French fashion designer Charles Anastase first found fame with his pencil, before setting up his own label in 2004. His cool doodles could be found gracing the pages of Purple Fashion, Dazed & Confused and DoingBird. Then he tried life as a fashion stylist and was equally as successful at that, working with his family and friends as real models and shooting for Jalouse and Libe Style.

Known for his razor-sharp wit and love of all things dark, he looks at fairytales, psychoanalysis and art to inspire his whimsical creations...
