FORGET ME NOT BOUTIQUE

STORY

THE DESIGNER BARBARA BUI WAS BORN IN PARIS. FROM A DOUBLE CULTURE, WESTERN BY HER MOTHER AND ASIAN BY HER FATHER, BARBARA BUI SAYS THAT HER MIXED HERITAGE IS VERY MUCH A PART OF HER IDENTITY, HER WORK AND HER BRAND DNA, ENCOURAGING HER TO BE OPEN AND CURIOUS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT CULTURES.

HER FASHION IS ABOVE ALL A STYLE THAT EXPRESSES THE DUALITY, A SILHOUETTE THAT MIXES THE MASCULINE AND FEMININE CODES.

BARBARA BUI CURRENTLY LIVES IN PARIS WITH HER DAUGHTER LAN JOY. THEIR HOME, IN THE FASHIONABLE DISTRICT OF LE MARAIS, IS JUST A SHORT WALK FROM HER OFFICES AND ATELIER.
