The Orient in Paris: the new creative directors of Cacharel

For this P / E 2011 Cacharel predicted colorful jelly glasses, indicating a new vision on the banks of the Seine? Yes, because even if we had thought to draw the Belgian designer Cédric Charlier, the change in house Cacharel there was, and how. On completion of the Charlier was, in fact, comes the news: a replacement will be the creative Ling Liu and Sun Dawey In October, the changing of the guard (+ new women's collection) in favor of the new creative duo who, apart from passports, it has a tradition rooted in arrodissement Paris.


However, after almost 65 years of history for a brand that blows printed silk garden (evergreen house) had master the desired changes in recent years between creativity, which choice is based much to the Far East and could, who you know, open the way for other, unexpected collaborations.

Warm sun and peach flowers, well, feelings that testimonial (from a Kate Moss Laetitia Casta in grass), campaigns and fit has always inspired a collection Cacharel: a harmony to be preserved despite the rapid handover. The new designer Ling Liu and Sun Dawey thirties and behind common courses at the Ecole de la Chambre Syndicalists, know that they are highly trained for the role.

And on top of the class what they already have a hp particularly the Left Bank: Ling Liu has made the bones in the creative team and once left Ghesquière Balenciaga has landed in the team of Stefano Pilati for YSL, but his partner after Dawey Sun won the Young Fashion Designer and have re-encountered at work by Liu Balenciaga spent five years by John Galliano.

It's not only the important steps to burn a cv to guess the new air of the house Cacharel. In 2009, Liu and Sun try to walk alone and create a brand that the intention (and name) is a summary of their education in Paris, Ninon Belle. At the same time making their debut marks another important milestone - and omen? - By Cacharel: a couple, Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto drawing for two seasons with the ready-to-wear brand.

When out on the catwalk, the duo seem more an indie band from Brooklyn that two London designers and Cacharel under the blows of their sweet creations undergoes a minimal influence (the duo Eley Kishimoto active as the early nineties had previously worked with Jil Sander and Alexander McQueen ).

Certainly the choice of Cacharel strengthens the theory that a generation of designers with fresh diploma in Eastern European schools (Central Saint Martin included) is rapidly gaining cult positions, and waiting to see Ling Liu and Sun Dawey the work, can assume that in Paris you are reassembling the puzzle slowly exploded with the vacancy at Dior.

The discreet appearance of the new team Cacharel can then become the key to all the free seats to Paris? Maybe. Perhaps that inspiration on the tornado that hit eastern already several seasons NY (Derek Lam, Phillip Lim and Alexander Wang) also will start the Paris revolution of the cherry?
