.gucci has partnered with the Haitian-American emerging designer to mark the return of NYFW with a knitwear-focused selection of pieces.
The Azede Powered by Gucci selection of pieces is made up of five key styles, which Jean-Pierre described as “cozy classics reinvented, reined pieces you’ll reach for from fall to spring.” Known for her meticulous craftsmanship, innovative technology, and comfort in casual dress, the assortment includes a bodysuit, gender-neutral shirtdress, “coatigan” and skirt, as well as Jean-Pierre’s personal favorite: a sculpted pant.
Jean-Pierre and her team interpreted each design from sketches into drapes, constructed initial samples, and chose each of the finely woven yarns and stitch constructions — extra-fine merino wools and cashmere knitted in ribs, jacquards, ottomans and complementing stitches — before passing onto Italy, where the pieces were produced by the House. A palette of blues, reminiscent of water and sky, runs throughout, as do hues of skin and sand, black and white.
“The concept of a Kompa lesson felt perfect due to my Haitian culture. The dance is suave, sensual, effortless and punk — and a gem not many people outside of Haitian culture know much about,” Jean-Pierre told WWD. “Ibra and I had several conversations over the course of which the idea formed around a training montage and video portraits of a dance performer and her instructor. Because the clothing is designed for ease and movement, ideas of performance excited us.
