The Story Behind: Christian Lacroix opulent design and Heart influences

Christian Lacroix is a famous French fashion designer born on May 16, 1951, in Arles, France. He is known for his colourful, theatrical and opulent haute couture designs that mix historical and southern French inspirations. Christian Lacroix used often the heart motif—alongside oversized crosses and lavish sacred to evoke theatricality, intense passion, historical 18th-century/baroque romanticism and his profound connection and love to southern French and Catholic iconography.

Christian Lacroix designs fashion as a grand spectacle. The heart served as an expressive, high-impact symbol that aligned with his maximalist philosophy that “more is more”. Throughout his career Christian Lacroix used its religious and folkloric roots and its Provençal traditions to design his clothes and jewellery… He took his inspiration from baroque and antique design and his costume jewellery and clothing frequently mirrored antique, opulence and sculptural look. Christian Lacroix often incorporated hearts into his clothing designs and jewellery and often featured large, vibrant stunning sculptural pieces. His jewellery reflects intense emotion, where the human heart or sacred heart functioned as a timeless emblem of intense emotion and-artistic warmth.
