« TO OFFER ON MOTHER'S DAY: THE SCARF OF COURSE ! WE WILL ENJOY PUTTING IT ON IN WINTER AND SUMMER: A MUST HAVE ! »

Hello Chrysoline, Clémentine and Clémence. What is your F(Amis)lle story to all 3?

CLEMENCY

Clémentine is my friend and partner , and Chrysoline is my friend. Both are the sisters of Capucine, one of my best friends... A hell of a mix!

CHRYSOLINE

We take the same ones and start over: Clémentine is my big sister, and Clémence is my sister Clémentine's partner , but also my other big sister Capucine's best friend. Welcome to the north!

CLEMENTINE

Chrysoline is my sister and Clémence is my friend and partner, but also my sister Capucine's BFF! We love each other and have seen each other regularly for years.

If you had to sum up the Balzac Paris x Apaches Collection collaboration in 3 words?

CLEMENCY

Desire, evidence, heart!

CHRYSOLINE

F(amis)lle, US, indispensable.

CLEMENTINE

Together, obvious, joyful.

What is the ideal piece from the Balzac Paris x Apaches Collections collab to offer for Mother's Day?

CLEMENCY

The Latika or Manika scarf , it lights up and gives style to every outfit! The mother will also love having her husband or children put it on. This is the piece that we love to offer (or even to offer ourselves)!

CHRYSOLINE

The scarf of course ! The one that we will offer and that we will enjoy putting on in winter and summer on the necks of the whole F(amis)lle: a must have !

CLEMENTINE

I'm not very original: the scarf also without hesitation! But as the whole family will quickly appropriate it, the second essential is in my opinion the Buddha bag to slip into the gift box...

Tell us an anecdote that the three of you experienced together:

CLEMENCY

Anecdotes with Clémentine, we have a thousand! We've been stuck together since 2017, so we've lost count of the giggles ...sometimes embarrassing!

Otherwise, Chrysoline and Clémentine were both at my wedding last summer. Chrysoline had given birth 2 weeks before, and Capucine, her sister and that of Clémentine, was my best man!

CHRYSOLINE

Laughter, united for life, with my sisters we are very close, we form a united team! Our best friends join this team, the more we laugh the crazier we are! Clémence, queen of the dance floor, therefore has her place with all of US.

CLEMENTINE

We lived many moments together which were important moments , our respective marriages among others! So we inevitably shared a lot of laughter, dancefloor, discussions that lasted late into the night...

Why is the Balzac Paris x Apaches Collections collab TPR (Always More Responsible)?

CLEMENTINE & CLÉMENCE

Because it brings to life a unique and ancestral craft: the block-print. Going to find such craftsmanship where it excels, making our contribution to support the Indian population, and making this art shine is in our opinion TPR! And of course, the cotton from organic farming for the scarves and the sending of the parts by boat to limit our carbon footprint.

CHRYSOLINE

It is with joy that we make room in our collections for Indian know-how and craftsmanship. We made this rhyme with our dynamic TPR: these accessories made the trip by boat and our scarves are made of cotton from organic farming.

Are you more of a vacation with family or friends?

CLEMENCY

Rather family! Last summer, the Cyclades with the family was paradise!

CHRYSOLINE

MIX and MATCH! We were rocked by the holidays in tribe where family and friends were reunited. I love to carry on the tradition.

CLEMENTINE

The 2! I will even add friends, large family, and refocusing on a small family!

Are you more of a shopping bag, clutch or banana bag?

CLEMENCY

Banana , so practical! Or the Buddha 48h bag , ideal for travelling! Flexible, light, accepted in the cabin: it is perfect.

CHRYSOLINE

I'm pretty banana in my shopping bag !

CLEMENTINE

Are you more Lille, Paris or Le Touquet?

CLEMENCY

Lille! I love living there!

CHRYSOLINE

The three cities ! It is this combination of the three that makes the charm of each!

CLEMENTINE

Lille! With great Parisian weekends from time to time.

“ON HOLIDAYS, IT'S MIX AND MATCH! WE WERE LOVED BY HOLIDAYS IN THE TRIBE WHERE FAMILIES AND FRIENDS WERE TOGETHER. I LOVE KEEPING ON TRADITION! »
