The Concept (Living Art)

Transforming the prestigious Salon des Miroirs into a hybrid exhibition where the garments are as theatrical as the venue itself.

  1. Complex Handling(01)

    Dressing and managing large, fragile pieces: train dresses, metallic draping and overlapping ruffles.

  2. Spatial Adaptation(02)

    Keeping garments organized and intact in the narrow backstage corridors for a smooth exit onto the runway.

  3. Beauty & Cohesion(03)

    Working alongside the beauty team on one consistent look, from textured makeup to bleached eyebrows, leading up to the final collective celebration.
