Who hides behind the Atelier St. Loup?
The Brand
As a fashion designer living in Nantes, she started creating leather accessories all by herself. Starting with just a few friends, the circle of interest turned to a growing number of customers and followers delighted by the craftsmanship, and glad to get their articles "à la carte".
Orders began to pile up; it was time to start an official business. Isabelle then teamed up with Michel Le Page, graphic designer and everyday companion, and Jean-Philippe Marie de Chastenay, digital entrepreneur.
Together they shared the idea of a creative project, mixing modern sensibility and traditional savoir-faire, high standard craftsmanship with a contemporary vision, and gave birth to the brand and concept of Atelier St Loup.
The Workshop :
Atelier St.Loup associates traditional techniques with a modern approach.Contemporary and easy to use designs, a modern colors palette, a strong graphical branding are linked to a platform and social medias’ way to communicate. In the mean time, each article results from our high quality standards (leather choice, hand-cutting, hand controlled machine). The sewing is machine made, operated by our qualified workers who are doing the finishes, caring and loving the product before delivery!
We propose a large collection, which includes unique pieces and very limited series. We also offer an on-demand service, and cater for requests for bespoke items. Our fast rotating leather stocks allows us to provide an ever-renewing series and exclusive range of products for our customers. By using renowned fashion brand leather end-stocks, we proudly take part in a high end recycling process. Atelier St Loup stands for local and human-scale production (all our products are made in France, in our workshop based in Nantes, in Loire Atlantique).
