In an interview with WWD, the French designer talks about her signature boho style, launching shoes and more on a visit to Los Angeles.
this week, on Sunday morning before 10 a.m., she had already hit the Santa Monica Antique and Vintage Market and was headed out with bags full of hand-quilted, upcycled garments.
Her footwear had a rapid rise. Launched in 2011, her bestselling $665 high-top Betty sneakers, with a concealed wedge heel, sparked thousands of imitators. When she first came here, it was by accident. She was waylaid in New York by a volcanic eruption in Iceland, and decided to go West for a side trip. She took in the vintage workwear and Americana at stores such as Mister Freedom, immersed herself in the fringy rock ‘n’ roll vibe of Laurel Canyon, and observed the graphic, surf-and-skate sportswear in Venice Beach, Calif.
“The 1980s I love, disco and Blondie and all those girls who were stylish wearing nothing,” she said, looking at a Memphis color-blocked windbreaker tucked into pink paper bag waist pants from spring 2019.The big shoulder, big sleeve trend was another one she drove that year, as seen on a puff-sleeve black leather jacket and trousers look from fall 2019 over studded slouchy boots.
