It only exists in one copy, and this one has the shape of Fatou Diawara.
Jacquemus' wedding dress for spring-summer 2024 had everything from the works that gave its name to the fashion show called Les Sculptures.
In the middle of the paintings of the Maeght Foundation, passing in front of Giacometti's
Women
and Calder's installations, a living sculpture appeared.
Simon Porte Jacquemus' latest creation to show that day, the white dress moves from left to right, to the rhythm of the model's steps.
On the ivory bust the curves of her chest can be seen, like a Hellenistic sculpture in movement.
And if the dress seemed made for her, it was because it was made for her.

original sound - Jacquemus
In the video posted Monday, February 19 on the French brand's TikTok account, Fatou Diawara's body is delicately covered with strips of clay, from the top of her torso to mid-thigh, leaving her back bare.
“Little hands” hold the molding in place while it dries.
This clay bust is then covered with fine silk muslin, extending down to the model's ankles.
A fine tulle veil is finally attached to this sculpted bodice at the front, flying freely behind the wearer's back.
Both flexible and rigid, composed and seraphic, the Jacquemus bride is a sculpture among “The Sculptures”.
