MADAME TOURÉ'S FASHION

ABIDJAN'S MADAME TOURÉ CREATES HER WARES IN A TINY

STORE AND WORKSHOP

The name is that of the record store that used to occupy the site. 

Pala Pala Music

35 rue Myrha

The client on the left observes as Madame Touré makes her headdress. The workshop is behind the man on the right.

Madame Touré chats with a friend who drops in as for a salon. The as convivial as the beauty parlors, and as for an Asian computer store in the 13th (please scroll down), money is not the only goal.

"Usually clothing in this spirit is sold 

as mass production on the web.

Here we imagine it ourselves and make it by hand."

-- Madame Touré
