MATHIEU LE TRAON

"Poetic Weaver"

After fifteen years in prestigious positions working for the internationalization of French higher education, I undertook to become a handweaver to revive and share incomparable textile emotions.

Driven by my curiosity and my interest in style and clothing, I discovered with the weaving art a universe with a rich emotional and cultural heritage, which has been largely forgotten and almost lost.

I became a handweaver to re-enchant our intimate and immemorial relationship with textiles

I believe that fabrics can carry intense emotions.

I believe that the weaver’s hand has the power to infuse a fabric with energy, with a vital principle that makes it a living object carrying a unique vibration.

Believing that in an increasingly globalized and standardized world, the true value of things lies more than ever in the matter and in the craft, I defend the vision of an authentic and personalized luxury, one that brings you sensations and emotions.

That is what I wanted to share by creating Atelier Le Traon (formerly In Tweed We Trust) and by hand crafting fabrics of high textile emotion woven from the most precious animal fibers.
