The history of Creole chatchat:

In the Sahara, patterns and jewelry often have magical powers. For the Tuaregs, the Woodabés Peulhs, each small object attached to the body carries a meaning, a story, a force which protects them, gives them courage to face the desert.

I was inspired by these talismans to design the “Les Grigris” collection. These curls take the shape of the little necklaces of young girls, the “chatchat” which form these corollas.
