Based in Paris, Casey Casey is an ode to matter. Gareth Casey works with his fabrics like a sculptor: they are washed, twisted, dyed and patinated by hand until they obtain this unique, living texture that seems to have always been there.
Dresses in "Paper Cotton" and coats in washed velvet create ample, protective silhouettes. It's an elegance that rejects rigidity. Here, crinkles are a mark of nobility, and the garment moves with the body in a characteristic rustle.
About this selection
Established in Paris since its founding, Casey Casey is one of those brands that defies pre-existing categories, its very existence a form of creative resistance in a fashion industry prone to cataloging and mass reproduction. Gareth Casey approaches his materials with an obsession and patience more akin to sculpture or ceramics than traditional textile manufacturing. Each fabric is washed, twisted, dyed, and aged by hand through long and unpredictable processes, whose final outcome can never be entirely controlled or identically reproduced, making every Casey Casey piece a unique object in the truest sense of the word.
The brand's signature Paper Cotton perfectly illustrates this philosophy. This distinctively lightweight and crisp fabric, treated to achieve a lively texture that appears to have aged for decades before being worn, serves as the foundation for Gareth Casey's flowing dresses and protective silhouettes. Washed velvet coats extend this exploration of aged and patinated materials, creating generous volumes that envelop the body without ever restricting it. Creases, far from being a flaw to be corrected, are here cultivated as a mark of nobility, visible proof of artisanal work that no machine could imitate. Casey Casey garments move with the body with a characteristic rustle that has become an immediate sign of recognition for those familiar with the brand.
