‘Tous les garçons et les filles’ [1962]

Françoise Hardy, a seminal figure in 1960s pop music, captivated audiences with her distinct voice and stylish presence, marking her rise to fame during this transformative decade. Born in Paris in 1944, Hardy emerged in an era where the youth culture was blossoming, creating a fertile ground for her talents to flourish. Her journey to stardom commenced with the release of her debut single ‘Tous les garçons et les filles’ in 1962.

The rising music phenom was a central figure of the Yé-Yé wave, that characterized post-war Europe.

Her love for monochromatic palettes and understated patterns allowed her natural beauty and grace to shine through, making her a muse for designers like Yves Saint Laurent and Paco Rabanne.

At Bottega Veneta, Blazy champions his craftspeople for their role in the creative process. His is a rare ego in the world of luxury brands.
