Renowned for its clean, pared-down aesthetic, A.P.C. has remained at the helm of Parisian fashion for more than thirty years. Suzanne Koller has consistently worked with the brand for ten, across both runway shows and advertising campaigns. Her knowledge of the label is unparalleled and it comes as no surprise that the founder and chief designer Jean Touitou would look at her for two collaborations.
When designing the lines, Suzanne wanted to create a selection of timeless classics; essential items that are versatile yet chic, much like her own wardrobe. Speaking to Vogue about the partnership Koller said, “It’s pieces I like, and I hope other people will like them…The approach to us working together felt natural because I have known Jean and Judith for 10 years. They gave me total freedom, and total freedom can be the hardest thing! In the end, what I’ve done is very me. I am a classic person, not very extravagant. We are all looking for that perfect right thing, and for me, at least, I’ve found them.”
