ISAAC SELLAM experience

 

ISAAC SELLAM HAS SPENT THE FIRST 15 YEARS OF HIS CARRIER COMPLETING HIS MASTERY OF LEATHER AND, THEREFORE, IN 2002 HE CREATED HIS OWN STUDIO: ISAAC SELLAM EXPERIENCE. YEAR BY YEAR, HE HAS TRANSFORMED HIS STUDIO INTO A LEATHER RESEARCH LABORATORY, AIMING AT EXPERIMENTING HIS CREATIVITY AND INNOVATIONS. AS HE ENJOYS MORE SPECIFICALLY TRIFLING WITH ESTABLISHMENT, HE IS WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE BEST TANNERS TO DEVELOP NEW LEATHER GARMENTS FOR EACH OF HIS COLLECTION WHILE IN DESIGNING HE IS SEEKING OUT EVIDENT FLUIDITY BY DIVERTING STITCHES OR MATERIALS. HIS TECHNICAL NATURE COMBINED TO HIS INSPIRATION LEAD TO UNFORESEEN AND UNUSUAL DESIGNS, CREATING A CERTAIN UNENDING MODERNITY. IN OTHER WORDS, ISAAC SELLAM STAMPS HIS MARK WITH DELICACY ON THOSE EXPERIENCED AND UNDRESSED SKINS.
