Dear Henri Joli, how do you define the actual Fashion industry ?
Due to the pandemic the fashion industry is not on their best time for sure but I think it's not to bad because we need to change the production to more sustainable fashion to protect the hearth.

Jean-Paul is my mentor ! It’s him give to me this strong passion for fashion and above all to treat it with humor. he always said we must have fun in fashion and that’s what he always did.

Perfect Fashion show it is to bring the dream, the fairy tale and the happyness to spectators and clients. Make them want to always be the most beautiful.
What exactly means Haute Couture and how do you feel wich designer has the potential to creat Haute Couture collections ?
Not all Houses have the Haute Couture appellation because it has to be earned. This appellation is protected worldwide by the French Ministry of Culture. I will say nothing no discrimination between designers but I can say the potential for one couturier it is Jean-Paul Gaultier.
What is your advise for the young designers who are searching for the glory and fame ?
This is available for any kind of jobs ! Forget the glory and fame just need to work work work and put all your passion into your creativity than the glory and fame will come on the right time. Don’t talk just be in action and do it ! Fashion is one of the most difficult job to do on the right way !

Many projects are on the way but one most important it’s to built a plateforme around sustainability. I want to bring more value on basic fabric of sustainable fashion to be more attractif of what we can find today in the market this is why I call our company «Couture Sustainable Fashion». New fabric with more lively and shimmering materials.
