Kevin and Vivien's Fabulous Shared Closet
Kevin and Vivien are fashion branding experts who both work in fashion, live in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, and of course share a closet. They’ve been Vestiaire Collective members for 7 years, and what began as a money-saving solution has evolved into a passion for expression without compromising the planet. Discover how they negotiate who wears what, and how the 'Emily in Paris' effect plays out in their day-to-day.
We believe in personal style over trends and hype…
Our individuality comes first for us and it’s important to complement our outfits with items that are not of the moment. Integrating iconic pieces like a Dior Saddle bag or J.M.Weston shoes adds more texture and value to an outfit.
When it comes to sharing our closet…
We plan our outfits the day before, and if there’s overlap, we have to negotiate. We’re the same size in height and shoes, so nothing is off-limits, it’s more about personal taste. Well, actually, Kevin’s Courrèges vinyl jacket is off-limits to Vivien. That’s about it!
I’ve created an alert on Vestiaire Collective for…
Dries Van Noten. He’s my favorite designer and I don't want to miss any opportunity to find fresh Dries pieces. It’s my dream to buy at least one from every season. When it comes to accessories, a beret is currently my go-to accessory… I love the Netflix show Emily in Paris. It is my guilty pleasure, and full of clichés. - Kevin
Kevin inspires me because…
He takes fashion risks that I would not think to but end up loving. His orange camo Kenzo coat is so not my style, but it looks amazing on him. He also looks great when he wears my vintage Pierre Cardin shirt with a leather jacket and baggy pants. - Vivien
