Margaux Villiet
Margaux discovered her passion for sewing at the age of 7 when her grand mother, a professional seamstress, gave her her very first sewing machine. The idea of being able to create a practical and functional object from a thread fascinates her. A lawyer by profession, she devotes herself to her passion on evenings and weekends. She believes that being able to create clothes that suit her own body, with exactly the right details, cut in beautiful, comfortable and good quality fabrics, to be able to make clothes created to last with her own hands, is an extraordinary skill. She is a bit sad that sewing is no longer taught at school ; this would allow more people to be autonomous and generate less waste. With her cheerful personality, her dynamism and her attentive ear, Margaux now wishes to invite our students to join her in her passion. She believes that it's not because you're green that you have to be beige. She wants to show people that it's possible to do good for the planet without sacrificing their sense of style or emptying your wallet; you just have to learn to do it yourself!
