Christophe Lemaire’s foray on thecorner.com is crowned by the “Radical Simplicity” capsule collection for men and women, which consists of six essential, convertible and modular garments in black and white, conceived to be mixed-and-matched in countless combinations: two spring summer 2012 shapes in exclusive fabrics as well as four signature pieces in cotton crepe, as light as a breeze.

“A well-proportioned garment, in the right fabric, with the right cut and not too ‘fashion’ doesn’t need to be redesigned every season, but the puzzle around it should simply be reinvented to make it more exciting: it is a question of common sense and I have a feeling that we are finally getting back to it” says Christophe Lemaire.
