Question: Why is one of your lines called 'Biker'? Delphine Murat: Our Biker line is inspired by Riders; by the freedom it implicates, and the modernity through time and space. The idea is to bring to the legs another universe, anchored in dynamism, modernity and energy, some very important notions for our brand. Question: The Delphine Murat shop is in the Rue Saint Roch in Paris. Are many of your customers using bikes or motorcycles for going shopping? Would you say that riding on bikes in capital cities such as Paris or London became trendy in the last years? Delphine Murat: It is true that it has become trendy for Parisians to take their bike to go shopping and to work. One of the main reason concerns ecology of course, but yet, it is very trendy, pleasant and also 'vintage' to use your bike. In her spring/summer collection 2009 'Sport Deluxe' Delphine Murat focuses on sportive and practicable outfits such as 'le legging' which enhances the anatomy of the legs, and the wearable sporty bag 'Pack Z Rain'. Both pieces are developed from the idea of dynamism fashionoffice.org/design/2008/delphinemurat10-2008.htm.
