MARIE MAS – From Dior Couture to an independant brand
The French born jewellery designer, Marie Cabirou has always had a thing with movements. As a child she was always drawing and through this her dreams of working in the creative fields started.
Since she finished her education at École Duperré (college of art, design and fashion) and IFM (French Fashion Institute) in Paris her obsession was to create jewellery with a wow-effect.
Before establishing her independant brand, Marie challenged herself by creating statement jewellery pieces for the Maison Christian Dior Couture shows. When working at Dior the goal was to design wow-effect pieces that would stand out at the Dior Couture shows, which could also be transformed wearable costume jewellery.
She was always intrigued by the visual effect of the movement in jewellery, and she decided that when the time was right, she would establish a brand that always gave magic and movement to the customer.
Every day Marie is overwhelmed by the messages her customers sends her.
“The best feedback from my customers is that my jewellery makes them happy. One wonderful lady mentioned that the ring keeps her entertained when she has to sit through a boring conversation, that makes me laugh with joy!” says founder and designer, Marie Cabirou
