Casey Vidalenc

The Casey Vidalenc brand first saw the light of day in June 1999. The multinational duet that is English designer Gareth Casey and French designer Philippe Vidalenc works in Paris. These totally different people are held together by the fact that they love creating and working and digging out useless — or so they seem at any rate — things.

All of Casey Vidalenc´s garments are hand-made: starting with the sketches, through cutting out the material to the final finish — in a word, down to every last stitch. The result is items that simultaneously look identical and are totally different; fragile, and yet hard-wearing. Paradoxical though it may seem, each design repeats the last and yet at the same time has its own identity.
