United Fashion event: Lille 2019
Tricote Moi un Tattoo is the story of two worlds that meet, the knitting world of our grandmothers merges with the universe “trash” tattoo, mixing their different sets of needles. These collections 100% Made in France find their singularities by the presence of jacquard realized here as works of art. Behind each motif lie a story and a symbolic inherent in the world of tattooing. The iconic fleece sweatshirt turns into a second skin, letting us wear ephemeral tattoos.
The colorful streetwear brand was founded in 2014 by stylist Caroline Juteau. True knitting enthusiast, it is on the banks of LISAA then Chardon Savard in Paris that Carolina undertakes a double specialization in styling and knitting. To deepen her know-how and technique, she went to Brighton where she worked on knitting machines and then in Barcelona for screen printing.
Always drawn to the world of tattooing, her imagination leads her naturally to the marriage of knitting- that of our grandmothers — and tattooing.
Photographer Vadim Ouaki will join the adventure a few years. He made his weapons at Satellite, a brand of fantasy jewelry, before embarking on the adventure TMUT. From the world of art to the world of fashion, Vadim brings his eyes and his sensitivity to the visuals knits me a tattoo.
