– When I draw, I do not draw for me. It’s for an ideal of woman more feminine than me. Now I try to get in this feminine world.

Between two flights to Asia, the rangy slender hyper active Karine conceives and organizes her collections and makes her prototypes and goes to professional trades and sells her collections. She loves India and tomorrow she’ll take off for Beijing. This big traveler defines the “Karine Jean” brand style as:

– Romantic, a bit rock’n’roll, with an unpretentious hippie chic influence. I need to feel comfortable. In my fabrics selection from Japan, India and Italy: it has to be a bit shiny and fun!

Her customers are “deeply urban”. And her collections are retailed in few Marais and 7^th Arrondissement of Paris boutiques and also in Asia: Japan, Korea and Taiwan

And when I notice her blouse is the master piece of this collection, break, thinking look, Karine agrees :

– It’s really my thing. I find my inspiration in memories of my mum, I got frames.
