About 2016 S/S collection

―Why have you chosen Tokyo (or MBFWT) as the venue for presenting your collection?

We chose MBFWT to share this bold and unabashedly joyful collection with as many people as possible.

 

―What is the concept / image for your brand’s 2016 S/S season?

Petit Bateau’s mischievous world takes on new poetic meaning and pop style thanks to Jean-Charles Castelbajac’s vision. Bold colours – blue, red and yellow – lend the collection both glitz and contrast. This delightful partnership between one of the biggest names in French fashion and the classic brand from Troyes has resulted in an event collection full of French charm.

 

―What is your vision for your show / installation?

The show will be a mix between the live painting performance and the showcase of selected items of the capsule collection both conceived by the revolutinoary artist JC de Castelbajac.
