Clotilde Toussaint, Modiste à Paris, Meilleur Ouvrier de France
Clotilde Toussaint is a milliner who lives and works in Paris where she designs and creates hats, headdresses, and other accessories.
She studied at the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne and completed her
apprenticeship with Christian Dior. Clotilde has worked for several Paris fashion houses, including Jean-Paul Gaultier, as well as for high-end Parisian and international entertainment shows, like the Moulin Rouge, Holiday on Ice, Disneyland Paris, the Théâtre du Chatelet…
She values excellence and traditional know-how, which are evident in her couture creations that are born from an intimate dialogue with materials and craftsmanship. Whether creating from vintage or contemporary supplies or materials diverted and re-imagined from their original use, it is through her touch and direct feeling with form and texture that her work takes shape.
In 2011, Clotilde received the title of Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF).
As she entered Les Ateliers de Paris in 2012, Clotilde Toussaint naturally decides to create her own line of hats and brand.
While continuing to offer her know-how to show business and fashion professionals, she creates custom-made products for customers in search of the perfect hat or headdress for a celebration, an event or simply for the daily life, in harmony with their morphology, style and personality.
Listening and talking with the customer is essential because it is from this exchange that the hat comes into being.
