Serge ORION
about
Serge ORION studied woodwork techniques for furniture , then he worked for high-end brands in Paris and France in general.
A passion for fashion and accessories , he has a preference for gloves , corsets , fans and parasols.
Guided by designers he decides to research into the parasol , and almost forgotten item of accessory , with a preference for the Napoleon 3 Rd to Belle Epoque period .
His fondness and sensitivity towards the parasols allow him to create new concepts in shape and textures .
He collaborates with master artisans and fashion photographers who share the same passion in helping the parasol , symbol of elegance , romanticism and with a true virtue in protecting from the sun , regain life though-out the world .
This romanticism brings the designer to personalise his creations by giving them a name and a poem , thus a soul
Serge ORION gains his inspiration in the years between 1900 and 1920 .
