Snap! A passing truck's sensuous fender with chrome highlights. Snap! A bakery woman's hair askew. But more often music is the driver. "For three days I zap MTV videos and my CD's ... the music goes int my blood... I'm floating somewhere ... there is an image of a woman ...the first 20 sketches come. Wrong. By 30 sketches the image flows. Okay, great. Now the concept must breathe, Over dinner for one at Jardin Des Pâtes, I go alone, fit the idea for each girl, for each ensemble."
Next, to the atelier and the team. Up to 15 assistants ... creating in silence. "When I'm creating no one talks, the atmosphere is set".
On the catwalks ... Givenchy, McQueen, Laroche, Tayama, Kenzo ... Jurnjack's vision is effortless...inspired and visionary!
