Sphinx: New Tribalism

















First, two Utterances for the century. If you are new to the Paris Copy, then think of these "utterances" from the Palmier fountain in Paris as an oracle:


V80: The future was once fashionable. Now, it is simply technological. To regain the future, style must go ancient.

V81: Lesage is the only firm that can translate the wonder of Australian dreamings into fabulous capes. This should not take 20 years, just one client.

While the Utterances are normally cryptic, V80 and V81 are suggesting that we are in the beginning patterns of New Tribalism.

New Tribalism is not a collection sent down the catwalk in Paris or Milan, informed by trend reports and funded by a percentage of last season's sales. However, elements of any collection might find their way into the overall mix, the presentation, as it were.

New Tribalism is to be found in native totems, the plumage of exceptional birds, and the joy of semi-precious stones. The themes of design connect the urban dweller to the stars.
