According to the material, 86-year-old Marie-Louise and 87-year-old Rene Glemarec were spotted wearing provocative, gender-neutral clothing made by their grandson, fashion designer Florentin Glemarec, for their own brand, EGONlab. The pair was published in the same sets of red and white, consisting of classic medium-length coats, shorts with dangling edges and high lace-up boots with massive soles. Their looks were complemented by sunglasses and face masks.
The designer spoke about his relatives' love for fashion. “Grandpa always dreamed of being in the spotlight. She and her grandmother often come to our studio during the process of creating new collections, and one evening they wanted to try on everything for themselves. So they became our muses. They are the biggest fans of our brand. Grandparents are always ready to experiment with new looks, ”he shared.
According to the publication, in the past, Marie-Louise was a saleswoman at a press kiosk, and Rene was a sailor. Florentin Glemarez said they never had anything to do with fashion, but the couple is currently the face of Italian streetwear brand Sergio Tacchini's Fall / Winter 2021 collection.
