BETWEEN S U Z A N N E AND V I C T O I R E:
Victoire, the creator of the brand Les Couronne de Victoire in her Parisian showroom.
Les Couronnes de Victoire, why?
I was a lawyer for 5 years, then one morning I woke up thinking that this life did not make me dream for the next 30 years and that I wanted to rediscover the creativity and excitement of an artistic project. I therefore founded the Victory Wreaths to sublimate women in the most beautiful day of their lives but also in their daily lives. I have always been attracted to flowers since my childhood, and setting up a brand of flowery accessories was a matter of course.
What is your leitmotif?
Bringing beauty, poetry and magic into people's lives.
As a designer, what is your daily inspiration?
I really like to look at the haute couture fashion shows for inspiration, but also at travel photos.
What are your 3 key words in managing your brand?
The search for excellence, the protection of craftsmanship and girl power (there are only super chicks in society and I am too proud of each of them).
What color would you be in a pencil box?
The fuchsia pink.
What do you think about when you're alone in your car?
I am lucky enough to walk to work in the morning, but during my journey I often think about the inspirations of the new collections.
What is your favorite song of the 90s?
Sixpence none the richer - kiss me
What animal could you be?
A cat clearly! By the way, I adopted a little cat, Lilas, who is with us at the company's premises all day long:)
What was the last gift you gave to someone?
A beautiful book.
What would be the gift you would like to receive?
Something that can be kept for life as a souvenir, a pretty object or a pretty piece of jewellery.
What's the funniest thing that's happened to you in the last few days?
As I walked past the store the other day to go shopping, there was a woman I didn't know who said through the window to the cat, "oh hello Lilas, how are you? Clearly the cat is a little star in the neighborhood and it has almost dethroned our accessories:)
Finally, what is your hair care ritual?
When I wash my hair, I always use a shampoo plus a very nourishing conditioner to detangle the lengths. And I apply once every two weeks coconut oil or Leonor Greyl oil on the lengths before sleeping so that it works well all night long:)
Finally, qhat accessory of Les Couronnes de Victoire would you suggest to the Suzanne Woman?
A pair of earrings, a modern and feminine accessory, that can be worn for a wedding or to enhance an everyday outfit.
Russian Dolls Collection
