Marais USA {Fall/Winter Collection Video}

"The Fall/ Winter Marais USA video features shots from our most recent photoshoot. Filmed in a friend's apartment in Brooklyn, the video features us and three of our friends goofing around while getting ready for the shoot. We brought all our own clothes, threw them in a hallway, and started styling our favorite outfits with our favorite Marais shoes. Most of the time, it felt like we were just throwing a party and eating lots of cake!" 

—Catherine Chen, co-designer of Marais USA. 

Featuring: Veronika, Bjarsch, Haley Boyd, Catherine Chen, Amanda Merten, and Danielle Meyer. Location: Amanda’s Apartment, Brooklyn, New York. Directed by Ross Fraser. Edited by Catherine Chen. Music: “Knotty Pine” by Dirty Projectors and David Byrne.
