From oversized straw hats that discard a sense of proportion, to slinky silhouettes that reinvent cliché shapes, his clothing and accessories embody a modern woman with a sense of imagination and confidence.
Simon Porte Jacquemus founded his French ready-to-wear label in 2009, using his mother’s maiden name to honor her memory.
