SECOND ACT

After a six-year hiatus, Frédéric Fekkai returned to the runway to work with French fashion designer—and long-time friend—Sophie Theallet. “I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to collaborate with a close friend,” says Fekkai. “Working on a fashion show is a luxury today. Of course, it has to fit the Fekkai brand and image. I cannot work with a designer I don’t respect.”
