In January, in the middle of men's fashion week, at the end of rue des Gravilliers, we see Baba and Mamadou. They wear the habit with majesty.
They look like two Maasai warriors, slender and proud. We stop them and, after a short discussion, we learn that they personalize their clothes and that yes, thank you, everything is fine for this duo of models because many brands - Off White, Ralph Simon, Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior or even Ermenegildo Zegna- play the game of diversity.
