Restyling Stories with designer and artist Pascale Theron.
Part I of II.

A VINTAGE PIECE

In A Vintage Piece we are paying homage to our creative director’s maternal heritage on garment design, craft and sewing.

Viviana’s maternal grandmother designed and sewed dresses, embroidered, and crocheted too. She passed this tradition to her daughter, Viviana’s mother.

For this tribute, Viviana came up with the idea to restyle a clutch she got as a gift originally crafted over 20 years ago, by Carmen Calderon de la Barca Villagomez, her mother. Inspired by Pascale’s weaving and feathered art, Viviana then began reimagining the clutch as a bag with a new set of handwoven straps with feather motifs. That’s where the artisanship of Pascale joins in, weaving her signature magic to bring new life and function to the handbag.
We are thankful to Pascale Theron for making together another dream come true.

​
Part two of this adventure is coming up in the autumnal-winter season in 2025.
