Alexandre Mattiussi
Of the three brands, Ami retains the closest roots towards traditional French tailoring. Founded in 2011 by Alexandre Mattiussi (who had previously worked at Dior and Gvienchy amongst others), the cut of the cloth maintains the refined minimalism associated with the French. It is in the use of colour and pattern where Ami makes a break for the new wave – bright blues and purples mix with zig-zags and bold logos sweaters to create a fusion of classic and contemporary, highlighting just why this is one of the leading new brands coming out of France at present.
