 | Dearest | | 22/01/2011 | | The offspring of designing duo simon-pierre toussaint and alice knackfuss, dearest is a tailored, menswear line with clean shapes and precise cuts. alice and simon-pierre are brussels-based, but met at the festival d'hyères in 2009. they quickly realized they could work on a new project, bouncing ideas off each other and combining their strengths. the result is a controlled, elegant line, with stylish sporty pieces, crisp shirts and reworked jackets. their ideal man has a feel for formality, but cannot bear the stiffness. cotton, wool felt and supple leather drape the body, adding a layer of softness to constructed garments. a desire for warmth and connectedness defines what they do 'dearest is a word in english that stands for something or someone that is truly loved. our pieces behave differently on each body, in an intimate, creative and rather sensitive way.'
