project: moved from Belgium to Paris
Hi,

I'm studying Journalism in Belgium and in a month we're going to Paris.
One of our assignments is interviewing someone who was born in Belgium (Vlaanderen) and who then later moved to Paris.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks
Jana

you are talking fashion non?

well,rising belgian jewellery/accessory designer natalia brilli is based in paris now. i dunno if it's at all possible but since he's still so connected to his roots,martin margiela might be willing to do an interview as such. i don't really know of too many other belgian born designers who aren't based in antwerpen or bruxelle itself though.

good luck!!

thanks, but I don't think she was born in the Dutch part of Belgium. We need to interview someone who was born in the Dutch part of Belgium and then moved to Paris. I doesn't matter who it is, it doesn't have to be some famous designer. Anybody will do.

Martin Margiela doesn't do interviews. But there are quite a few Flemish fashion people here. Why not Walloons, though?

Thanks Scott and Prosperk. I know it's stupid, but they want us to interview Flemish people, not Walloons. I don't know why, but probably to make it harder to find someone :-)

The guy who's doing Louis Vuitton's menswear is Flemish, no?

There is someone working at Martin Margiela who is definitely Flemish, he works at the moulage-department

Haider Ackermann is kind of Flemish

Isn't Peter Bertsch Flemish? He works at Louis Vouitton

Kris van Assche sounds Flemish, but I'm not sure...

Thank you all so much!! I've sent some e-mail, now I just have to hope someone is willing to help me.
If by any chance any of you know someone who's a journalist or a editor for a Paris paper or magazine, let me know :-)?

Olivier Theyskens?

Ann Demeulemeesteer?

Dries Van Noten?

Jurgi Persoons?

When you say "moved to Paris", they all have a presence in Paris but like any non-French designer, they might not live here all the time. Apart from anything else, there are tax-related reasons for not wishing to spend more than 180 days in France.

Feel free to send me a message or an e-mail. I fit your description of journalist and editor in Paris...

Prosper
