Flower Profusion Interview with France de Griessen

France, what are you working on at the moment?

I recently finished my album, “Electric Ballerina” which is set for its digital release on July 4th and will be available in stores September 26th. The album is a metaphor for the life of an artist trying to find a balance.

Why did you choose this florist?

I chose this florist because they have the most beautiful roses. I love their irregularity and refined colors. I also do a lot of watercolor painting so I really relate to the poetry of colors.

What is the least punk thing you have done lately?

I love watching old aerobics videos on Youtube.

What is the first CD you bought?

I bought the New York Dolls album because I liked the cover of the album. I loved punk glam records with the guys wearing makeup and the extravagant outfits.

 When you were a teenager, you confess to having looked at…

Photos of Diane Arbus and Larry Clark

Can you tell us about your meeting with Bruce LaBruce?

I loved working with Bruce LaBruce, and I love his work. We had an epistolary contact and I ended up sending him a copy of my album. He liked my music and several months later asked if he could use one of my songs for his movie trailer. Later, I met him in Berlin to do the music video for my song “I Want to be You" produced by Le Chat Qui Fume.

 Why did you choose to collaborate with him?

He has a predilection for romance and trash and is a master of colors. He is a longtime Hollywood director of dreamlike and trash films who has no equivalent.

What is one song you are ashamed to admit to having on your iPod?             

“La Feria de Cepillin” by Cepillin

What is your story with cats? The focus for your next project?

I have two cats. The animal represents us well with their instincts. My watercolor paintings are a bit like my emotional journal. I don’t eat animals though.

So you have a tattoo fetish. Which of your tattoos is your favorite?

My garter tattoo. The passion of playing music is very sensual. I wanted to choose a symbol and raise the sensuality to sexuality.

I am in the process of making bracelets with words on them, any suggestions? Freedom

Which song do you want to put with your interview?

The music video by Bruce.

Flower Profusion in Saint Germain

My obsession with flowers is comparable to my obsession with Miu Miu shoes. I can spend as much money on flowers as I do on Miu Miu's and I still want to have more. During an interview I recently did with France de Griessen, a singer and songwriter, I was introduced to this flower shop in Saint-Germain-de-Près, Rosa Luna. Rosa Luna offers something special. The roses here actually smell like roses, which is rare to find at most florists.

Aside from the flowers, the shop is also very pretty itself with it's soft decor including a pastel colored chandelier. The shop owner was very kind and allowed us to take photos inside for our shoot. Here is a preview of some of the pictures from the shoot. Check back tomorrow for the rest of the pictures, as well as the interview we did with France.

On Our Radar: Shourouk

We are all excited about the new article Style.com just ran about us! The article details our brand’s style and status as one to keep an eye out for. They also included a picture of the gorgeous Blue Leitmotiv Pink Yildiz, shown here. Click here to get our equally fabulous Leitmotiv Miami now from our e-shop!

They had a lot of great things to say about us, including one quote we thought we'd share with you:

"These pieces don’t just state, they roar—case in point, her crystal-covered lion’s-head bib necklace. Rowr."

Tiger Necklace

Our Tiger Necklace is great example of a piece that really roars!

Naco is an alien in the planet of fashion, a bundle of energy, a designer, a revolutionary, a party animal, a life-eater seizing every day without thinking of the past : a luxury industry crasher.
