Interview in Jalouse
In which we learn that:
-Simon emailed Raf when he was 19 to tell him how he respected him, sadly Raf did not reply as it was just before he arrived at Dior (not the greatest timing).
-Minimalism imposed itself to Simon when he first started: he went to see a seamstress and asked her to make the fewest details possible because he didn't have a lot of money. His challenge consisted in making the same dress 6 times - he had to find a way to make it likeable and different each time. He likes repetition and that's his force.
-Jacquemus' style in 3 words: naive, raw, ultra-simple, but not simple. Simple would be jeans and a white tee whereas ultra-simple would be a strong look and not so easy. He likes things simple literally.
-Adrian Joffe, Rei's husband, wears Jacquemus
