Artisanal fashion and couture #formodernhumans


Today, we introduce The Robe Ballon by Marc Le Bihan – from Paris.

In a fashion industry known for mass production, Marc Le Bihan’s couture stands out, like a world apart, detached from the rest. In fact, each piece of clothing is made by hand in his atelier in Paris. His exceptional artisanal work unveils a unique design through impeccable tailoring. So, it’s a true rarity for connoisseurs or free spirits.
By the way, does it make any sense to conform to this fashion industry? 

Marc Le Bihan reveals the value of excellence guiding us through timeless fashion where quality remains at its top, style is not transient, and clothes made to last. From this perspective, one meaningful garment rather than tons of disposable pieces is a choice of worth. What you get is more than what you paid.

Discover The Robe Ballon


About the design
This bi-material dress features a balloon silhouette, and its under-knee length gives a beautiful proportion. See-through mesh sleeves contrasting a Prince of Wales fabric. Also, it combines a boat neckline on one side with a round neckline on the opposite. Two side slip pockets. Raw hemlines. Fully lined. Between avant-garde, femininity and couture, its minimal design results in an elegant and timeless dress.

Fashion out of the beaten paths

/ Leave a Comment

Emotions & beauty in a distinct venue

Come and discover fashion out of the beaten paths, where you’ll find exceptional artisanal work made with care and love for uniqueness.

Walking through showrooms for our Spring-Summer 24 research, it’s been amazing to witness the work of some designers who express their own vision of fashion. Those who follow their own path, meaning they don’t feel involved in the latest trends just to sell more. Those who offer a good design, beautiful fabrics, and timeless quality. Away from the commercial logic of overproduction and mass distribution. Precisely, they do the opposite. Few words and hard work. Therefore, they provide real value.

A path of recognizable value

For instance, entering Marc Le Bihan‘s space was like opening the Narnia door: you open it and get in a world apart. Set up in a post-industrial structure, a large room with big windows from which a late summer September sun brightened the garments. After a look around, a shiny black piano in a corner gave us a clue we didn’t get immediately, just because we did not expect it. Indeed, while peaking through the clothing along the perimeter of the four-room sides, we noticed a wood bar behind them. So we connected the dots: it was a dance school! 

Fashion out of the beaten paths

Marc Le Bihan’s “Danseuse Line” has found the perfect frame. But so it was for the gorgeous pristine white lace or linens, the silk slip dresses in different shapes. And the tye-dye knitwear. Likewise, Jean-Francois Mimilla’s materic jewels, whose precious crocheted hand work makes them unique. 

Uniqueness out of the beaten paths

And so, the atmosphere was unique, warm, quiet and poetic. Marc le Bihan’s clothes, like Jean Francois Mimilla jewels, delivered a tactile experience made of dreamy creativity, out of the ordinary, and, because of its uniqueness, even more beautiful.

Independent designers and artisanal fashion provide the opportunity to own unique, high-quality pieces that are not mass-produced or widely available. That is the essence of luxury style.

However, the whole set-up affirmed that there’s still something meaningful in fashion. It doesn’t have to mingle with the mainstream. Indeed, it’s not for all, but you can find exceptional fashion out of the beaten paths. 

Another note of appreciation: the space was fully accessible. Don’t take it for granted in the fashion field!
