” The Mad Hatted ”

A wander through Paris, far from its postcard-like archetypes, from dawn to dusk. Bathed in natural light, a gang of hat-wearing kids strolls through the hallways of Studio Berçot School and throughout the East of the city. An oversized bucket hat or a minimalist beret, these gender-neutral designs operate as signs of belongings to a secret society. And for those who wear them, these creations evoke another dream: one of a unified and diverse future, where style is both a vector of acceptance and singularity.
Photographed by Dexter Navy, a close collaborator to today’s prominent rappers, and under the artistic vision of Priscilla Royer, the house’s creative director, these images symbolize better than ever Maison Michel’s will for a form of luxury synonymous to savoir-faire as much as progress.
