YASMINE SIMON

I had a business trip to Paris last July, and met many people, and talked various possibilities on collaborations.

Yasmine Simon is one of them.
She is a wife of Mr. Laurent Vincenti who is a renowned graphic designer, and she is also a textile designer herself.

Yasmine is now into bag0making with her own textile, and showed me several bags of hers in Paris. She also told me that she is very interested in Hinaya textiles, and I suggested her to make several bags with our fabrics. She was so excited with joy.

As soon as I got back to Japan, and selected some textiles and send them to her in Paris, then she worked on so hard without going for a vacation. She completed 6 bags, and send them to Kyoto in a month. They arrived today. As I promised her in Paris, I will bring these bags to a trade show in New York.

Her husband, Mr. Laurent Vansanti had created logos and worked on visual identities for Air France, La Poste, Peugeot etc., many of best companies in France. Yasmine x Hinaya bag collaboration started as a spin-off when I was introduced to her husband, Laurent. He encourages her a lot, and I am ecited about it, too.

As I feel her passion for the collection, I would love to bring a good result from our trunk show in NYC to keep on moving this project.
