With her light yet sure touch and a certain childlike quality, Laetitia Ivanez has been refining the Prairies de Paris collection for eleven years; pure and graceful, it features delicate details and finishing touches which complement a decisive cut. Having trained in the theatre, Laetitia began her career in fashion in the Agnès B boutiques before working alongside her designer father; on his departure, she left the stage for good and began to carve out a new role for herself as a fashion designer in her own right. The inspiration behind each collection is essentially Parisian, spirited and feminine, imbued with subtle colour. A natural, sensual elegance runs throughout; strong feelings are inspired by clever detailing. Her first fashion show on 2000 was a delightful mixture of poetry, refinement and emotion, defining the very essence of Les Prairies de Paris. Today, Laetitia Ivanez divides her time between managing and designing the Prairies de Paris collections. This, then, is Les Prairies de Paris: a highly personal experience, imbued with a refreshing spontaneity; a pastoral symphony with urban overtones.
