What’s good, America? GRAZIA USA asks fashion industry leaders and influential voices to share their secrets to a life well-lived: from the small delights of daily coffee orders to thought-provoking literature and more complex topics like sustainability and social activism. Welcome to #GOODQuestions.

Here, we chat with fashion designers Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant about the Coperni Fall Winter 2021 collection unveiled during Paris Fashion Week.

#GOODQuestions with Sébastien and Arnaud of Coperni

#GOODSource
How was the process of sourcing and designing different this season compared to past seasons?
I feel that we are more focused. We always center our intention on the positive, and the truth is that we had a little time to think and to focus on what’s important, the core of the brand, and where we want to take it.

#GOODInspo
Who or what was the source of inspiration for the collection?
The theme of the collection is “the night.” After staying home for a year now, we felt that our friends, women that we speak to everyday and that inspire us, had one dream: putting on a sexy dress, her boyfriend’s jacket and running into that deep night. Explore, live and even dance a little…

#GOODLuck
Do you have any day of show rituals that bring you good luck?
Our team is our family, we work with our best friends everyday. So I guess they are our lucky charms! And our dog Neo that stays with us in the office everyday 🙂
