Aude Casteja, the founder of young French brand Monographie, has made shirts her specialty,. Her brand may be mono-product but it is very refined: the shirts are deconstructed and re-visited, minimalist or embellished. Inspired by architecture, Aude’s work targets the cut and its precision; she works with the best quality fabrics. Her experimental designs which reflect her multiple references and inspirations have given the brand its unique character.
