Les Bijoux D'Odette

“Les Bijoux D’Odette is a jewelry and clothing collection that acts as a conduit on an esoteric journey into the past, through adornment, memory, connection and history, as seen through the eyes of Odette.  Designer Fanny Crenn is based in Brittany, France, while Odette, who operates as muse for the creation of the collection, lives in Crenn’s heart and her mind. …While her clothing is a fight of fantasy, that wouldn’t look out of place adorning Titania from Shakespeare’s’ play of about the wooded fairly world, A Midsummer Nights Dream… Sourcing her materials from flee markets, second hand stores and attic sales, Crenn references the Emmaus Movement, the collective fight against all forms of exclusion, started by French Catholic priest Henri Marie Joseph Groues.  The charity that continues in his name is the oft times.”

Work ethic behind Nau

“We’re a small group of people, committed to the power of business as a force for change. Defined by what we love, and how we work and play, we’re looking to do more than make clothes; We’re seeking to redefine what it means to be successful.”
Intellect and creativity ! I mean the author literally takes the words right out of my mouth: 
Nau is "invested in breaking the model of how fashion companies do business, through a whole new business paradigm. Nau’s goal is to demonstrate the highest levels of citizenship in everything they do...Believing that companies have a broader responsibility than simply generating profit." 
For me, there is nothing more inspirational then seeing the success of these companies. Even if I never make it big in the industry, it makes me so happy to see that there people who can be so caring.  

There are photos!! Take a look see!
