a magical garden blossoming with out-of-the-world hair accessories. He took
patterns from nature and transformed them: ginkgo leaves, autumn leaves, fir,
holly, dragonfly, butterfly......The combination of fine jewellery craftsmanship
and innovative mix of materials gave the nature-inspired collection a precious
yet edgy appeal. He is doing his A to Z to present the world's most coveted hair
accessories to the most stylish women.

POETIC GARDEN A to Z
Ginkgo, also known as maidenhair tree or silver apricot, is one of the oldest
trees on earth. The trees are famous for the spectacular sight of their autumn
foliage, creating a canopy of golden yellow that is mesmerizing to behold.
Deeply moved by the poetic scenery, Alexandre Zouari captured the grace and
elegance of unique fan-shaped ginkgo leaves in a collection of hair accessories
that is poetic and romantic in equal measure.

GINKGO LUXE / GINKGO LEAVESGINKGO LUXE hair band is the quintessential piece to see and be seen in this
season. The amazing combination of soft nappa leather with crystal trimming
and Swarovski "Crystal Fabric" gives the ginkgo leaves a romantic glow. The
champagne gold/white silver/silver grey version is a showstopper whereas the
black/grey/crystal blue version is sexy and mysterious. Also available in less
dramatic hair band, barrette, side comb and hair clip designs. For weekend chic,
you may opt for the GINKGO LEAVES plastic hair bands adorned with colourful
crystals to go with your sweater and jeans.

hair bands and barrettes are truly the stuff of dreams. Dedicated to the die-
hard romantics.

family. The gold leaf crown has since been associated with prestige and power.

into a collection of enchanting hair accessories. Dedicated to the modern-day
princesses and queens.
