Carven´s New Collaboration

Carven has collaborated with La Redoute on a capsule collection that will launch in January 2016, we can exclusively reveal. The collection, which will be designed by creative design duo Adrien Caillaudaud and Alexis Martial, has taken inspiration from the air-hostess uniforms that were created by the house's founder, Madame Carven, in the Sixties and Seventies.

"I already follow the work of Alexis and Adrien and love the uniqueness of Carven," said Sylvette Lepers, head of style at La Redoute. "I was sensitive to their message on the concept of accessibility and fresh approaches to the French woman's style."

The collection's colour palette will predominantly focus on navy, black, cream and khaki, with hints of pastels and highlights of red, according to La Redoute, and will feature Carven's signature nipped-in waists and precision-cut tailoring that "expresses both freedom and elegance".

Carven follows in the footsteps of Yves Saint Laurent, Azzaro, Anthony Vaccarello, Robert Clergerie, Delphine Collin, Vanessa Bruno, Courreges and Jacquemus - among others - to work with the French retailer.
