The Prologue |
The Prologue Collection marks the beginning of Atèlette's story. These early designs, created in collaboration with a Los Angeles–based design studio, laid the foundation for the heirloom-inspired aesthetic that continues to shape our collections today. While created before our commitment to exclusively using natural, earth-conscious fibers, these pieces reflect the first expressions of our love for timeless silhouettes, vintage-inspired details, and thoughtfully crafted womenswear.
