Catherine Deneuve? How did this collaboration come about?
It came about quite naturally, because we’ve know each other as neighbors for maybe 15 years. I live near the A.P.C. studio in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, and I think she literally lives 400 yards from there. I bump into her on the street, and she’s become a very regular customer in our store.She doesn’t have any technical knowledge, but she has a lot of intuition about fabrics and cuts—she has spent quite a lot of time around the Saint Laurent atelier over the years for fittings.
She just gave sentences that we had to translate into a design and into a pattern. For example, she would say, “The jacket should look like aand have a narrow shoulder and high waist.” That’s all. That’s maybe seven words. It could be interpreted in quite a few ways, but I knew exactly what she meant.I love minimalism, but I also wanted there to be another layer to the collection. So we talked about her animals. She has quite a few very special animals.
