NICOLAS Dl FELICE a Walloon to head the house of Courreges

摘要

Andre Courreges was beloved for his iconic little trapeze dresses and mid-thigh skirts, worn with great elegance by Jackie Kennedy and Francoise Hardy. Stand-outs from Nicolas Di Felice's Fall-Winter '22 pre-collection, which was introduced in January 2022, include heritage red, first seen in 1967, and the swallow shape, a signature detail for Courreges, ail infused with a distinctly youthful spirit. We welcome the arrival of workwear on the scene, as well as the creation of designs that are already timeless. "For me, keeping clothes is the best way of protecting the planet." Born near Charleroi in the Pays Noir, Belgium's industrial and mining heartland, Nicolas Di Felice is descended from Italian miners. Today, his ambition is first and foremost "to be a happy-and good-man".
