Kitesy Martin grew up in Paris, studied textile design at ENSAAMA Olivier de Serres, then fashion design at the Paris Decorative Arts school. She spent ten years at major houses: Balenciaga, Balmain, Chloé, Lacoste, Louis Vuitton. In 2018, she launched her own upcycled jewelry brand: one-of-a-kind pieces found in flea markets, taken apart and reassembled to create new jewelry, at the crossroads of vintage, contemporary art, and pop culture. Success was immediate. Drops sold out in minutes, and collaborations with Nike, Jordan, and The Hoxton followed. The brand received the Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris. Since then, Kitesy Martin Studio has expanded its range: signature carabiners, bags, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, a graphic, genderless universe that defies expectations. Wife of Olympic fencer Enzo Lefort, hip-hop yoga teacher and co-founder of Humble Warrior, a multi-hyphenate creator, 100% Parisian.
