Fade S/S 09

Francois Sagat's illustrations get illuminated by Olivier Bobin's core collection of tees, dresses and scarves.

Text by Susie Bubble   |   Published 03 October 2008

At the Antisocial club in Paris on Wednesday, Olivier Bobin invited his "secret society" down to see his film for FADE's SS09 concentrated collection "Obsolete". The Bercot graduate created his label FADE based on the idea of wedding gowns and has stripped that down with the help of the illustrator Francois Sagat. For this collection, Bobin and Sagat draws up a world of fortune tellers, ouija boards, tarot cards and delves into ancient mythology and their symbolism. Atlas carrying the world on his shoulders, Dante's "Inferno" and even the FADE logo itself which is made up of a pyramid, an eye and a circle. The film takes us on a mystical journey into those symbols and the point is not to showcase the clothes which consist of t-shirt, dresses and scarves but more into the illustrations and what they mean. With The Kills and French band girl group the Plasticines as fans, Olivier's "secret society" is also a desirable one.
