As the Bulgarian designer duo “On Aura Tout Vu” stormed Paris Haute Couture last week! Staying true to their name, the designers Livia Stoianova and Yassen Samouilov who’ve been putting on eccentric fashion shows twice a year in Paris since 2002, manage to give anyone who thinks they’ve seen it all something to write home about. 
In addition to their playful performances, “On aura tout vu” supplied Christian Lacroix, Dior and Givenchy with exclusive projects and are well known for dressing the frivolous dancers of the “Moulin Rouge”. It is hardly surprising then, that they like to play with kitsch when it comes to their Couture collection.
Dresses shaped like skeletons, frisky masks and hats, mirror applications, leather cutouts, fields of sequins and some fur (we can only hope that it was fake) brought some Studio 54 atmosphere to the garden of the Palais Royal, where the catwalk was set up.
And in Monaco this summer, they will set up a fashionable curiosity lab at Villa Sauber, where visitors can gawk at how the “On aura tout vu” twosome breathed new life in the collection of china dolls and robots donated by the passionate collector Madeleine Galéa, as they created miniature designs to reinterpret Monaco’s precious heritage in a scenographic set-up. A mash-up from Second Empire society gatherings to contemporary night clubbing scenes make up the jolly fantasy of “On aura tout vu” till January 29. Not to be missed!
