The autumn-winter collection [INDISTINCT CHATTER] follows the theme of the voyage of initiation<\/strong> – found in the high jewelry collections of Van Cleef & Arpels<\/a> – where nature reclaims its rights<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Finally, only a privileged clientele has access to a private salon<\/strong> upstairs, where they can enjoy tailor-made shopping<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Second Empire style revisited<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
F\u00eate Imp\u00e9riale is a reflection of its founder, an art lover and fan of David Bowie and Yves Saint Laurent. The pomp of the Second Empire meets the fiery cuts and colors of the wild nights of the 1980s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Its first summer collection in 2016 was inspired by strong women who started from nothing<\/strong>, such as Liane de Pougy, the indomitable androgynous cocotte of Belle \u00c9poque Paris, Madonna, who arrived in New York with 35 dollars in her pocket in 1978, and Grace Jones, the radiant muse of Jean-Paul Goude.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nFrom the very start of the brand, its creator and artistic director was determined to develop highly elaborate prints<\/strong> to create “painting pieces<\/strong>” where clothing becomes an artistic medium. These prints are inspired by nineteenth- and twentieth-century painting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The brand offers both flowing evening and daywear<\/strong> for a joyful, colorful and festive woman.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Conjuring up decadent memories of the great imperial balls<\/strong> organized by Napoleon III and Empress Eug\u00e9nie, the brand pursues an “outrageous way of life” mantra.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Each collection is composed of silk<\/strong> pieces, a material dear to the designer<\/strong>, reminiscent of the 1980s fashion shows of Yves Saint Laurent and Versace. Silk is found in blouses, scarves, pants, jumpsuits, dresses and kimonos.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Diversification and international ambitions<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
This first physical boutique is part of a strategy to develop the distribution network<\/strong>, particularly internationally.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Currently, F\u00eate Imp\u00e9riale has some sixty retail partners in Europe<\/strong>, including the Italian luxury goods platform LuisaViaRoma and its physical outlets in Florence, as well as the Danish department store Magasin du Nord. The brand is also distributed outside Europe.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
By 2024<\/strong>, it is targeting Asia, with expansion in India and Taiwan.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
In addition to this internationalization strategy, F\u00eate Imp\u00e9riale aims to diversify into accessories<\/strong>. Its spring-summer 2023 CORSICA collection, a veritable ode to the Isle of Beauty, was an opportunity to experiment with the world of footwear through a pair of mules made in Spain with a translucent colored heel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n
