The Festival will open this year at the French Institute of Fashion, a place of creation and design. Authors of yesterday and today will be gathered around the theme "The garment is honored."
On Wednesday, November 17, the Festival offers a reading of excerpts from novels and stories honoring the garment. The texts of Andersen, Balzac parade on the catwalk alongside more contemporary authors like Richard Millet ( The negative confession) , Jean-Jacques Schull ( Ingrid Caven) or Jean-Paul Dubois (A French life ) . Sometimes delicate and sensual, sometimes sarcastic and funny, these readings are hearing what we dare not ever see!
Our guest is the writer and psychoanalyst Philippe Grimbert. He will comment on the readings, including that of his novel La petite robe Paul, in which he tells the character's irresistible attraction to a lovely child's dress, seen in the window of a clothing store. One day, his wife Helen discovered this little garment hidden in the dressing room, causing a shock to the couple.
Save the date! I'll see you Wednesday, November 17 at 8:30 p.m. at the French Institute of Fashion to attend the kickoff of the Festival!
