Serge Lutens

Serge Lutens (born 14 March 1942 in Lille, France) is a French fashion designer, perfume creator, photographer, filmmaker and hair stylist, known principally for the fashion house and fragrance company which bears his name.

At fourteen, Lutens was taken on as an apprentice by a hair salon in Lille, a period which he described as crucial to his appreciation of beauty in three dimensions.

In 1962 Lutens moved to Paris, where Vogue hired him to create makeup, hair and jewellery.

in 1973, Serge Lutens' series of photographs (inspired by the artists Claude Monet, Georges-Pierre Seurat, Pablo Picasso and Amedeo Modigliani) was shown at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.

In 2014, Lutens unveiled Section d’Or – a radical collection that sets no limits or price to artistry.
