HISTORY

Sauvage’s first collection, ‘This Is Not A Suit’ (Collection 000-1 to 000–11), featured a capsule collection of contemporary tailoring. Each of the eleven pieces was based on tailoring archetypes, adapted to create an A. Sauvage signature silhouette. This adhered to the confines of traditional tailoring but slimmed and simplified shapes while gently subverting subtle elements such as cut, fabric and even fastenings. The collection received critical acclaim with Sauvage being described as “an unusual multi-talent” and the Observer declaring, “‘this is not a suit,’ it’s a way of life.
