Thierry Gillier took the name for his label
Zadig & Voltaire from a novella named ‘Zadig ou la Destinee’ by French philosopher, Voltaire (see? Don’t say we never tell you anything useful). Aside from an interest in controversial authors, the brand is defined by a rock ‘n’ roll aesthetic, captured in the super-skinny silhouette of the
Eva trousers that make corduroy covetable, cropping it above ankle-length to hang above distressed boots.
