FOCUS IN 3 QUESTIONS
- Why this love for fashion you who works first of all in the social reintegration?
"Fascinated by the fashion since my earliest childhood, I found at first my inspiration at the young designers of my country of origin, Senegal.
Curious generally about all which is made in this domain, I had the idea, by increasing, to value the talents of this local fashion.
I meet then a young Senegalese designer on whom I decide to promote the brand in France as the ethnic fashion is rapidly expanding.
Shows; fashion shows; exhibitions, I multiply the meetings and decide to create an association including all the actors of the fashion in the city where I am settled, what is going to give birth to Mode in Rouen. "

- Your meeting with Talents Aiguilles?
« Talents Aiguilles is an association created by some students keen on fashion of Néoma Business School located in Rouen.
When I began to set up my project, which was to create a house of fashion by means of the occupational reintegration, my domain of preference, my partners and me needed of one market study not raising our immediate knowledge. We called on to Néoma to support for its realization.
This is the way we connected with Talents Aiguilles and the understanding was immediate in the concept of the gathering of the actors of the local fashion and their promotion.
So, it was for them quite natural that I am one of the members of the jury of their annual competition of young fashion designers from Rouen."
