Directed by Alexandre Parizet who followed Lamine Badian Kouyaté in his atelier over a few days. The idea was to observe the Xuly Bët designer’s work, his hands and his intimate reflections. We then see the garment take life on choreographer Fatou Diarra.
XULY.Bët which means “keep your eyes open” in wolof, is a Parisian fashion house founded in 1991. With an African inheritance, XULY.Bët is best known for its use of recycled clothing to create high fashion, reshaping found garments by cutting, stitching that range from the subtle shaping to the complete transformation of the clothing function.
