Idris' Vintage How-To

 

Idris Arab-Tani is our Courrèges insider. A lover of the 1970s, his personal style is shaped by a variety of influences, with vintage earning a prime spot in his wardrobe. Here he discusses his style inspirations, fashion circularity and how his love of pre-loved led him to Vestiaire Collective.

Vestiaire Collective and Courrèges' partnership...

... celebrates the special bond that Courrèges shares with vintage, but also and above all the Maison's commitment to sustainable fashion and circularity.

What stands out about Courrèges' designs...

... is how precise and timeless they are. Look at the vinyl jacket designed by André Courrèges in 1971, it's still relevant today! For men, the leather jacket is also a must-have. I like that it's quite short with a wide collar.

My personal style is inspired by...

... rock bands of the 1970s, think David Byrne, Brian Jones, Mick Jagger or Lou Reed. What I like about rockers is the way they twist beautiful suits with embellished tops or shoes. That's what style is all about: faking nonchalance!

My favorite vintage pieces...

... Saint Laurent jackets, especially from the Hedi Slimane era. I've been using Vestiaire Collective for the past 5-7 years which has been great to find vintage jeans! If I had to keep only one pre-loved item, I would say one of my many 501 jeans.
