To find, to collect, to wear
Trouver was founded in 2023 but originated, really, in 2016 as a first-year student at Central Saint Martins with a hobby of collecting Roberto Cavalli and John Galliano. I was, and still am, a die-hard noughties fanatic and dedicated much of my degree to this era. Nearly ten years later, this has shown no signs of waning, and I am forever excited to see this incredible period of fashion history embraced so widely.
I believe firmly in the virtues of secondhand and vintage shopping, and it brings me great joy to find and present these late '90s and early '00s pieces, alongside some exceptional earlier and more recent examples.
From archival runway looks to everyday wear, Trouver brings an academic approach to sourcing—selecting pieces for their stories, cultural relevance, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time.
