Chapter 5 : Sculpteur
« Sculpteur » [Fr, noun] : The one who shapes and transforms.
A shirt imagined for a sculptor, shaping raw material with passion. It embodies his focused, bohemian energy: easy to slip on, designed for movement, and reinforced with five rows of stitching along the button placket — a piece created to follow his every gesture.
THE SIGNATURE FABRIC
It all begins with one of our suppliers, where we discovered a linen that was both supple and durable. With the application of a special finish, this linen is transformed into a unique, raw canvas—almost mineral in texture—reminiscent of an artist’s painting canvas. This unexpected result, both visual and tactile, immediately caught our attention.
SCULPTEUR REINVENTED
First imagined in raw linen with a singular texture, the Sculpteur shirt has since been reinterpreted in a finer linen—lighter, more fluid—perfect for summer days when comfort and freedom of movement take precedence.
The SCULPTEUR silhouette is also expressed through color. In terracotta or deep blue, it brings a bold touch to the summer wardrobe while preserving the elegance of the original cut. And finally, the striped seersucker version: light, textured, and wrinkle-resistant, evoking the relaxed charm of seaside holidays.
SIGNATURE DETAILS
THE BOURRIENNE CUT
We created the Bourrienne cut to offer a new silhouette in shirting, inspired by the romantic volumes of the past. A series of gathers at the back panel adds movement and ease. Our signature fit.
THE EMBROIDERIES
The Maison has chosen to embroider its logo in white-on-white, as well as on the hirondelle (the small shoulder pleat). Similarly, the name of each shirt is embroidered on the inside of the right cuff.
