ALAÏA

Founded in 1964, Alaïa is a Parisian Couture Maison celebrating the power of femininity and the timelessness of beauty in the spirit of its namesake Tunisian creator. A legendary master of cut, Azzedine Alaïa enhanced the female body through sensual and sculptural creations, embellished fabrics and streamlined silhouettes. Free from fashion diktats, he followed his own vision to build a singular and enduring approach to creation. His free and uncompromising mind, open to different cultures and to art while remaining devoted to the craft, still imbues the creation at Alaïa. The Maison perpetuates in its ateliers, a pioneering approach to the body as sculpture, crafting limitless interpretations of women’s beauty. Its signature dresses and creations are sculpted with structure and fluidity from innovative materials and legendary knits, as an ode to femininity.
