To Discover - Lucid Interval

The Tareet showroom embodies the very essence of the brand, offering a space where the creative fusion between France and Senegal comes to life. With his training at IFM, Etienne Diop, through this exclusive showroom, presents a hybrid and avant-garde wardrobe. All the pieces on display are the result of small-scale production and collaboration between the designer, his family, and friends. They also reflect the designer's dedication to craftsmanship, showcasing traditional know-how while integrating 3D tools and reinterpreted patterns. On the central island, for example, you'll find a series of sneakers taking the unique form of a "babouche" created with the support of asics and Simon Santi. On the walls, unique pieces emphasizing the art of weaving are displayed, ranging from cowhide caps to wavy visors to pieces that reinterpret the codes of the chech. Nearby, you'll discover a line of stainless steel jewelry made with thismx. While on the rack, four collections vie for attention: his end-of-studies collection, a series of reinterpretations of football jerseys and CP Company pieces, as well as his latest creations to date, which introduce a new design and new materials. Hurry to discover the fascinating and dystopian universe of this brand before the pop-up closes its doors.
