VIRGINIE CASTAWAY
After a year trip in Australia, the French designer Virginie Castaway felt like sharing her passion and launched then her own fancy label in 2004.
Sydney has been the greatest place to start it up ...I got swept away by the beauty of the nature over there...and felt amazingly free to express deep emotions within my own creations!
In a nutshell, I would say the label is stylish, elegant, pure, sophisticated and easy-to-wear.
The designer has always been sensitive regarding fabric touch she spends a lot of time looking for sweet, comfortable and good quality fabrics: I’m really much into fluid, light and soft layers.
Clothes should help your body feel free in motion... My view of sophistication and elegance is that you should feel at ease and sexy with yourself. Clothes are made to be the expression of your own personality.
“Actually, I would love people to consider Virginie Castaway as a life style more than a garment brand. I want them to approach it as a way of living, a philosophy...”
When I start creating a collection, I’m thinking about pretty, smiley, healthy women. I can picture them in their daily life, working, traveling, catching-up with some friends, raising kids, keep on being sexy for themselves and glamorous for her lover.
Well, I hope the collection will meet women’s expectations...Enjoy!!
Virginie Castaway is available in some of our Los Angeles store locations and by special request. Please contact us for more information.
