Introducing ‘Cerise Noire’ – a collection that embodies bold creativity, technical mastery, and unmistakable attitude
Inspiration
Showcasing Simon’s renowned diverse skill set and visionary approach, ‘Cerise Noire’ cleverly combines vibrant and deep-set reds with highly technical haircuts, innovative texture work, and exquisite finishing. Each look is crafted with precision and purpose, exuding a powerful attitude and a striking visual identity. The collection plays with contrast both in colour and form, delivering bold silhouettes, sculptural shapes, and strong editorial styling. From sharp, geometric bobs to dishevelled, lived-in layers, every piece reflects confidence, individuality, and modern edge. ‘Cerise Noire’ stands as a testament to Simon’s ability to blend artistry with technical excellence, creating a collection that is not only fashion-forward but also deeply expressive and empowering.
