FRANCINE LECOULTRE FABRIC INVENTOR

1 BACKGROUND

In the small Swiss village where Francine Lecoultre grew up everyone she loved performed whatever task was at hand with care and precision. Her mother created everything from scratch: homemade preserves and pastries to dresses, aprons and doilies. Her father and grandfather crafted the minuscule movable parts that went into luxury Swiss watches. So it was that at 7, Francine picked up needle and thread to fashion intricate dresses with puffed sleeves and embroidered hems for her dolls and stuffed animals.

Today one of ’s foremost textile and costume designers, Francine says that as a child she learned the Swiss ethos of excellence and craftsmanship.

She had always loved textiles and art and it seemed natural to teach about the subject she loved. But it wasn’t until Francine took the risky step of leaving a secure position as an art professor in Fribourg and moved to that she discovered her own unique gifts as an artist. “That leap of faith changed my life,” says Francine, whose work as a freelance costume designer and textile artist draws on her training in art, textiles and sewing.

“Ideas flow from my brain to my hands” says Francine. Her career in Hollywood has in moments felt like a fairytale and her free flowing ideas have become one‐of‐a‐kind costumes for villains, aliens, leading men and princesses.

2 BACKGROUND

Francine brought more than her heritage of Swiss craftsmanship with her to Los Angeles. A former Swiss cross‐country ski champion, mountain climber and long distance sailor, Francine arrived in LA well prepared for the physical demands of her hands‐on vocation in the highly competitive film industry.

Today, Francine is the “go‐to” person for unique, daring and dazzling creations. She has made a name for herself by inventing textiles for some of Hollywood’s most memorable costumes, worn by stars such as Ben Kingsley, Patrick Stewart, , Guy Pierce, Lili Taylor, William Baldwin and .

Among other prestigious films, Francine brought to bear her creative genius to create original materials to make the alien and mutant garments in “Star Trek,” the pink fur of the gorilla disguise worn by Uma Thurman in “ and Robin,” as well as the glittering silk of the bejeweled Swarovski wedding dress worn by Amy Adams in Disney’s “Enchanted.” Each costume bears Francine’s imaginative signature.

Nominated for a Costume Designer’s Guild Award for her work in the Carl’s Junior commercial “Miss Turkey,” Francine has also been commissioned to design the costumes of major opera, ballet and circus productions in the U.S., Asia and Europe. Not strictly limited to the film and theatrical industries, Francine has created masks and costumes for famous artists such as rapper, songwriter and record producer Kanye West.

Statuesque, dressed with simple elegance, Francine Lecoultre enters the Los Angeles French Brasserie “Little Next Door” wearing a black pantsuit and a purple scarf, an off cut of one of her trademark inventions, the luxurious antique gold foil brocade on silk velvet which made Michelle Yeoh’s extravagant green dress in “The Mummy” famous. Francine orders a double espresso, still reviving herself she jokes from three months of intense work on her latest film project with its daily 5:00 A.M. call times.

“I had no interest in Hollywood before completing the Advanced Diploma in the Costume Design program at FIDM,” she explains. Among the alumni of LA’s prestigious Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising are Will.i.am, Monique Lhuillier and Heidi Montag. “I had taken a sabbatical from my art professor post in Switzerland and my plan was, after graduating, to return home to continue teaching. I loved my job. But somehow, at the end of the sabbatical, I found myself writing a letter of resignation. It was scary, and of course, a life altering decision.”

But the former champion cross country skier, mountain climber, and long distance sailor know all too well about pushing her limits. “I care deeply about quality,” says Francine. “This is the motto I live by.”

The fantasy world of Hollywood is a natural fit for her creative genius and she soon was embraced by the world capital of the entertainment industry. Francine has also made her mark on prestigious European productions in opera, theater and ballet, with inventive designs for productions of “The Magic Flute,” and “Carmen” as well as the works of Miguel de Cervantes, Carol Goldoni and Harold Pinter.

“I had to learn everything from scratch, including the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry. L.A. is a very competitive city. It was an incredible rollercoaster, where each success helped me become more confident, audacious and adventurous.”

Her first break came with the creation of specialty textiles for the TV series Star Trek. “Complexity, technicality, multiple layers and the creative challenge of inventing costumes for other worldly characters all appealed to me. I love designing costumes that help tell the story. Science fiction and fantasy are my favorite genres. Star Trek fit my personality and creativity perfectly. It was a Dream come true. I am a scientist in a laboratory, an artist and a technician, all rolled in one.”

7 HOLLYWOOD CALLING

Ingredients for Francine’s textile inventions can include anything from mud, to bark, to neoprene, to gold, to Swarovski crystals! When creating, everything around her becomes a source of inspiration and is assigned a unique and unexpected use.

It is her creation of the unforgettable pink furred gorilla worn by Uma Thurman in “Batman & Robin” that opened the doors of big Hollywood productions. As a result of her work on this movie, Francine became a member of IATSE, Costumers Union, and obtained her Green Card as an Alien of Exceptional Abilities, a fitting designation given her work on Star Trek. In 1995, she was invited to become a member of the prestigious Costumer Designers’ Guild, while designing 300 special costumes for a TV commercial for Taco Bell and the 20th anniversary of Star Wars.

The same year, Francine inaugurated the Lecoultre Studio, now located at Brewery Arts’ Complex in downtown L.A. and was offered a teaching position at FIDM. “I shall always love teaching, passing my skills on to the younger generation,” she explained. “It’s only natural for me to want to give something back.”

Francine’s skills and talents have enriched some of the most iconic movies of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as: “The Fast and the Furious” with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, “Mission Impossible 3,” “The Mummy,” “Night at the Museum,” “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” and “Enchanted,” among others. “The pace, rhythm and structure is different in each film, depending on the location, deadline, budget, cast, time period, and personalities… but the process is the same. I bring my flexibility, curiosity, perfectionism, humility and patience to each project. I like to think of this as ‘Swiss Quality” she adds. Although Francine remains discreet and respectful of the privacy of her clients, it has been reported that she has created costumes for major stars, such as: Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Kanye West and Amy Adams. “I remember working on the Disney feature “Enchanted” creating a "Enchanted” 3D silk screening special fabric for the wedding dress imagined by the wonderful costume designer Mona May, an FIDM Alumna. The assignment gradually became about making an elaborate 3D fabric embellished with over 10,000 Swarovski crystals. The fabric for just one dress required weeks of meticulous handwork. Francine was invited to the fitting of the dress with Amy Adams who skyrocketed into the A‐list with that movie. Mona then informed Francine that she would need twenty‐nine more identical versions of the same dress! Francine and her team then worked non‐stop for months to deliver the quantity of fabric necessary for the duplicate dresses.

As she speaks, one clearly gets the feeling that Francine is energized by challenges. The higher the stakes, the longer the hours, the more complex the job, the stranger the locations, the more stimulated and productive Francine becomes. Her textile inventions will become available to the public in a fine art’s book of her work to be published in the near future.

Francine is simultaneously preparing for an ambitious International Art Exhibition in Shanghai, where a few years earlier she designed the costumes for the opening night of the Joyland Theater. In 2007, Francine created 250 ornate costumes for the opening ceremony of the Center for the Arts in Shenzhen. This ambitious show, “Elements,” went on to become a huge success for seven consecutive years. “I loved the scale of that production,” said Francine, who has an ongoing love affair with China. “I love the Chinese open‐mindedness and interest in acquiring knowledge and specialization,” which explains why she has chosen that country to premiere an exhibit of her life’s work and art.

True to her Swiss origins, in a time and age inundated by cheap, ephemeral, mass production, Francine Lecoultre remains inspired by quality craftsmanship, practical simplicity and the timelessness of real artistic creation. Her reputation is justly based on her work ethic, indefatigable insistence on quality, and unique understanding that textiles and costumes must be beautiful, functional, comfortable and impeccably adapted to the person and the purpose for which they were invented.

Always seeking a fresh look or new fabric, Francine brings the concept of costume creation to a whole new level of creativity, invention and vision. Her artistic language is edgy, sexy, surprising, colorful and unusual. As an artist, she combines imagination and business. As an inventor, she mixes functionality and beauty.

Francine Lecoultre is one of Hollywood’s preeminent textile and costume designers. In this Q & A, Francine describes her experience and influences as an artist, the practicalities of her profession, and the confluence between art and science in her creations.

When did you decide that you would be an artist? At age seven, I declared I wanted to be a seamstress. As a teenager dreaming about my future, I decided to attend art school. My parents influenced me to first complete more general studies. I became an educator. From that point, I was able to finance my own education in art, psycho‐sociology and other domains. My curiosity was insatiable and unstoppable.

When did you finally feel "I am an artist"? The point of no return came with my decision to make a living with my art, which coincided with my departure for the U.S. I gave up a safe position as an art professor in Switzerland. This was a point of no return and sparked a transformation on all levels. Once I embraced the risk and excitement of being a freelance artist /designer, I had to entirely rely on myself. Starting over in a new country, I had to learn everything, including the rules of a tough game in a very competitive city–Los Angeles. But all of this pressure fueled my creative risk‐taking.

Do you have a single greatest influence? The artists and intellectuals among my relatives have been a great influence. My father, grandfather and great‐grandfather were entrepreneurs in the Swiss watch business. In my eyes, they were inspired inventors and brilliant craftsmen. Other family members who touched me Silk screening Dévoré on Silk velvet were my Great Uncle Jean Louis Perret, a famous writer, and my distant cousin Jacqueline Veuve, one of Switzerland’s best documentary filmmakers. They followed their hearts and found expression in art.

What is on your artistic bucket list? I am currently working on several new art projects at my studio at The Brewery Arts Complex in Los Angeles, which is an inspiring hub for artists. I also feel very inspired by several new commissions, and upcoming art exhibits in the U.S., Europe and China.

11 ART MEETS SCIENCE

And your textile bucket list? When I look at a fabric I can see a whole world of possibility. The film industry affords a creative artist like myself infinite opportunities—and challenges—to invent and design specialty textiles, whether for a period drama or a sci‐fi fantasy. I’m also interested in researching patterns for the Textile Industry as a whole, being fascinated by the Swiss Textile Industry in St Gallen. The Master Ateliers of Jakob Schlaepfer, and Abraham Ltd are jewels in the textile world and the opportunity to collaborate with them would be a dream!

What are among the more unusual ingredients you have used in your textile creation? Walnut husks, squid ink and tree bark, as well as plant fibers of all sorts, inspired by my research into Paper Art.

Is there an example of mistake made that resulted in an invention? My screens for silk screening were badly cleaned with an inferior product. This resulted in a “misprint and ageing” effect on gold foil printing. This “mistake” became my exclusive trademark technique: “Luxurious antique gold foil brocades on silk velvet.”

Is there a dangerous side to your profession? There definitely is a dangerous side to costume design. Garments used by stunt doubles in action films come in contact with heat, fire and water… They must be developed to withstand fire and water. It’s not only the look of a costume that matters. Many need to be designed so they won’t impede a fighter, dancer, or gladiator, not to mention muck, snow or rain. The fabrics are stress‐ tested through multiple rehearsals. Manufacturing with chemicals can also present a great danger. Hollywood Unions have rigorous health and safety rules, and require one to attend Monkeybone Silk screening with gold foil, antique frequent mandatory safety classes. effect

12 ART MEETS SCIENCE

What function does discipline have in the process of creating costumes, textiles…? Patience and persistence are the cornerstones of the creative process. I like a creative challenge. A costume designer needs to also be a storyteller who can help a director realize a character’s creative look. Designing costumes and creating textiles for period dramas, Sci‐Fi and Fantasy films are my favorites. These also create their own challenges. The timing in drying, flashing, mixing proportions are critical. Everything has different shades, like old objects, weathered by time and the elements. Working with museum quality effects, 3D, and sculptural finishes require multiple skills and techniques: sculpting, molding, silk‐screening, digital printing, sketches and research. An enormous amount of time is spent practicing, testing, creating samples, constantly inventing and stretching the limits to create something that is unique. Durability and stress testing are key. Textiles need to be resilient to action scenes and the long hours of shootings. There are always doubles or multiples of every costume you see on screen. Sometimes it is necessary to fabricate 30 pieces for one single costume so they last the duration of a project.

What are the differences between working and creating in America, Europe and Asia? Anything is possible in Los Angeles. The sky is the limit. Turn around is fast, quality is good. I feel at home in Hollywood. Many items are outsourced. European style and fashion are welcome. When time allows, exotic touches and manufacturing are appreciated. Working on location requires good logistics. I look for the ingredients for my fabrics locally as much as I can, and then import the rest. I have worked as an International Costume Designer on major theatrical productions in Asia and Europe, Opening Ceremonies, Musical Circuses, Opera and Ballet. I am usually given much more time to design and prepare for these shows. I’ve found that many Asian producers love the Hollywood style as well as European avant‐garde sophistication. Directors of opera and ballet often revel in specialty fabrics and high‐scale "Batman & Robin” printed silk, plastified European materials and accessories.

Describe how each continent inspires you? I have been fortunate to travel in distant locations on several projects: India, China, all over Europe and Eastern Europe, Canada, Jamaica, and more, where I spent up to two years designing costumes. The technologic global reach has changed the paradigm. Discovering different climate, language and food, ethnic differences, socio –cultural events and every day life have made these extraordinary projects a transformational adventure. My partners and local crews have supported me in discovering the richness and secrets of extraordinary artistry and craftsmanship

13 ART MEETS SCIENCE

What is your greatest ambition? I am committed to support and facilitate global visual communication through writing, lecturing, teaching, mixed media presentations, traveling exhibitions and interactive Events. Being a visionary leader and a pioneer, developing innovative concepts and unusual visual language supporting the story, with cutting edge technology. My costume designs and textured textiles are a natural fit for Hollywood Motion Picture feature films and spectacular stage productions around the world. As an artist: Combining art and business. Being prolific. Being true to my own artistic language and message: From the middle ages, to futuristic fantasy, to the Italian Renaissance, my imagination travels throughout history. My art pieces created with plants are the symbol for the respect of nature, health and food for the next generations. May we protect them.

As an inventor: Mixing functionality and beauty. Starting with prototype testing, I bring the outlook of a scientist to my creations. First and foremost, it has to work. After that, you make it beautiful.

As a woman: being Head of Department on a major international project. Contributing to large scale productions and sharing knowledge, art and passion with less fortunate.

As a Swiss national: to serve as an inspiration for young Swiss artists and, in particular, women Night at The Museum 3 Guinevere, Dévoré, Silk velvet artists.

What is the best thing about being a Swiss artist? Art is international. Many world famous Swiss artists, such as Giacometti, Paul Klee, Godard, architects Le Corbusier or Mario Botta are known for the excellence of their work and not identified in the public mind as artists from Switzerland. Swiss people travel a lot. Switzerland is a multi‐cultural country, with not just one, but several national identities and languages. When traveling, Swiss people quickly melt into the crowd, being flexible and adaptable. They don’t stick together. They appreciate what they can find in distant locations, looking for what is different, unique. I don’t consider myself a Swiss artist. I am a global citizen.
