ICONOfly publishes now and then a journal, 64 pages, bilingual English and French shared all over the world with high-end partners in the art, fashion and hospitality networks. Each issue is an introspective study on one fashion accessory. By curating essays, poems, and artworks, ICONOfly explores the life and history of these objects through unconventional and innovative perspectives.
Première revue d’art, de luxe et d’histoire autour d’un accessoire de mode, ICONOfly renoue avec la commande artistique en invitant des artistes à créer une œuvre originale directement inspirée par l’accessoire, devenu muse et icône. Chaque numéro est prétexte à la réunion d’univers de création, tels que la mode, l’art, l’artisanat, la gastronomie, la musique, la littérature et la BD avec un seul accessoire pour fil conducteur. Les oeuvres créees font l’objet d’éditions numérotées et signées. ICONOfly a un petit format. Il s’emporte, se garde et se collectionne tel un objet précieux.
(Each issue 1 - 6 : 40.000 print copies +).
Attache-Moi, translated from French, means TIE ME UP and this is really what we wish to do. Tie you up with our scents : ATTACHE-MOI launched with LE BON MARCHE in Paris in 2009 and ATTACHE-MOI 55 introduced with BARNEYS NEW YORK in 2013. Our latest opus ATTACHE-MOI/ IT WAS A TIME THAT WAS A TIME created with British artist Shezad Dawood debuted this Fall 2015 with PIONEER WORKS in Brooklyn, and Crossing The Line Festival in New York. Please visit the stores of our exclusive partners. Enjoy our perfumes. We took great passion in conceiving them.
With love,
Olivia
