Jean Grimbert On Arnys

Permanent Style has an interview with Jean Grimbert, one of the head honchos at the Parisian menswear outlet Arnys. Arnys are known for their artistic, eccentric takes on classic men’s style… their most famous piece, the Forrestiere, was designed for Le Corbusier, as a coat that allowed him to comfortably write on the chalkboard during a professorship. Arnys sold out to the luxury conglomerate LVMH last year in a mostly-for-the-real-estate deal, but it sounds like some version of the brand will continue to exist. We’ll see.
