Aurélien Arbet

A Paris-based designer and photographer trained at the Institut Français de la Mode, Aurélien Arbet co-founded Études Studio in 2012 with Jérémie Egry and José Lamali as a hybrid menswear label and publishing house. The studio's early identity was built around limited-edition photo books made with artists such as Ari Marcopoulos and Jason Dill, paired with a graphic-led wardrobe of relaxed tailoring, workwear and printed jersey. Showing on the official Paris men's calendar, Études grew into one of the city's most consistent independent menswear houses, expanding into womenswear and accessories while keeping its founding link between contemporary art publishing and clothing intact.
