Months that the project was under preparation. Because the idea of designing fashion accessories arrived faster than expected. First with the oversized [button] necklaces, the “famous” design necklace Pirogues, then the Ice collar [button] series in Plexiglas . After that, the Eden cuff bracelets and their lacquered buckles on acidulated vinyl leather …
And suddenly, everything happily rushed. The orders, the tailor-made, the designer and ‘couturier’ solicitations. And sales were chained. A bracelet, two bracelets, ten necklaces, then twenty. Merciiiii to you all !!!!
So behind the scenes, welcome to a growing brand.
Indeed, it was time to create a complete Accessories line alongside BUTTONS PARADISE!
An ‘ATTELIER’ with two T? Crazy, isn’t it! But why?
Attelier in French is Atelier for Workshop. But the metamorphosis of the word ‘Attelier’ as if you wrote ‘workkshop’ is far from trivial to me. ATTELIER with two T’s, it is the craft of both hands and the double ‘T’ of Buttons. It is now the creation and marketing of the BUTTONS PARADISE Accessories range.
Tradition, Innovation & Up-cycling!
Up-cycling? Just a rapid digression for language matters to my English, Canadian and American friends. From a strictly French point of view, Up-cycling could sound like another barbarous word?! Not really ! Because at L’ATTELIER, priority is given to the art of majestic diversion. Just need to explain: a rare, contemporary or vintage sewing button or a belt buckle sublimate our most simple and sophisticated outfits. So why not transcend usages and innovate by turning them into jewelry?
It is funny because as I am writing you, the word ‘sculpture‘ is reasoning and reasoning again. Some know it, others do not, but I am passionate about sculpture. So, I dare. Simply because to imagine a couture button or jewel loop, in mother-of-pearl, wood essence, galalithe or acetate to adorn them in bracelets, design necklaces or bib necklaces are gestures and creations that inspire me sculptures.
Without doubt, Picasso, Delaunay, Arp, Giacometti, Garouste were interested in the love of the voluptuousness of shapes. They took an interest in haute couture buttons for creating them. And I wanted to tell you this so much.
