French Institute Alliance Francaise Welcomes Agnes B. For Talk And Book Signing, 3/13
by BWW News Desk Mar. 10, 2017
The French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF), New York’s premiere French cultural center, is thrilled to welcome agnès b. for a special talk and book signing on Monday, March 13 at 7pm in FIAF’s Florence Gould Hall, 55 East 59th Street (between Madison & Park).
The visionary fashion designer, entrepreneur, and style icon launches her new book agnès b. STYLISTE, a beautiful retrospective celebrating 40 years of her eponymous brand-from her personal philosophy and signature style, to her many influences, including rock music, the 18th century, ingénues, and androgyny.
agnès b.’s timeless, workwear-inspired designs are wardrobe staples for celebrities and fashionistas alike, but her accomplishments go well beyond her clothing empire. Eager to exhibit the artists she loved, agnès b. opened the Galerie du Jour in 1984. The contemporary art gallery in Paris exhibits established and emerging artists.
She recently made her directorial debut in 2013 with Je m’appelle Hmmm…, which premiered in Venice and screened at the New York Film Festival. agnès b. has also produced nearly 30 films, including the recent critical and commercial hit Spring Breakers from seminal American director Harmony Korine.
At FIAF, agnès b. will discuss her passion for style, art, and doing things her own way in a talk moderated and curated by journalist Melissa Ceria with an introduction by film critic Amy Taubin.
In English. Followed by Q&A and book signing.
A limited number of press tickets are available. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or to RSVP.
We hope you can join us!

Sa doctrine est simple : “Je n’aime pas la mode, j’aime le style“. Agnès Troublé, alias agnès b. (initiale du nom de son premier époux), règne sur la mode parisienne depuis plus de 40 ans.
Un parcours et un univers que la créatrice et collectionneuse d’art contemporain expose dans son nouveau livre agnès b. STYLISTE. Ecrit en collaboration avec Florence Ben Sadoun, l’ouvrage sera présenté le 11 mars à 5pm à la librairie Albertine, et le 13 mars à 7pm au FIAF, en présence d’agnès b. dans les deux cas.
L’occasion pour la styliste de revenir sur son succès. L’art de l’intemporel, de la simplicité, ou encore la mode “de la rue” constituent l’ADN de la marque qui s’aventure au-delà des frontières de la mode puisqu’elle possède aussi une société de production cinématographique et un magazine d’art contemporain.
agnès b. STYLISTE rassemble des croquis, des articles de presse et surtout des clichés des plus grands photographes contemporains comme Peter Lindbergh, Ellen von Unwerth, ou encore Jean-Baptiste Mondino qui ont mis en valeur la marque française créée en 1975.
Les rencontres seront suivies d’une séance de dédicaces.

Agnès b. Pops in at Wittmore
Wittmore’s locations in the downtown L.A. Arts District and Beverly Grove now feature exclusive agnès b. product, including the men’s boutique’s foray into select women’s products.
PARIS IN L.A.: French label agnès b. has delved back into the Los Angeles market with temporary shops-in-shops at men’s lifestyle boutique Wittmore.
The retailer’s two locations in the Arts District and West Third Street now feature items from the agnès b. spring and b. forever collections, along with unisex T-shirts done in collaboration with artists such as John Giorno and Mel Bernstein. The agnès b. takeover inside the two Wittmore stores are also accompanied by an installation of exclusive photographs by the filmmaker Kenneth Anger.
Carrying agnès b. for Wittmore founder Paul C. Witt in some ways brings the retailer full circle.
“I remember back in the day, I used to walk through SoHo all the time and [agnès b.’s] store was on Prince Street and I used to love going into the store and seeing what art installations were there as well as her unique approach to merchandising,” Witt said. “The clothes were always minimally put out and there was always an integration of art and photography.…It was one of the brands that I wanted to aspire to and to save my money to purchase something.”
When Witt caught wind of the fact that the label was interested in getting back into the L.A. market, he jumped at the opportunity to pursue the brand.
“The meeting of the minds happened,” Witt said. “It was a true partnership organically of what I saw the brand to be and also what Agnès herself and how she wanted her brand interpreted.”
The offering at the two Wittmore stores is currently 80 percent men’s with the Arts District store also selling an assortment from the agnès b. core capsule collection of classic pieces for women. That marks the store’s first foray into having a small women’s capsule, but it’s too soon to say if Wittmore would continue expanding into the women’s market, Witt said.
The agnès b. items will be in store and select pieces online through the end of June.
