LolaSvelt, sorry I don't have any more.
you're welcome softgrey
through production and in the form of collaboration
it could be said that luc is a special line from his family's factory where quality knit stuff is produced and delivered to the clients who are some well-known brands.
and that time they were involved as luc since it was sort of special work.
around the early 2003, cdg's corner store in isetan carrying various brands other than their own products had luc. that way, there had been some connection which I guess somehow resulted in the collaboration with junya. you know that happens. for example, michael tapia once collaborated with luc. that just resulted from their showrooms during the paris fashion week being next to each other.
also, off topic though, I think one of the reasons maurizio altieri who had been totally ignored got to present his work suddenly in the prestigious spaces that those retail all stars provided and sell it in that unusual price range for a label that had been unknown to the market was cdg's recommendation. if you think about it, those carpe diem dealers in those days were also who had dealt with cdg.
