The collection was actually brought to life using the intarsia technique, a classic procedure in the garment industry, specifically along with hair as well as shearling. While commonly used to create smooth and fragile concepts, this technique had to be adjusted to accomplish a tough as well as strong design. Each shearling piece was actually thoroughly reduced as well as sewn through hand, causing a dynamic as well as long lasting design.
‘I need to mention that Yves Salomon is actually very reserved, however they are understood to become the most ideal on earth at this approach.

Working mainly with hardwood, Chapo Cru00e9ation is devoted to recognizing this distinguished component through decreasing waste and leftovers. The very same philosophy applies to Yves Salomon.
