Our favorite of the season: Amandine Grimm, a very special girl, a ctalented director and an incredible person that we loved to meet...
Her credo: to make her clients look beautiful and confident on their big day.
Her remarkable work and the attention to detail she pays to each of her creations have made us want to go further together by mixing our two worlds. Ne had planned a special moment for our future brides in Montpellier but the particular situation we have just lived through with this health crisis has decided otherwise... We are working on a new date to meet you, very soon we hope, during an event and discuss your wedding projects: your dress, your hairstyle, your accessories, your various and varied desires... In the meantime, we'll make you wait and let you discover Amandine through our little interview...
A big thought for our brides of this period who see their wedding canceled...courage! Let's stay positive ♡
BETWEEN S U Z A N N E AND A M A N D I N E G R I M M :

Wedding dresses, why?
Because I like to accompany women on this unique day, and create for her and with her. Their wedding outfit allows them to reveal themselves to herself. The second reason is because I like to work in a handcrafted way, by hand, with beautiful materials. Finally, before creating my company, I studied stage costumes. I believe that the wedding dress is a bit like that too: to create for a personality, a unique being, a character, a singular morphology.
What is your leitmotif?
to see the smiles on my clients' faces the day their dresses are delivered. Not forgetting the joy of creating on a daily basis.
As a designer, what is your daily inspiration?
Inspiration is everywhere and changes constantly over the years. But in general I am attracted to fresh romantic and somewhat magical poetic worlds. Without forgetting the story of the costume that I like to modernise.
What are your 3 watchwords in managing your work?
Never put off till tomorrow. Try to push yourself and get out of your comfort zone. Be disciplined with yourself (especially when you're a company director;) ;
What color would you be in a pencil box?
The nude, the powdered colors.
What do you think about when you're alone in your car?
Je look at the landscape ;) the car is often the decompression chamber, the floating moment between the professional world and family life, I enjoy it!
What is your favorite song of the 90s?
Spice girls-if you wanna be my lover... among others.
What animal could you be?
An imaginary animal such as a bluebird, unicorn or mermaid...
What was the last gift you gave to someone?
A personalized wooden measuring rod by Marlène Wood Creation for my goddaughter's first year.
What would be the gift you would like to receive?
For my birthday in April I got white roller-quads with pink wheels! It was my dream ;)
What's the funniest thing that's happened to you in the last few days?
this questionnaire;)
Finally, what is your hair care ritual?
I've got long hair at the moment, curly by nature, it's a bit of a hassle but I like it. Let's be honest, I don't do anything crazy, apart from drying it in a t-shirt after shampooing to make it less damaged. Cut the ends off every three months. And I've recently started using a solid shampoo from Druydès, which I'm very happy with.
Finally, qhat accessory would you suggest to the Suzanne Woman?
Long pendants piling up around the neck and a big fringed shawl for the evening.
