--01 How is Paris nowadays?

Paris is exciting. There is no other city (in Europe at least) with the same energy.

I used to live “a bit” all over the world, always looking for my place. 

I found it in Paris. Paris is the perfect balance between lifestyle, work, and people. 

You can easily exchange your ideas pushing your creativity to imagine your future (not that common thing today). Paris is a compromise that doesn’t have a compromise. 

 

If you work in fashion you have to be in Paris.

--02 Where is your happy place/sanctuary in Paris and why?

Fondation Cartier and Musée Carnavalet are my sanctuary.

 

I love to experience art in its different forms, getting lost in history and celebrating the contemporary scene. It’s the metaphor of my relationship with the City, and with myself.

--03 What do you think is the most interesting creative scene in the city right now?

There is a new ferment in all the fields (mainly after the COVID19 situation). 

 

It's something that envelops you, literally. Design is interesting. Cinema and music are having a new input, after a few lacklustre years. But fashion is the most disruptive one, definitely. Fashion is a catalyst of attention and an engine of attraction for talented young people capable of giving constant impetus to the sector. It’s very unique.

--04 What are 3 places in Paris (bars, clubs, restaurants, stores...) you would bring a friend visiting you to?

Le Collier de la Reine or Hôtel National Des Arts et Métiers (the rooftop) for drinks.

OJII for foood.

La Mongolfière for sport. 

Small bookshops in the heart of Marais for shopping.

 

I said four, sorry.

--05 What is something you believe Paris is currently missing?

 

What is absolutely missing is a fashion nightclub, something as iconic as the pitied Petit Palace.
