Jean Luc Connan + FTWWL

May 2, 2014
By

Inspiration from around the world comes to life in a multitude of mediums: clothing, jewelry, accessories and furniture (that’s right, furniture!).

FTWWL is featuring the work of:

Jean Luc Connan

P1140291 - Version 2

Connan’s use of fabric, embroidery and bold accessories like pompom tassels, are at the foundation of his uniquely designed home décor collection.

P1140280 - Version 2

Fabrics from Lake Titicaca, Peru are paired with cloth from Uzbekistan, where cultural diversity is plentiful.

Like a map, the embroidered cushions tell a story of rituals, scarifies, gods and goddesses. The Tumi axe is symbolic for good luck among Peruvians. The large tassels hanging from each end symbolize the Uru women living in Peru, who decorate their hair with pom pom and beads.

P1140304 - Version 2

Animal printed fabric trails along the edges of the chair, like a winding road through the hills and valleys of China’s landscape.

Have you ever sat in a chair covered with Swarovski crystals? Take a moment to enjoy the little things. The wooden frame is accented with crystals that will sparkle in the sunlight.

P1140263 - Version 2

 

Big enough to house two souls, united in love, with honor for one another and the gifts that the world has to offer.

Connan’s love seat is a one-of-a-kind piece that was created with love.

By bringing the wonders of the world together in his Paris studio, Connan has discovered the key to beauty, peace and everlasting love.

The human soul contains everything within you, from the emotions you feel to the morals you live by.

Our body is the cavity in which the soul flourishes. It is the source of energy, consciousness and love.

Use your body as your canvas for displaying your emotions and sharing your beliefs.

One does not need to flaunt their possessions to obtain self-acceptance.

Nothing compares to the feeling of Ethiopian cotton as it is placed gently upon your skin.

You cannot walk into a store with hopes of buying anything nearly as comfortable and well crafted as the hand-woven dresses we found in Ethiopia.

The fluffy white cotton that surrounds the plant’s seed is collected and woven into thread. As part of their daily routine.

There is nothing more pure than 100% Ethiopian cotton.

Sense the delicate breeze as the light and airy dress moves with the wind. Be rejuvenated by the warming sun as it reflects light off of the white fabric.

Simplistic design and intricate patterns make these dresses unlike any other.When you wear a piece from the Ethiopian Collection, you are wearing more than a dress; you are wearing the traditions, the beliefs and the spirits of each individual whose work has kept this tradition alive in Ethiopia.

Inspiration from Elsewhere

Words change meaning over time—so too does the meaning of fashion.

Image-18 copy

A mosaic of cultural symbols and ideas turn into the products we buy and the trends we follow.

Without one, there cannot be the other.

 

Batik designs from Indonesia and bead-work from Thailand are the results of cross-culture collaborations.

Take for instance, the work of world-renowned photographer, Seydou Keïta.

 

 Traditional african dress and western eloquence gave the people, and the clothing they wore,  a voice worth hearing.

When we recognize the diversity around us, we have the opportunity to create new works of art.

The FTWWL African Print Bags captures beauty from all corners of the world.
