Winner of the 2016 Galeries Lafayette prize at the Hyères International Fashion and Photography Festival, Rolf Ekroth has designed a unisex capsule collection for Galeries Lafayette.

For the third consecutive year, the collaboration between Galeries Lafayette and the International Fashion and Photography Festival in Hyères is extended by giving carte blanche to one of the competition finalists to create a capsule collection with the Galeries Lafayette brand. Both a mentoring programme and an exercise focused on the challenges of production and distribution on a department store scale, this collaboration allows the young designer to create a capsule collection in the image of his or her creative universe that will have seduced the Galeries Lafayette jury of experts.

For the capsule designed in collaboration with Galeries Lafayette, Rolf has imagined a collection that is faithful to his creative universe: "I am always inspired by historical events, particularly sports documentaries", he explains. From the screen, he extracts images and patterns that he mixes with technical materials to create contemporary silhouettes. This line of parkas, capes and sneakers is no exception to the rule and gives a result mixing sportswear and elegance, right in the spirit of the times.

*Every day, Galeries Lafayette works to reveal the energy of creation for the beautiful, the good and the well. Our company is convinced of the century-old commitment of its founders, who were convinced that the pulse of society is taken from the wrists of its artists.
We are happy to share this vocation with the Villa Noailles, which today brings together fashion professionals, the general public and young designers for this unique and multidisciplinary festival, reflecting the incredible creative energy of our time.
