AZ Factory, the luxury house founded by Alber Elbaz in collaboration with Richemont, is gearing up to present its next collection in Paris on October 2nd. What makes this upcoming show particularly exciting is that it will be the creative team from within AZ Factory itself that will take the spotlight. Norman René Devera and Peter Movrin, who lead the studio, have been chosen to unveil their unique collection named “AZ Factory by them” for the Spring/Summer 2024 season.
The designers have impressive backgrounds in the luxury fashion industry. Norman René Devera, who hails from the Philippines but was raised in London, began his career at Vivienne Westwood and went on to work for esteemed brands such as Giles Deacon, Céline, Louis Vuitton, and Calvin Klein under Raf Simons, before joining Versace. Peter Movrin, born in Slovenia, graduated from Central Saint Martins in London and is renowned for his voluminous and sculptural designs. He has collaborated with the likes of Lady Gaga, Beyonce, and Bjork, and has provided consultation services to luxury labels like Alexander McQueen, Burberry, and Céline.
While AZ Factory has previously collaborated with guest designers called “Amigos” for its collections, this time the brand has chosen to empower its own creative team and celebrate their ability to blend different influences into a fresh aesthetic. This decision reflects AZ Factory’s commitment to nurturing talent within its own ranks and championing inclusivity and collaboration.
The fashion industry as a whole has been moving towards a more inclusive and diverse approach, showcasing a wider range of designers and perspectives. AZ Factory’s focus on its own team for this collection aligns perfectly with this industry trend and showcases its dedication to fostering and promoting talent from within.
Devera and Movrin’s collection is expected to be a true representation of their unique design perspectives and influences. Drawing from their extensive experience in the luxury fashion world, we can anticipate a collection that will captivate and inspire fashion enthusiasts.
AZ Factory maintains its reputation as an industry leader by continuing to innovate and push boundaries. By providing a platform for its own team members to showcase their talent, the brand reaffirms its commitment to creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity.
