About
GAILLARD VIVANT
Sharp Silhouettes. Made in Berlin.
GAILLARD VIVANT reaches into the historical archive of the cut and removes the protocol. Clean lines, distinctive colour, uncompromising craft.
At the core stand the Frazer and the Justaucoeur - not reinterpretations, but new garments. The Frazer draws its construction from the tailcoat. The Justaucoeur draws from the baroque justaucorps - vertical, close to the body, without ceremony. Both carry their origin without showing it.
Natural materials — denim, fine wool, silk — meet lacquered leather, metallic surfaces and technical materials. Every piece begins as an iduvidual prototype in the GAILLARD VIVANT studio.
