The art displayed was from many different areas of the Asian continent, such as India, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, Japan, the Himalayas, Kazakhstan and more. Truly worth seeing if you happen to be in Paris (especially when the weather isn't ideal for outdoor exploring). They also have a restaurant downstairs that was opening to the public on the 30th of January.
The collection explores harmony between national roots and the needs of a modern woman who honors the past, while valuing herself. The name TAMYR translates from Kazakh as “root.” It symbolizes a profound connection to cultural heritage, respect for traditions, and their harmonious reinterpretation in fashion. The collection draws parallels between Kazakh artisanal traditions and contemporary trends. Inspiration from Kazakhstan’s rich cultural legacy is evident in its unique textural aesthetics and intricate handcraftsmanship.
TAMYR is not only a tribute to the elders, but inspired by the younger generation, who found a unique Kazakh cultural style in a contemporary context. This concept is expressed through the combination of sophisticated modern tailoring with ethnic nuances, reflected in the collection’s textures, colors, and celebratory spirit, reminiscent of “toi” (Kazakh festivities).
The designer Gaziza Shabdarbayeva envisions the brand’s mission as a harmonious fusion of past and present.
“Modern Muses” draws its essence from women who have defied conventions to redefine their eras. Figures such as Simone Veil, Gisèle Halimi, Angela Davis, Fatima Mernissi, Zaha Hadid, Maya Angelou, Maria Callas, Michele Fitoussi, Virginie Despentes, Marguerite Yourcenar, Oum Kalthoum, Colette… All embody a legacy that transcends ages. Through their strength, creativity, and resilience, they light a path of transformation and freedom. These women, bearers of innovative ideas, are timeless beacons, inspiring generations to reinvent themselves.
Lena Erziak invites us on a journey through the depths of melancholy and the beauty that emerges from it. Each piece is an ode to the complexity of human emotions, capturing the duality between darkness and light, nostalgia and beauty.
In a world where emotions are often masked by noise and light, the collection plunges us into the heart of the human soul. Entirely crafted in black, each creation embodies the depth of melancholy, a complex and introspective emotion that reveals a rare and sublime beauty.
“Melancholia” transcends the ephemeral trends of fashion to offer a timeless experience, where each piece is designed as a work of art. The dark fabrics, architectural cuts, and delicate details tell a story of nostalgia and contemplation, capturing the essence of beauty with unparalleled elegance.
The collection is composed of silk gazar, silk organza, duchess satin, Calais lace, brocade, and silk crepe. Notable is the exceptional work of feather artisans who adorned the looks with rooster, goose, and ostrich feathers. All the embroideries are handmade.
In homage to poetic solitude, Lena Erziak invites us to embrace our deepest feelings and find light in the darkness. By celebrating its Melancholia, the house attempts to redefine the codes of beauty and seeks to make us reflect on the importance of emotion in our existence.
“Triumph, pleasant flowers! Spread your perfumes, Revive your colors! »
"Inconstant Butterfly, Fly in your bocage!" Stop, Suspend the course Of your fickle flame! »
21 looks, unique, entirely handmade in the Maison's workshops. A choice of exceptional materials, all made in France and respectful of the environment: Solstiss lace, silk, satin, tulle, for an impeccable fit! Magical cuts, contrasting royal solar gold with the depth of midnight blue and the lightness of anise green. The flower embroideries required a month of work, cut and painted by hand, another month to create the embroidery on the trouser suit, and two months for the pleating of the dresses. From fitted trouser suits, to evening dresses and more artistic looks, highlighting the House's know-how, the new collection of La Métamorphose demonstrates that art is in the DNA of the creative sisters.
The butterfly dress, entirely painted by hand, landing in the extraordinary garden of La Métamorphose, reminds us that our land is this garden, and that there is still time for the flowers to triumph again...

The flowers of rebirth and renewal bloom in the tropical garden of La Métamorphose for this spring summer 2021 couture collection.
Light, airy, delicate dresses in which silk, chiffon and embroidered tulles mingle ; hand-cutted petals embellish the shoulders of the evening gowns. The colors are frank, assumed, like the desire to return to recklessness and sweet summer dreams. Like an outbreak, we go from pastel blue, to nude pink, to powder violet, then come fuchsia and royal blue, symbol of rebirth. An assuredly joyful and romantic collection. The collection is made only with fabrics made in France, Ewa and Margaret, the designers, once again underline their attachment to France and to French know-how. The final touch of the collection is the flower organza wedding dress, worn in two versions: a closed flower which opens up thanks to a silk belt and transforms into a long dress. The dress required 100 hours of modeling and 4 weeks of assembly, petal by petal in order to give the result of a blooming flower. Each petal is glazed and strass embroidered in order to give the illusion of the white rose wet by the morning .
The shoes created especially for the collection by Ginissima use the fabrics and colors of the collection.
