Avril Gau: the rules of chic revisited
After 12 years between Chanel and Robert Clergerie, Avril Gau has become independent. A freelance stylist, she continued to design for large brands such as Loewe and Accessoire Diffusion and gives life to its own brand. In the Spring of 2002, the brand's first collection of footwear was created. Four years after the first collection of handbags and small leather goods. Its style is both classic and contemporary, retro and modern; in summary, timeless. The use of unusual materials, an atypical over sized strap or a inside out zipper are in harmonise with their enriched structures. The treatment of colour is refined, and the leathers used come from the best high-end European tanneries. The bags are produced in France, the shoes in Italy and Portugal.
