Like an opal, a costume reveals a new colour with every turn of the light, and tells the story before a word is spoken.
Knotted by hand, made for the light.
Gowns, harnesses, crowns and headpieces knotted cord by cord: pieces that move, catch the light and become character.
Where every character begins.
It begins with a conversation: a mood board, a scene, a character. Together, we weave the second skin that completes your story.

Aurélie
A former nurse, Aurélie de Boisvilliers left medicine for a path of threads and emotion. Macramé came to her as a revelation.
« Each knot becomes a silent prayer. »
On Réunion Island she founded La Maison Opale: handcrafted, made-to-measure pieces that celebrate femininity, strength and inner light, presented at fashion weeks from New York to London and Paris.
For cinema, she works hand in hand with directors and costume departments, from script to set, to create the garment that completes the story.
Let us dress your next story.
Directors, producers and costume departments: share your script and your vision, and Aurélie will come back to you personally.
