Classic Yet Innovative Design

Courrèges, a brand that once took the world by storm in the 1960s with its futuristic pantaloons and mini-looks, is being revived. In 2011, Frederic Torloting and Jacques Bungert took over the esteemed maison, restarting it with a sporty, structured line that pays homage to its past archives. The collaboration with Alain Mikli has resulted in iconic Courrèges models, with six styles planned for release (priced between ¥33,600 and ¥37,800). They will be available from early April at Alain Mikli shops (excluding some locations).

Frederic Torloting and Jacques Bungert state, "We love Courrèges and want to work with the best partners in our respective fields. Alain Mikli was an ideal encounter. They understand the maison's style and respect its values. We believe that both long-time fans of Courrèges and those discovering the brand for the first time will be captivated by this new, elegant collection."
