FACES of ST. GERMAIN the DANIELCREMIEUX.COM INTERVIEW with LU C A M A R I A P R A GA S S A M Famous Parisian fashion blogger and curator of bonnegueule.com, a trendy menswear blog, Luca has perfected the art of creating editorial content. The Preppy Club met up with him to discuss the dapper look that he brings to the online fashion scene. The Preppy Club: We met for a coffee break at Les Nuits des Thes in Saint-Germain-Des-Pr└s last week. Could you tell us more about your day-to-day schedule? Luca: As soon as I¨m awake, I check up on my emails while drinking a double expresso. I¨m so hooked on coffee that before jumping into my first editorial meeting of the day with my team I usually have another doppio. My schedule changes every day but usually I¨m writing new articles, going out for a photoshoot, or organizing a video for my Youtube Channel (@BonneGueule). TPC: What¨s the biggest perk of being a blogger? L: My favorite part is that I get to create unique and informative content that my audience will enjoy reading. Being able to help other men feel comfortable in their clothes is really rewarding. TPC: If we had to meet up, in which area of Paris would it be? L: In the Marais or Abbesses. You can usually spot me walking around in these areas on the weekend. TPC: Where is your favorite place to enjoy a French breakfast/brunch in Paris? L: During winter, I like going to Quincampe in the Marais because of the cozy interior and the quaint fire place. Their scrambled eggs are amazing! The restaurant Quai, in Saint Germain, also has an amazing view in front of the Seine. It¨s a perfect spot for the summer. TPC: How would you describe the perfect Parisian style? L: I don¨t think there is a ＾perfect style￣. For me the most important thing is to have every men feeling confident in their outfit. I am delighted when I see a man with a perfectly fitted suit. When I see that, I feel like elegance still exists. TPC: What's your day-to-day out?t? L: Usually at the beginning of the week I wear suits, something dressier. Mid-week is more casual, I usually keep the suit but take off my tie and put on sneakers. At the end of the week I often wear boots with blues jeans and a leather jacket over a basic white tee. TPC: What's the perfect out?t to chill in Saint Germain? L: I would have to say my mid-week outfit with my Vespa motorcycle of course! TPC: Describe Cremieux¨s style in a few words? L: Preppy style and jackets with Neopolitan shoulders, one of my favorite features of a Cremieux garment! TPC: In your opinion, what are the essentials at the Cremieux shop?

CREMIEUX.FR WA L D E M A R K I TA Waldemar Kita is a multi-faceted French businessman and entrepreneur. After having sold his ?rst medical surgery company, Corneal, he created Stylage; one of the most famous anti-aging products in the world. In 1998 he bought the Swiss football club in Lausanne and is now the chairman of FC Nantes, which has won eight French championships and is considered one of France's most important football clubs. The Preppy Club: You have been in the Health Care Sector for years and then you switched to the football business. How did this come to be? Waldemar: I¨ve always been in involved in different businesses but have especially been a big fan of football. I played often when I was younger and was keen on its values. FC Nantes was the first football club to exist in France,maybe even in Europe.I really enjoyed the morals and above all the values of this club. Today it¨s all about FC Barcelona but a few years back, it was FC Nantes! TPC: Why soccer above all? W: The value that I prefer, not only in football but in general, is respect. In fact a certain education, culture, and an intellectual honesty, to the others are the main values for me. TPC: In 2014 you were titled as the best leader in French football. In your opinion, what is the secret to being successful? W: I don¨t think there are specific rules or skills, but you need to be lucky. I don¨t really use the word "success"; success doesn¨t really exist. It's always going up and down. People talk about you when things are going well but they will judge you as soon as things are turning wrong.Success is a state of mind,the will to create,move forward, always evolve, and renew your perspectives. TPC: What is the perfect business out?t? W: There are no rules, but I think a good outfit is a sign of respect for people you are meeting with. You must dress appropriately for any occasion. Ties are not mandatory but most of the time I prefer to wear one.We dress up for ourselves, but also for others.The outfit isn¨t everything but it helps a lot. TPC: Does the sport industry match with fashion? W: Of course! Athletes are in good shape and the media is always surrounding them. Fashion is a very interesting industry to target for them as they can greatly widen the visibility of a brand. TPC: Where¨s your favorite spot to spend the summer in Paris? W: I don¨t really have a preference; Paris is a city full of surprises. Wherever you go, you will be able to find a warm atmosphere and a good coffee. I really enjoy cozy places such as Fouquet¨s or Costes, I feel at home there. TPC: Your favorite area in Paris? W: I really like Saint-Germain-Des-Pr└s, Op└ra, Madeleine are places that I enjoy spending time. I enjoy going there because you can find a lot of things and for me it¨s very convenient.Paris is one of the most beautiful cities in the world so anywhere you go you will feel good. TPC: Pick one: casual, classy, or overdressed? W: I don¨t think I have a specific style as my style depends a lot on the kind of events I¨m attending. I try to coordinate my outfits with shapes and colors. It¨s necessary to have a personality and a style. I can wear a polo or a shirt; the advantage of wearing Cremieux is that you can find a dressy or more casual style. TPC: For you what is the Cremieux masterpiece? W: Hands down the shirts! I have never seen such perfect shirts in terms of design, fit, and quality. I always tell this to all my friends around the world. TPC: Your mandatory Cremieux accessory? W: I love the accessories such as the scarves and ties. They¨re always creative and well designed. They don¨t fit with my style but I also really like the bow ties. TPC: What is your out?t when attending a FC Nantes match? W: It¨s very important to look good since we are always watched by the media. I was fortunate in that I had the opportunity to have the FC Nantes team dressed up by Cremieux. We worked quite awhile on the logo of this partnership in order to show properly showcase the Cremieux look on the athletes.It came out great and was an awesome experience, thank you again! INTERVIEW with CREMIEUX.FR R E G I S DA J C Z M A N Founder of the eponymous brand of leather goods using premium vegetable tanned leather and ?ne exotic skins handcrafted in Paris, Regis Dajczman is a multi-faceted creator. Original, ingenious, and timeless are just a few words to describe the creations of Dajczman. The Preppy Mag met up with this energetic entrepreneur to learn more about his start in fashion and style. The Preppy Club: From musician to designer; Regis tell us, how did you get your start in fashion? Regis: I've played music my whole life and I still do. I¨m currently in Wemen, the coolest band in the world. We¨re getting ready for our next series of concerts at the end of March. As far as design goes, to me everything is all about creation. Accessories are not entirely about fashion, I create pieces that will last as long as possible, going against the stream of obsolescence.The essence of fashion is all about constantly having new ideas, which then get crushed by more and more subsequent ideas that follow the next day. This cycle is even shorter now, with fast fashion. I started at 15, my neighbors had this small workshop/showroom where they made belts and a lot of other things with a strong Harpo style. I made my first leather jacket when I was 21, in Perth, Australia, where my cousin had a leather factory where they made jackets for county policemen. TPC: Tell us a little bit about your morning routine as an entrepreneur? R: I wake up at 6:30, start with freshly squeezed lemon juice.I then practice my own mishmash of yoga-gym for 20 minutes, have breakfast, and read whatever press I can find, before planning my day of work. TPC: How would you describe your personal style? R: Every line, every curve is defined by a function. It has to be streamlined, smart, and beautiful if possible. It also has to possess a strong DNA that is wholly untamable. That¨s part of who I am. TPC: Does Paris still deserve the title of "Fashion Capital"? R: As long as you find new designers, new brands on every street, yes. However it's a tough and unbalanced struggle against the chains that are all the same on every other corner, in every capital, all around the world. TPC: Which area of Paris do you ?nd to be the most inspiring? R: That's what¨s beautiful about Paris, you always have a striking place, an art deco building, a gorgeous street. I grew up and went to school in the 9th district. Although it has changed a lot, this district is wonderful. Each little street hides something all the way up to the 18th. It's a pleasure for the eyes. I also like a lot of the districts around Maubert Mutualit└ as well, because you still get a sense of how Paris was 50 years ago there. It feels as though nothing has really changed. Just like in the movie ＾Les Tontons Flingueurs￣. TPC: Where is the best place to listen to music in Paris? R: Well, if you're into Rock music, I'd go to ｀le Tigre¨, have a drink at ｀le Scandale¨, dance in good company at ｀le Montana¨, and end the night at ｀le Bus Paladium¨. If you're into something more alternative I suggest trying ｀la Java¨.It has a more soul music scene which I¨ve always been a big fan of. TPC: How would you describe a summer in Saint-Germain-Des-Pr└s? R: Hot, crowded, but not suffocating, beautiful women, a drink rue de Bussy, a walk from rue Jacob to rue des Canettes, and a quick stop to take a break in the garden of Luxembourg. TPC: The mandatory Parisian accessory? R: My new clutch the "Four/Two". TPC: What's your favorite piece at Cremieux? R: This beautiful white jacket I¨m wearing. TPC: A ?nal French word? R: Et voil┐... INTERVIEW with @DAJCZMAN DANIELCREMIEUX.COM DANIELCREMIEUX.COM 13 14

I grew up and went to school in the 9th district. Although it has changed a lot, this district is wonderful. Each little street hides something all the way up to the 18th. It's a pleasure for the eyes. I also like a lot of the districts around Maubert Mutualit└ as well, because you still get a sense of how Paris was 50 years ago there. It feels as though nothing has really changed. Just like in the movie ＾Les Tontons Flingueurs￣. TPC: Where is the best place to listen to music in Paris? R: Well, if you're into Rock music, I'd go to ｀le Tigre¨, have a drink at ｀le Scandale¨, dance in good company at ｀le Montana¨, and end the night at ｀le Bus Paladium¨. If you're into something more alternative I suggest trying ｀la Java¨.It has a more soul music scene which I¨ve always been a big fan of. TPC: How would you describe a summer in Saint-Germain-Des-Pr└s? R: Hot, crowded, but not suffocating, beautiful women, a drink rue de Bussy, a walk from rue Jacob to rue des Canettes, and a quick stop to take a break in the garden of Luxembourg. TPC: The mandatory Parisian accessory? R: My new clutch the "Four/Two". TPC: What's your favorite piece at Cremieux? R: This beautiful white jacket I¨m wearing. TPC: A ?nal French word? R: Et voil┐... INTERVIEW with @DAJCZMAN DANIELCREMIEUX.COM DANIELCREMIEUX.COM 13 14
