OUEST Paris, the fashion house founded by Arthur Robert in 2022, made a remarkable entry into the official Paris Fashion Week calendar with its Fall-Winter 2024 collection. Celebrating its two-year anniversary, the brand continues to evolve and introduces its first-ever collaboration.
The inspiration for this collection began with a night out in Paris, an experience that blended the energy of the city’s nightlife with the early morning streets. The concept of putting on a coat over the previous night’s outfit sparked the creative process that led to this diverse collection.
The Fall-Winter 2024 collection features a mix of rancher jackets, cowboy jeans, cargo pants, and parkas, alongside more tailored pieces like jackets, macs, and double-breasted coats. Signature items such as apron pants, trucker jackets, and skater shorts have been reimagined in dressy wool. In a mix of materials, the collection showcases moleskin, recycled denim, fuzzy lambswool, and raw cords, contrasted with lacquered fabrics and regenerated leather. Despite its youth, OUEST Paris pays homage to its previous collections with a series of prints that playfully revisit the brand’s archives.
Marking a milestone, OUEST Paris announced its first collaboration with CAHU, the Canal Saint Martin-based bag maker. Together, Arthur Robert and Clémence Cahu have reimagined CAHU’s signature bag, the Pratique, in new shapes and sizes, including the XXS and XXL, as well as a special Surf board case. OUEST Paris’s distribution continues to expand among the world’s most respected retailers. The brand was a finalist for the Pierre Bergé ANDAM Prize in 2023 and has recently joined the Sphere showroom.
