What is the relationship between Djibril Cissé and Mr. Lenoir? All ! Because it is the same and unique person! Retired from football, the former French international created his streetwear line Mr. Lenoir, which he presents in the Marais.
The Archive 18-20 concept store welcomes the brand of the former lightning striker (Liverpool FC, AJ Auxerre, Lazio Rome, etc.) until January 17.
However, surprise, the quality of the materials, the cuts and the style are there. And Mr. Lenoir doesn't look out of place alongside the clothes by Isabelle Marant, Issey Miyake, Reebok, Stone Island, etc.
Passionate about fashion, Djibril Cissé, alias Mr. Lenoir, is also crazy about music. On the decks, he becomes DJ Tcheba, who had the luxury of opening for Mariah Carey at Bercy in 2016! Moreover, he entertained his audience by mixing on the day his brand arrived at Archive 18-20.
So there is life after football.

Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors.
