Enzo Malone 




This young designer passionate about fashion from an early age, he deepens his knowledge of the fashion industry alongside designers who are already well established in the field. He is notably awarded for his creation the Kombisarr’ during the competition “Mes Tissages Urbains” taking place at the Mairie of the 10th arrondissement of Paris.

His  artistic and creative journey since 2010 is very rich in different experiences in the fashion industry and the project for creating his brand is coming true.

We attended the show during Haute Couture Fashion Week in Paris and we loved the collection that was presented. The collection is chic, elegant, exceptional and multicultural. The couture is studied to highlight the sculptural silhouette of women with a touch of originality. In the purest “Haute Couture” tradition and luxury ready-to-wear, designer Enzo Malone is for all those looking for elegance and exception. The designer seeks his inspiration in different cultures of the world, from Asia to Africa via the West… it mixes noble and natural materials, silk, satin, taffeta, organza, but also feathers, embroidery, pearls, copper, gold and silver threads, crystal… everything to sublimate the woman. Enzo Malone, also a specialist in “tailor-made”, he knows how to seduce an international clientele by the choice of materials, glamour, softness and the spirit of detail.

We are delighted to be able to discover this talented designer  and we will certainly hear about him in the future.
