What drew you to fashion?<\/strong><br \/>\nAt the time, I was part of a collective called <strong>La Bonne Merveille<\/strong>, where I designed window displays for Galeries Lafayette. By dint of manipulating different materials, especially fabrics, I wanted to make volume, cut. I wanted to do manual work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why did you choose the hats?<\/strong><br \/>\nSimply because I realized that I really had plenty of them at home. I wanted to create my own.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your pieces are unisex and are also aimed at children, do you adapt some pieces to this sector?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy hats can indeed be made in small sizes. However, I do not create according to the child. My pieces are quite expensive, between 250 and 500 euros; ethically, I wouldn&#8217;t be comfortable with that. I have children of my own and am not in favor of this type of purchase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can you tell us about the Summer 2010 collection?<\/strong><br \/>\nFor this collection, I created the <strong>Lindon<\/strong> model, inspired by the film &#8220;Barry Lindon&#8221;. Based on the tricorn, it is adjustable thanks to a system of snaps. There are 2 versions: one 100% cotton, the other, more upscale, all panama and leather. You can wear it asymmetrically, giving it a more cowboy profile. The main idea of this collection is to protect from the sun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>www.thomas-dimetto.com<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Interview by Isabelle Huber<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few questions to Thomas Dimetto, creator of the Dimetto fine handmade hats brand, who marries audacity and rigor.
