Haitian-American fashion designer, Azede Jean-Pierre's RTW Spring 2015 show was nothing less than spectacular.  The longtime, one to watch designer of the fashion industry, showed exactly what she's made of.  




Jean-Pierre recently dressed FLOTUS Michelle Obama for the August cover of Essence Magazine.  



Jean-Pierre's collection was full of sheer fabric, and lace with leaf print separates, and more of her infamous animal imprints. The designer describes it as, "Mother nature walking through a park"





 The designer also ventured into knits, with crop tops, skirts, and dresses with fringed details. 





Shes a young designer who continues to grow and find herself.  We look forward to see what else she has in stored.

This time with Haitian Designer, 

                AZEDE JEAN-PIERRE



I stumbled across this picture of Solange when she attended big sis Beyonce's premier of “Life is but a Dream”.  I had to do a double take when I noticed the caption, "by Haitian born design Azede Jean-Pierre."  What?  How did I not know this?  

Well apparently I was one of the few who hadn't heard of Ms. Pierre, for this 23 year old has been called "the designer to watch" from some of the biggest names in the biz! 

Born in Haiti and raised in Atlanta, Jean-Pierre attended Savannah College of Art and Design.  She got her start in the fashion industry by interning for major luxury brands like Ralph Rucci and Ohne Titel.  Then Jean-Pierre launched her own New York-based line ,with her debut  Spring/Summer 2011 collection which put her on the map.   





Neiman Marcus in Atlanta also took notice and has featured one of Jean-Pierre's dresses in their store window.  


In her last collection for Fall '13, Jean-Pierre was inspired by the anatomy of a beetle.  With Fabrics, such as silk, satin, and leather structured in geometric shapes, and plenty of intricately stitched knitwear. You actually see the body of the beetle in every piece.  

Take a look, we are sure you will love this rising star as much as we do.  And did I mention she was Haitian?  So proud! 










"The Azede Jean-Pierre customer is a feminine woman who is not afraid to flirt with androgyny once in awhile  Her demeanor is that of a lady with a hidden sensuality about her. She is both delicate and dangerous."
