Under the artistic direction of Pieter Mulier, the legacy of the great Azzedine Alaïa pulsates with renewed energy. It is a celebration of the female form, magnified by cuts of surgical precision and an undeniable sensuality.
Magic unfolds within the material. The sculptural knit, a signature of the house, embraces curves like a second skin, while poplins and leathers are crafted in volume to create kinetic silhouettes. Between laser-cut Vienne patterns and masterful draping, each piece is an architecture designed to glorify movement. A powerful femininity, uncompromising.
About this selection
Founded in Paris by Tunisian-born couturier Azzedine Alaïa, the house of Alaïa was built on one conviction: fashion should enhance the female body rather than constrain it. Nicknamed the king of cling, Alaïa shaped sculptural silhouettes that became legendary, always staying apart from the runway calendar. Under the artistic direction of Pieter Mulier, the house extends this legacy with striking modernity.
Alaïa's DNA lies in exceptional mastery of cut and knitwear. Body-skimming dresses, defined waists, flared godet skirts and peplum jackets express an assertive femininity. Laser-cut leather, fishnet mesh, velvet and crepe jersey bear witness to a unique savoir-faire, while the house's accessories have become objects of desire in their own right.
Our Alaïa women's selection brings together the house's essentials. For bags: the Delta bag in Small or Medium, in black, khaki or dark brown leather, the small Le Click bag in calfskin and the Le Cœur coin purse. For shoes: mesh ballet flats and mules, Pumps 90, Bloom pumps, patent leather slingbacks and Square Slippers loafers. The ready-to-wear features long knit dresses, a vermilion red linen dress, an aubergine velvet double-breasted jacket, a peplum tailored jacket, Rodeo and Low Round jeans, as well as a wide selection of Alaïa sunglasses, from the croc-effect mask model to the Aviator Mask 98.
At Actuel B, we offer a selection of Alaïa for women in our boutiques in Avignon and Arles as well as on our website, with delivery in France and internationally. Each piece is presented by teams trained in the house's history and codes, with the personalised advice that defines our approach to multi-brand luxury.
