Inspiration from the Autumn Winter 2012/2013 collection

Metamorphosis of water…


This woman embodies a Hitchcockian heroine, a modern-day Grace Kelly, enigmatic, dangerous and impenetrable. Cold and sculptural, the silhouette stands out through a highly architectural volume for daytime and cocktails, more evanescent in the evening, wrapped in the lightness of chiffon with glacial and silvery reflections, like a fading apparition.
Water, an illusory adornment as ephemeral as it is limpid, trickles down the body, its furrows merely underlining the curves of this bewitching silhouette that sails between two waters.
Cold beauty with a sharp gaze, like ice, this crystalline rampart that draws its strength only from the fragility of its element…

Founded in 1984 in the heart of the Principality of Monaco, luxury ready-to-wear brand Jiki is the epitome of femininity and refinement.
In 2008, Théodore Giorgi, President of Tefilex Group, acquired the brand to breathe new life into it.
In September 2011, it undertook a profound change, both stylistically and creatively, with the appointment of a new Artistic Director Mehdi Soussane, a graduate of the Duperré School of Applied Arts.
Mehdi Soussane cut his teeth alongside Christian Lacroix, Alexander McQueen at Givenchy and, more recently, Peter Dundas at Ungaro.
Another new change is that production will take place entirely in France and Italy.
For the first time, Jiki organizes a presentation during Paris Fashion Week and launches its first line of leather goods at the same time.
