IT'S ALL ABOUT JOY


THE PERFECT DRESS FOR YOU

We all have the dream of our perfect dress. The unique dress in which we feel strong, beautiful, glamorous, enthusiastic, sexy, and confident is our second skin. The dress expresses who we are. It touches the soul and appreciates the very essence of the woman in her whole being. We feel the joy and the mood-booster when we wear it - we sense the energy of this, for us, perfect dress. I call it a "power dress".


EXQUISITE AND SUSTAINABLE FABRICS

Each piece we wear has a unique energy that depends on the material, the way it is created, the aesthetics of the look, the cheerful colors, and the message it contains. The touch of an exquisite fabric on our skin, the drape of gorgeous material, and the way it fits our body and flatters our figure make us radiate from the inside out. A strengthening feeling is immediately noticeable when we experience the precious material on our body.

All "12ROBES" dresses originate from high-end materials. These exclusive fabrics emerge in traditional manufactories with qualified know-how in France, Switzerland, and Italy. While wrapped in the noblest materials, the dress provides true pleasure. The shapes and fabrics never constrict - they envelop our bodies in a light, flowing, and playful way.


LIMITED EDITION DRESSES - 12 of its kind

What we wear influences who we are. The dress is the first message we send to our environment about self expression and authenticity. One of the characteristics of a handmade couture dress is its uniqueness. Therefore "12ROBES" and ART&COUTURE dresses are available in a limited edition of 12. Handmade unique dresses meant to last. Each design provide a numbered label: ROBE N°1/12 - ROBE N°12/12


HAND-MADE DRESS - CELEBRATE CRAFTSMANSHIP

The dress is a celebration for the senses. It touches the soul and appreciates the very essence of the woman in her whole being. A handmade dress is characterized by the beauty of the craftsmanship, the quality of the exclusive fabric, and the feeling it provides you with. 

We are cherishing the beauty of excellence. Every dress is sophisticatedly crafted with great attention to detail using couture techniques of traditional craftsmanship. These treasures are sustainably handcrafted - appreciated for many years to come.


SLOWCOUTURE - TIMELESS AND SEASONLESS

Clothing involves responsibility and communication. Before we start speaking, we are perceived through our appearance, our clothes. We express who we are. A couture dress is about style and values. We wear this dress forever and detach ourselves from constricting consumerism. We are not looking for an object - a dress. We are looking for fulfillment that comes from this dress. The creation of these timeless and seasonless dresses is a gentle continuous process - independent of fashion seasons, collections and free of any time frame.


MADE TO ORDER in SOUTH OF FRANCE

A handmade dress is an investment for a long time. It's not about trends, about what's "in" or "out". It's about quality, style, craftsmanship, longevity, and being happy with what we wear.

Every single dress is made to order to ensure that there is no waste. We only produce what is needed. Therefore, we can respond to your unique wishes and make a special customization right away. In addition, you may choose your favorite design in a different color or fabric. Your dream dress is handmade in our atelier in the South of France and delivered within two to three weeks of ordering.


COLORS - SOURCE OF JOY

Colors are a testimony to the emotions and joy of life. They are much more than just a hue that our eye perceives. Colors contribute to empowering the body. We immerse ourselves in them and are constantly surrounded by them. They influence their wearer and their entire environment. They are a source of energy and part of everyday life. We are colorful beings - immerse yourself in this world of color with a "12ROBES" or "ART&COUTURE" dress.

ART&COUTURE

Concept

„ART&COUTURE“ is based on the idea of converting unique artwork into exclusive dresses. I wanted to translate the feelings that arise from looking at a beautiful and touching painting into a wearable experience.

What is wearable art? It's more than a dress. We feel the art on our skin and blur the boundaries of the art experience. "ART&COUTURE" dresses carry the artist's message and have an energy of their own. The image on the dress comes alive and lives its story on the flowing fabric that gently envelops and accompanies the wearer. The visual medium is the woman and the dress - expanding the frame of reference and adding to the appreciation of the entire artwork. 

This project is not only about the creation of wearable art dresses, but also about the collaborative feminine project in which each of us participates, helping to create a wonderful whole. 


Creation

I see the dress as a celebration of the senses. It touches the soul and appreciates the very essence of the wearer in her whole being. Everything
that surrounds us effects us, especially what we wear on our skin. Each of these products, which all harbor energy, history, values, quality and beauty for us as viewers, should be in harmony with our essence. We express who we are. 

Expressive colors are the unifying aspect of all the images. An outstanding aspect of life in the South, which attracts artists from everywhere, is the light and the magic of colors. The art dresses are a tribute to life, joy, beauty, and lightness, which is always a part of it. We immerse ourselves in them and are constantly surrounded by them. This is a source of joy, gratitude, inspiration, and a blessing for the soul.


Production

The first step in creating an ART&COUTURE dress is to take the perfect photo that will reproduce the artwork as faithfully as possible. The harmony of the overall impression needs great attention. How and where can I represent the painting as a whole? Where do I use, for example, partial sections of the image? 

The name of the painting is printed on the hem of the front part. When drawing the plan for the printing, it is also important to me to have a high utilization in the cutting. I try to achieve about 90 - 95% and thus have little fabric waste later. After receiving the first sample to check the colors, the fabric for the entire dress will be printed. The first prototype of the dress is created. The whole process takes about 7 - 8 weeks.

Each dress is made by hand exclusively to order by me in my studio. Attention to sustainability, quality, and longevity is the basis of my work. The basis of the realization is excellent quality. Each dress is lined with silk and crafted with great attention to detail.


Artists

I have had the great pleasure of realizing some of Céline Chourlet's, Joelle Meissner's, Marina's and Lesego Seoketsa art-works.

The wonderful art of Céline Chourlet, originally from Chamigny en Seine et Marne, is profoundly inspired by Mediterranean life. Her very cheerful and colorful painting is described as a "gorgeous dream". These canvases are an invitation to take the time, in a Mediterranean garden, by the water or in the shade of an umbrella pine. Céline paints theses canvases in acrylic. www.galerie-neel-chourlet.com

Joelle Meissner visualizes and manifests the artwork in her mind's eye; she has long since overcome altered realities as well as perspective pictorial orders and paints clearly and uncompromisingly. She assembles contoured figures, shapes and colors according to her own rules. Her colorful, expressive and feminine art-work should communicate with the viewer and challenge him to think the painting further. Raised in Berlin, Joelle is half French and half Italian and she now works and lives mainly in Nice. www.facebook.com/Joelle-Meissner

Marina is primarily known as the designer and sculptor of the famous and joyful "Les musiciennes". These graceful and entertaining sculptures can be admired at many places at the Côte d'Azur. Enthusiastic about her wonderful sculptures, I was very pleased to discover her rare paintings. „Le Pavot“ are the poppies, in original size, which Marina's mother brought with her from the neighbours garden. Marina, originally from Georgia, where she worked as a successful writer, now resides between Paris, Germany and the Côte d’Azur. www.ladymarinak.com

Lesego Seoketsa is a young artist from Johannesburg. She was invited by "Makwande Art Residency"- Mandelieu as part of a program to support artists from Africa. Lesego emanates a strong charisma reflected in her expressive and powerful artworks full of vibrant colors. During her stay at the Côte d'Azur, beautiful works full of energy have been created. Her paintings reflect her impressions and tell a powerful story. www.makwande-art-residency.org

ABOUT STEFANIE

Stefanie Savary

I have been creating dresses for over 40 years. After my experience as a designer in the high fashion industry in several countries in Europe, and as a teacher at a fashion college in Germany, I founded my version of timeless and seasonless style, with my label "STEFANIE SAVARY 12ROBES" and "ART&COUTURE".

Since my early childhood, I have had a passion for fabrics, colors, and the light of the South. My mother, a dressmaker, sewed all the clothes for my sister and me. She taught us to value them and take good care of them. In doing so, she saw an early understanding of enduring quality and craftsmanship. From the age of twelve, I started to sew my clothes and have never stopped since then...

Born in Hamburg, I live and work today with my family in a small medieval hilltop village in the countryside of the Côte d'Azur, on the edge of Provence. With my work, I support the organization "Coeur de Forêt". With every dress made, a new tree is planted.
