EXCLUSIVE CAPSULE COLLECTION by CHRISTOPHE LEMAIRE - at www.thecorner.com





CHRISTOPHE LEMAIRE DEBUTS ON THECORNER.COM
WITH AN EXCLUSIVE CAPSULE COLLECTION “RADICAL SIMPLICITY” FOR THE PERFECT SUMMER.........





Starting today 15th of March, Christophe Lemaire’s innovative yet timeless concept of “garde-robe” debuts on thecorner.com with a special project for spring summer 2012.

Lemaire’s foray on thecorner.com is crowned by the “Radical Simplicity” capsule collection for men and women. The Capsule presents a very concise and essential set of six shapes in timeless black and white conceived to be mixed-and-matched in countless combinations: two spring summer 2012 shapes in exclusive fabrics as well as four signature pieces in cotton crepe, as light as a breeze.

Zouave inspired pants with generous pleats and a knotted blouse all in cotton ensure the perfect summer uniform. A kaftan with a shawl collar brings a monastic comfort.

A blouse with an elastic waistband and covered snaps doubles as an ultra-light blouson for mild evenings while an asymmetrical shirt and a highwaisted pants recall the sophisticated ease and new-wave elegance proper to the label.








The same notion runs through Christophe Lemaire’s SS12 collection, available on the exclusive thecorner.com mini-store dedicated to the French designer. The spring-summer 2012 collection nourishes the fantasy of a light suitcase, filled only with the bare essentials: complementary, convertible, and modular, for a journey to a tropical country during the monsoon season, tinted with new-wave beats and the sound of copper percussions.

Every season, Christophe Lemaire refines a timeless and convertible garde-robe comprised of exigent fundamentals and iconic pieces of comfortable volumes. He solves the equation of a garment that could be entirely adopted by a variety of individuals on the quest of both singular and quiet pieces. Continuously striving against ephemeral fashions, Christophe Lemaire attracts the attention and loyalty of demanding individuals, thanks to a respectful communication and collections generating meaning.

Leitmotiv “A well-proportioned garment, in the right fabric, with the right cut and not too ‘fashion’ doesn’t need to be redesigned every season, but the puzzle around it should simply be reinvented to make it more exciting: it is a question of common sense and I have a feeling that we are finally getting back to it” says Christophe Lemaire.

thecorner.com will introduce the designer through an exclusive video that unveils more details on this special project with the French designer.
