The METROPOLE collection celebrates the history of the birthplace of modern fashion and its transformation into the iconic megalopolis that defined the Industrial Revolution—a period of innovation and cultural expansion. At the same time, the collection draws inspiration from the human brain, whose development and capacity to generate new ideas mirror that same expansion, just as cities grow and transform.

The Industrial Revolution transformed the human mind: new ideas, inventions, and technological advances allowed people to surpass the limits of what was believed possible. This mental expansion is reflected in the metropolis that grew
around the brightest minds of the era. Cities like Paris began to interconnect with other metropolises, expanding their influence globally.

The concept of “fashion” ceased to be solely French and became an international phenomenon. The brain, like a global city, connects with millions of ideas, cultures, and emotions, expanding the horizons of thought.
