claire Lavabre focuses on the visual
experience of reflections. The installation Could it be that it’s
just an illusion questions perception and exposes some of the
possibilities of reflections.
The first mirror presents a reflection which is modified thanks to the
shaping of the reflective material and according to the placement
of the spectator and the orientation of their gaze. This mirror is
the result of the joining together of three brass panels, curved and
then chromed. On the flat surfaces of this mirror, the perception of
the reflection is the same as that obtained with a traditional mirror,
whereas it evolves and distorts at the point where the folds are
formed by the curve. For the second mirror also with three panels,
two reflective surfaces are placed one opposite the other. A light
source is inserted in order to create an optical illusion. When it is
switched off, this mirror has a normal appearance. Once lit, the
play of light and its multiple reflections create the illusion of a
deep space contained within the interior of the object. This image
reflected to infinity fuses with a luminous horizon.

Structural Skin. Photo : Humberto Ribes
Discovered during a trip to Japan in 2014, the exhibition is inspired
by boro: a traditional Japanese folk textile. This fabric represents
two essential principles of Japanese culture, mottainai a term that
conveys a deep sense of regret concerning waste and borobor
which celebrates the beauty in something frayed, decaying or
repaired, demonstrating a vast esteem for our available resources,
labour and everyday objects.
The exhibition is based on Structural Skin — a self-produced
material made out of leftovers from the leather industry. In this
case, the objective was to go a step further and create a flat
surface rather than the original leather slats, investigating new
potential applications for this innovative material. Starting from the
idea of a visual system for a larger collection, this mirror consists
of basic geometrical shapes derived from circles and rectangles.
The colours depend upon the contributions of his partners. The raw
material used for these pieces come from offcuts and remnants
from the French fashion house Hermès, Petit h.
The designer adopts an attitude which is consistently dissident
and bears an increasing interest on the intangible aspects of his
discipline, he explores areas that transcend conventional design.
Being receptive to unorthodox ideas allows him to obtain nonstandard outcomes, opening up alternative opportunities with
regards to a more responsible social, cultural, economical, political
and intellectual context.

Created in 2001 following an initiative led by Didier Grumbach, this
international gathering is organised as part of the festival. It unites
both managerial and creative professionals as well as experts on
current and future affairs; it provides the opportunity for a very
open exchange with the public.
Four key moments will take place within the event this year. The
first is devotedto what has been agreed upon as called “Fashion
Tech”, in the form of a round table. The accent is placed upon
the digital revolution which has overwhelmed all facets of fashion
and its industry, from social networks to organisation, from
consumption to creation. The round table might also rely upon
the work of a student think tank which has been assembled for
this purpose. The digital image is omnipresent on social networks
and inhabits our everyday. Where is its artistic vocation and how
does this manifest itself? Can it attest itself in keeping with what
fashion photography has always been? This will be the subject of
a second round table. A third meeting is devoted to sustainable
development, which has become a major stake for the planet and
its future. Numerous stakeholders in fashion are greatly implicated
worldwide, supported by collective initiatives, as will be illustrated
through various testimonies. A master class will also be organised,
modelled on the one held in 2015 with Karl Lagerfeld who was
president of the festival jury. The baton this year has been passed
to Julien Dossena, artistic director at the Paco Rabanne fashion
house and president of the 2016 jury.
Finally, two workshops will put into perspective, on the one hand
the work of this year’s competing photographers, and on the other
hand the collections of theFormers, ten designers who have taken
part in past festivals.

CHANEL
CHANEL is the major partner in the 31st International Festival of
Fashion and Photography in Hyères and the principal sponsor of
the permanent exhibition of Charles et Marie- Laure de Noailles,
une vie de mécènes, at the villa Noailles.
As part of this collaboration, CHANEL provides support for the
festival’s fashion activities as the official partner of the makeup
cabin for the festival’s fashion shows. In addition to this, the prizewinner of the Grand Prix of the Jury Première Vision will have the
opportunity to undertake a project with CHANEL’s Métiers d’Art
united under Paraffection that will finance the development of
silhouettes in its ateliers with the value of 15.000 euros. On top of
this, CHANEL supports the Photography Grand Prix of the Jury,
where the prize-winner will receive a donation of 15,000 euros.
The CHANEL partnership with the Hyères Festival, a festival that
encourages and champions young designers within the fields
of fashion and photography, is part of an on-going process as
creation is the very heart and soul of CHANEL. An autodidact and
visionary, Mademoiselle Chanel created a particular style over
a hundred years ago. This style became a brand and a name of
renown appreciated the world over. All the products bearing its
name from Ready-to-Wear and Haute Couture, to accessories,
fragrances and beauty, Watchmaking and Fine Jewellery, together
constitute a totality where all the brand values are found: luxury,
creativity, innovation, audacity, modernity, femininity, highest
quality and best know-how. Most notably are those of the Métiers
d’art at Paraffection: embroiderers Lesage and Montex, feather
and flower maker Lemarié, pleater Lognon, shoe maker Massaro
and hat maker Maison Michel, all supply the top names in Haute
Couture and the luxury industry.
A brand constantly on the move, each CHANEL collection along
with the staging and decor is conceived by Karl Lagerfeld to create
an event which spans all continents. The photographic and cultural
exhibitions showcasing brand icons and the historical and creative
dimensions of the House are significant milestones. ‘I want to be
part of what happens,‘ Mademoiselle Chanel took great pleasure
in saying. Through this collaboration with the International Festival
of Fashion and Photography in Hyères, CHANEL demonstrates
its wish for openness towards different creative worlds, and once
again reaffirms its commitment to creativity and avant-garde.

Première Vision Paris brings brands and designers looking
for creative, high-quality collections together with selected
international companies that number among the most innovative in
the fashion industry.
The event is both a business appointment and also an exceptional
source of inspiration. The fashion information areas provide an
overview of the season's trends and directions, and showcase key
products.
One of Première Vision's goals is also to support creativity and
showcase know-how through strong, committed undertakings. For
the past seven years, the "PV Awards" have been honouring the
weavers' most remarkable and inventive creations. Since 2015,
exceptional leathers are also awarded a prize.
6 and 7 July, Première Vision will propose in Paris a new concept,
a show dedicated to the launch of the autumn winter 2017-18
collection: Blossom Première Vision, the season opening.
Conceived to align with the dates of the season’s earliest
collections (the pre-collections), and as a complement to the
calendar of Première Vision Paris, which targets main collections,
the show will offer creative luxury and premium fashion brands
two days of inspiration. This event will be the ideal place to start

commitment towards contemporary creation. The promotion of
fashion and young creation is an essential part of the Group’s
history. Aware of its leading role in the economic development
of new talents, the Galeries Lafayette group strives to support
creativity and inspiration, the very cornerstones of the fashion

Historically engaged in the promotion of fashion, the Group is
today an important intermediary between young artists and a wider

NINA RICCI
Perpetuating a tradition upheld since its creation, the House of
Nina Ricci is proud to announce that it will support young creative
talents at the Hyères 31st International Festival of Fashion and
Photography.
The House of Nina Ricci was founded in 1932 by Robert Ricci
for his mother, at 20 rue des Capucines, in Paris. An advertising
executive as well as a co-founder of Studios Harcourt, the young
Ricci spearheaded development for the family business while his
mother focused on designing Haute Couture.
A man of taste, Robert Ricci was savvy about partnering up with
other top Couture talents over the years, from Jules-François
Crahay to Gérard Pipart. In recent years, Olivier Theyskens, Peter
Copping and, since 2015, Guillaume Henry were successively
appointed Creative Director of the House.
Robert Ricci’s aesthetic sensibility also resulted in numerous
collaborations with prestigious artists, including his friend Marc
Lalique and the illustrators Dimitri Bouchène and Christian Bérard.
Many contemporary artists have also contributed to building
the brand's image. Works have been inspired by the House and
created either for special events or as window-dressing for the
Avenue Montaigne flagship and other iconic addresses such as the
American luxury goods department store Bergdorf Goodman.
Andy Warhol, Daniel Buren, Larry Rivers, Sol Lewitt and the
sculptor Cesar were among those who created notable works for
the House of Nina Ricci.
Photography was also central to the House's history, not least
because the images shot by photographer David Hamilton for over
20 years will remain forever engraved in collective memory. Today
the work of Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, to whom the
Festival dedicated a retrospective in 2012, illustrated the brand's
latest advertising campaigns.

ELIE SAAB
Born in Beirut in 1964, at the age of nine Elie Saab was already
spending much of his free time cutting patterns and drawing
sketches and by the age of 18 he had opened his own couture
atelier.

inspiration from both Paris and Beirut, where his ateliers of
craftsmen are based. He first launched his eponymous label with
an haute couture line, expanding soon after into ready-to-wear
and accessories – with each collection reflecting a natural, radiant
attitude of modern femininity. As an art enthusiast, Elie Saab is passionate about design in all its
forms: from fashion and sculpture to architecture and photography.

of Fashion and Photography at Hyères, France. The magnificent
1920s Villa Noailles will again form the backdrop for the 31st
edition, set to be held from April 21–25, 2016. Swarovski, long
dedicated to aiding the creative virtuosos of tomorrow, has been a
supporter of this annual event since 2009. Ten finalists from each

director, will serve as president of the fashion jury, which includes

next great name in fashion. After all, past winners have included

to a generous assortment of crystals for use in their designs to
be presented in three catwalk shows. In its quest to demonstrate
the unmatched versatility of crystal as an inspirational ingredient,
