I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from Cécile Feilchenfeldt and her assistant Clémentine Udron.
Under the instruction of Cécile Feilchenfeldt and her assistant Clémentine Udron, I worked on Look #9. As using beads is one of Cécile's most famous techniques, this dress is completely covered in small Swarovski stones.
This top in wool with beads is one of two pieces that Cécile Feilchenfeldt with assistance Clémentine Udron just finish for Louis Vuitton when I began my internship. Under guidance but independently, I knitted and sewed more pieces for sale during my stay.
The dress by Balmain with a knitted top part was part of the Balmain Fall 2022 Ready-to-Wear collection. For a show at la Seine Musicale in June 2022, singer Björk chose the futuristic look and I was able to work on the piece while being an intern at Studio Cécile Feilchenfeldt in Paris.

Cécile Feilchenfeldt is also constantly working on new jewellery creations. Salons are the perfect situation to show new developments, therefore I was able to help composing and finalize the shown necklace for the "Salon Révévelations" 2022 at the Grand Palais Éphémère, Paris. The piece has been published in the magazine "Paris vous aime" N.11
