A unique piece inspired by the elements that surround us: land and sea. A cape that creates a sculptural silhouette with its ample volume and high collar. The raw texture of the felted wool highlights the know-how of the Breton wool industry with authenticity and naturalness. As for the shape,
is inspired by traditional Breton clothing, in particular the kapot worn by women on special occasions, but also by sailors in various Breton countries. A tribute to the kabig worn by seaweed gatherers on the north coast of Finistère, with its two belly pockets. The elements of the motif evoke the seaweed found in the tidal flats revealed at low tide, but also the roots symbolizing our attachment to our Breton lands. The vegetal colors of green and beige evoke both the coastline and the moors in the heart of Brittany.
