Today we invite you to the atelier of a Parisian haute couture magician. An artist whose works are world famous and highly instagrammed but who prefers to remain in a shadow of big Fashion Houses.

This is second part of the interview. Please check earlier articles and our YouTube Channel to see the first part.

With Robert Mercier we met a bit more than a year ago at the occasion of his first personal exhibition in Paris within the fashion week.

Robert is an artisan of arts specialised in leather. In the Joyce Gallery he was presenting his independent collection “The Hitchbag” inspired by the artist’s favourite film director Alfred Hitchcock and his characters. It was a love at first sight.

The world of fashion started to talk about this gifted artist at the moment when Zendaya wore his iconic nude high-slit gown with a draped leather bodice at the Venice film festival while promoting the first part of ‘Dune’ movie. Signed Balmain, this dress was in reality conceived and made by our protagonist.

A thin edge of seduction and the consumerism fetish is thoroughly blurred in Acosta’s art in the use of both light, and dark tones. Bold lines serve as a fashionable juxtaposition of a peaceful dream-like state and a vivid color, representing action and presence in the moment.
