Atelier

The Atelier collection features 16 designs and three design themes – Textile, Mineral and Gravure – each of them inspired by the passions of Monsieur Christian Lacroix. Having clear references to fashion, the Textile designs are created from a personal archive of ethnic and foreign fabrics transformed into patterns of patchwork, velvet draping and paisleys being one of Monsieur Christian Lacroix’s favourite design elements through all times. Fascinated by collecting stones, Monsieur Christian Lacroix brings the beauty of this natural element into the collection in the Mineral design theme embracing beautiful mosaics of beach stones, chaussé stones and quarry tiles. Finally, Gravure features fantasy engraving motifs inspired by monuments from Monsieur Christian Lacroix’s home town, 1900 century fashion with birds and butterflies as well as mountain landscapes in Provence.
