The Wonderful World of Les Petits Joueurs
Meet the brand perfect for party season
Some shoes are so good that they overshadow the event you wear them to. And, since they expanded into footwear in 2018, these are exactly the type of shoes that Les Petits Joueurs have been creating. We spoke to Mariasole Cecchi, the brand's founder, all about it.

On the essence of Les Petits Joueurs
"Les Petits Joueurs [LPJ] is a whimsical universe of infinite bold colour streams and unpredictable silhouettes, with a glamorous night fever allure. It’s fun, sexy and the experiments are endless!"

On the origins of the brand's name
"It literally means “The Little Players” in French. The name recalls where everything began, in Paris. I was in my early twenties and I felt an eagerness to express myself. I felt that the accessories around me didn’t represent me and were too “plain”, so I started gluing colourful Lego bricks on top of a very simple black bag... et voilà! The first ever LPJ bag came to life."
On what inspired the AW22 Collection
"AW22 is an imaginary voyage to the moon – I love calling it “The Lunar Effect”. I tried to imagine a crazy lunar world, translated in the presence of shiny laminated leather, unconventional silhouettes and futuristic mirror reflections. It’s a collection of feminine “lunar styles”: the Venus Boots, the Virgo Pumps... I kept imagining the LPJ woman of the future wearing these incredible accessories on an imaginary planet!"
On what distinguishes Les Petits Joueurs from its peers
"I think that LPJ really stands out for its reinvention and reinterpretation of what’s “familiar” to a larger audience and what is on trend, but with a very unique twist. I love to make the crowd curious, to shock, and to create something unexpected."
On how she wants her customers to feel
"Wearing LPJ should make you feel confident and fearless. I believe that the brand is really able to shake up the “classic” accessories, turning them into a woman’s quirky favourite so she can feel at her best and stand out effortlessly."
On lessons learnt in the fashion industry
"Owning a fashion brand is definitely challenging, especially when your creativity is constantly under public judgment and pressure. After almost 10 years in the industry, I can say that I have learned to remain confident and true to my vision. When I started LPJ, I would have never imagined the creative path I overtook, so it’s incredibly fascinating to see how your taste, style and market have evolved throughout the years, without ever breaking its core vision."

On how to style Les Petits Joueurs
The fun part of LPJ is that it’s just perfect to give a cool twist to any casual or sporty look – for example, bold Jane heels with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Yet it’s also undeniably a must-have for glamorous nights out, to make the accessories sparkle at their best!
