One-of-a-kind collector’s piece for haute couture handmade by artist Bruno Legeron (of the celebrated Maison Legeron). His legacy is encapsulated in these magical pieces. For those seeking a rare magical gift for the holidays, or for oneself! ; )

In homage to the extraordinary artistry of Bruno Legeron whose magical flowers adorned the creations of haute couture, we bring this rare occasion to purchase rare collector’s pieces at special prices as exclusive Moowon offer.

Each creation was an original piece handmade by Mr. Legeron, to be worn, to adorn, or to be enshrined.
Mr Legeron retired in 2021 after handing over Maison Legeron to a French luxury group, thus these are precious last pieces born from his hands.

At the helm of the 4th generation family operated business since 1993, Bruno Legeron fondly remembers the days when he used to come and help out as a young boy. A silk flower pinned to his rugged workshop apron, a pen tucked behind his right ear, Bruno Legeron whose second passion is football, was a perfectionist who knew the flower-making industry inside out. He oversaw every step of the production: he personally die-cut the fabrics and dyed the shapes.

The Paris-based flower manufacture was founded in 1727 and bought by Louis Sebillon in 1880. His great-grandson Bruno Legeron is the 4th generation owner of the family operated business. The workshop that was located a few steps away from the Palais Royal Garden had been his second home for as long as he can remember.

Bruno Legeron was an artisan and an artist who never made the same flower twice. Each creation was an original handmade piece.

Behind an artificial flower that adorns a magnificent creation of haute couture lies the prolific imagination of an artist. Bruno Legeron made flowers that were “hand-grown-to-order.” Mr Legeron retired in 2021 after handing over Maison Legeron to a French luxury group. Yet, the authenticity and the beauty of his process remain captured and preserved through our contributor’s earlier documentations. They give us a glimpse into the precious spirit of his original atelier as we pay homage to his legacy.
