Guest Maker: Franck Audoux
Each few weeks or so a new Guest Maker takes over the window of our Mkrs. space in Paris. First up, Franck Audoux presents Le Rivoli, an exclusive Mkrs. x Cravan bottled cocktail. A cosmopolitan twist on the French aperitif, Franck's own recipe combines vodka with the aromatic intensity of a short-batch Amaro herbal liqueur. The short drink is a concentration of bitter orange notes, and available to Click & Collect.

A.P.C. x Sakina M'Sa – During the first lockdown in France, A.P.C. had to cancel hundreds of pieces from its collection to adjust to reduced demand. Rather than destroying the garments, they teamed up with local fashion activist Sakina M’sa for this upcycling project. The pieces have been reworked with slogan patches declaring ‘Upcycling Syndrome’ or ‘Made to Last,’ and are now available on Sakina’s website, with all profits going to the social enterprise she created, Le Tissues Social-Trevo. >sakinamsa.com

'Polaroids' by Romain Laprade – Currently showing at the Librairie Yvon Lambert, this new exhibition from the Paris based photographer coincides with the publication of the book of the same name. Totally un-Warholian, Laprade’s Polaroids are devoid of socialites, rather each triptych associates details from his wanderings - a perfect angle, colour, or shine - chronicling in the process the photographer's aesthetic obsessions.
