The strength and the seductiveness of the James Bond girl, whether villain one or not, is full of contradiction between her
supposed fragility next to the 007 and the strong woman that
she represents, proudly assuming her sexuality and beauty.

Particularly inspired by the figure of Grace Jones in the 80’s, this collection aims to deconstruct the notorious suit of the spy and his feminine partner.

 

Creating a fitter jacket with an exaggerated silhouette, using high quality wool and felt. This look shows an idealisation of the scuba diving wetsuit.

White dress in silk chiffon. All pleated and tight on the waist. This look is worn with an interpretation of a climbing harness with holster, maintaining the dress.
