JARDIN FRANCAIS by Justine Leconte

“The starting point for this collection was the biography of Le Notre, a garden architect at Versailles, in the time of King Louis XIV. The way he envisioned space and geometry to create his gardens is fascinating to me. If you look at a French-style garden from above, you’ll see graphic, regular shapes where rounded surfaces and sharp edges meet harmoniously. By adding texture to those shapes, I played along the limit between hard jewellery materials and the softer feeling of fabric.” -Justine
