About the practice
Founded in 2022, Perène centres its practice on transforming clothing that already exists. Its approach connects creative garment redesign with the emotional value of the pieces people own, encouraging a renewed relationship with clothing rather than simply replacing it. The label combines two activities: creating its own women’s and unisex designs from existing garments, and offering a personalised transformation service for customers’ wardrobe pieces. For the latter, customers bring clothing they no longer wear, and Perène proposes a redesign using its own creative approach. Perène offers workshops based in France on small runs of upcycled clothing with an emphasis on garment re-making skills, diversity and inclusion.
