Jérôme Dreyfuss does not look like someone who has entered the Paris fashion world. This is positive. Wearing slightly worn white sneakers, jeans and a simple sweater, and slightly whitish curly hair, but with a juvenile expression, the 48-year-old looks like a good boy next door. This is how he performed when he invited you to his company headquarters in the heart of Paris’s Marais district for an interview. Dreyfuss immediately broke the deadlock in its relaxing and personable way and started from the ground up. You can’t say that to many of his fashion colleagues.
Part of paris
Jérôme Dreyfuss brand handbags enjoy a high reputation in France. They have been part of the streetscape of Paris for nearly 20 years, as have the bistro chairs and the magnificent facades of the urban planner Georges-Eugène Haussmann. Almost no Parisian has at least one model of his own understanding of beautiful things. The French just started to design bags to keep his wife’s back free. At that time she was pregnant with the couple’s son. By the way, she is the fashion designer Isabel Marant.
Both were amused today, but almost no one knew: she was the wife of Jérôme Dreyfuss at the time, not the other way around. Dreyfuss ran a very successful brand from 1998 to 2002. It is more successful than Isabel Marant, whose international campaign started later. Dreyfuss is considered a child prodigy in the fashion world. He had previously served as assistant to Jean Paul Gaultier and was regarded as a terrifying new baby.At only 23 years old, he staged his first fashion show, two years later he was called Michael Jackson Ask him personally if he can make stage costumes for his “Invincible” tour.
“Too much success too fast”
But then he dropped out of school day after day and ended his label. “I have achieved too much success too fast,” he said today from behind his big desk on Charlotte Street. “Every time I’m invited to some peculiar activity, I want to know what I’m doing. I think I’m afraid of getting my fingers burned.” An interesting idea, a young, down-to-earth Dreyfuss in jeans and sneakers Must sit next to Lagerfeld or Galliano.
At that time, in 2003, it was unusual for a man to quit his job for a newborn. In any case, in France, fathers usually rest up to two weeks after giving birth. “All my friends are amused by it,” he said. “But I said: It doesn’t matter, I will make a handbag by myself, and I will still have time to take care of the little guy in the future.”
What does a better bag look like?
His collection is very successful, he is on the spot Working dad He didn’t expect it. It can be said that at a social party, he flicked his first draft from his sleeve: “We have a few friends over for dinner, and they all carry very ugly handbags, and the huge things are too heavy for their logo. They said there was nothing else on the market. So I asked myself: How can you do better?”
He jokingly called his first draft “Transformers.” They should be variable in order to accompany women in all daily situations. “You can carry it on your shoulders, there are some extra small pockets to take out, when you go home in the dark and drink too much rosé wine, there is always a small flashlight with you to find the keyhole.” At that time, not everyone had a smart phone, just swipe and tap to emit a dazzling light. But to this day, many wearers still appreciate the comfort of these bags. They are made of soft, pliable leather and fit the body smoothly.
