The Sessùn brand was created in Marseille by Emma François in 1998. The brand has distinguished itself since its launch by winning the Young Designer Award of the Marseille Fashion House. Globetrotter and anthropologist, Emma is inspired by her encounters, art and design, but also by the many books she brings back from all over the world.

Sessun is a brand driven by a taste for materials, craftsmanship and beautiful things. The materials are carefully selected. More than a look, they must correspond to the quality standards of the brand by their manufacture, their appearance, their richness but also their composition.

Emma François's passion is also music. Great classics such as Cat Power, Patti Smith, David Bowie, Nancy Sinatra, but also more current groups such as Diana Ross or the American dream pop band Beach House. We find all these inspirations distilled along the Sessun collection.

Sessun has set itself the value of defending traditional textile craftsmanship. Emma explores and rediscovers ancient techniques each season in order to introduce them into her collections. Sessùn is also involved in supporting organisations working to safeguard textile skills that are in danger of disappearing.
