Julie de Libran’s Favorite Things

“A few times a year I do trunk shows abroad. I trust nothing more than Rimowa to help me transport my couture pieces.”

“I am a very tactile person. I love to sketch and design physically, but when it comes to everything digital, my iPad is my best companion.”

“I don’t often wear lipstick, but when I do, it has to be Sisley. Not only are their products amazing, but the team at Sisley are good friends and a close partner of my brand.”

“Preparing for the next couture show is always a very busy time. I love to unwind by doing yoga. It’s become my meditation.”

“I adore the craftmanship behind Diptyque. If you come visit my store, you will almost certainly find a lit Diptyque candle.”

“If you spot me in the street, I will surely be wearing these Celine cat-eye glasses. I have lens correction in mine, making them indispensable.”

“An absolutely essential everyday item that can always be found in my bag.”

“Daniela Andrier is a dear friend of mine and her work for Prada scents is fantastic. I especially love the Iris perfume, named after her daughter.”

“Anya’s Back To Nature collection is truly inspiring, creating sustainable, organic pieces that can go back into the ground.”

“My ready-to-wear collection is numbered and limited. All fabrics come from deadstock. I love seeing my pieces appear secondhand, as my design and quality is made to last forever.”

“Manolo Blahnik truly has the most beautiful shoes. You never go wrong when wearing Manolos.”

“Every collection starts at my desk. When doing my sketches, it’s super important for me to be surrounded by inspiring design.”
