The Palm and the Girl / Les Dix Parfums, 2005 - In collaboration with the Dutch Fashion Foundation


A video made in collaboration with the Dutch Fashion Foundation (DFF) as part of a series of 10 short videos called 'Les Dix Parfums', featuring 10 Dutch fashion designers.
Concept video: Keupr/van Bentm / Concept series & artistic direction: Angelique Westerhof / Director & director of photography: Paul Staartjes / Hair: Taco Stuiver

For the setting of the video we were inspired by the portraits of Coco Chanel in her famous mirrored staircase at her studio on Rue Cambon.

The featured outfit came from a special Prêt-á-Porter DeLuxe-series we did in september 2004 for a gala event celebrating 15 years of Dutch ELLE.

The palm tree was a reference to our iconic palm-print from our collection 'Farm/ Parade 1999', presented in Paris in march 1999.
