The Design

About Le Rouge et le Noir Modeversameling

Le Rouge et le Noir is 'n modeversameling geïnspireer deur die musiekblyspel wat verwerk is uit Stendhal se roman met dieselfde naam. Die versameling vertolk die emosies van die hoofkarakter Julien deur 'n Franse rock-estetika. Negentiende-eeuse Europese hofsilhoeëtte word gekombineer met punk-besonderhede. Die klassieke rooi en swart kleurskema weerspieël die temas van die roman. Elke stuk is met die hand vervaardig met egte leer, klinknaels, veiligheidsspelde en ander pasgemaakte elemente. Die resultaat bied 'n ontmoeting tussen klassieke en kontemporêre ontwerpelemente.
