Son of Malian immigrants, fashion designer Mossi Traoré grew up in the suburbs of Paris where nothing destined him to fashion.

Today, the couturier has his own brand, "Mossi", and he presents his collection for spring-summer 2023 during Paris Fashion Week.

Building on his success, Mossi Traoré intends to bring haute couture to the neighborhoods.

He regularly organizes artistic events there and in 2015 opened Les Ateliers d'Alix, a fashion school open to all.
