Cacharel Le Liberty by Jéromine Savignon | CULTURE & LIFESTYLE |
Paris, France Cacharel has been making waves again on the runways of Paris with design couple, Clements Ribeiro, at the helm of the house. But it is the creative and romantic image of Cacharel in the swinging '60s that is conjured up whenever the name is mentioned. Cacharel Le Liberty tells the story about those times and of the names that have become so entwined with this company created by French-man Jean Bosquet - Corinne Sarrut, Sarah Moon and Liberty, the London department store well-known for its original prints. Everything sounded so easy - Bosquet was introduced to Liberty's floral prints and entrusted his sister-in-law, Sarrut, with the task of transforming them into a style. Sarrut, known for her eclectic mix-and-match look, simply made clothing that she'll want to wear. The brand's brilliant ad campaigns were shot by Moon, a friend of Sarrut, and her spellbinding and poetic images would make every girl aspire to be part of the Cacharel fantasy. -- Text & Photo: Naive |
