Maxime Druez fonde Yunso en septembre 2017. Il dévoile sa première ligne de shorts de bain et accessoires dédiés au vestiaire masculin. Une collection contemporaine aux détails originaux, inspirée de l’environnement naturel et du continent asiatique.
Dans son atelier parisien, Maxime Druez imagine des modèles forts, résolument masculins par leur association de couleurs audacieuses, en passant par des lignes graphiques à l’imprimé animal. L’intensité de la peau du serpent corail, l’élégance de la tentacule de pieuvre ou encore les lianes épineuses rappelant les forêts tropicales d’Asie… A travers cette ligne moderne, Maxime Druez partage directement sa passion pour les voyages et son amour de la nature.
Une collection riche en découvertes, composée de shorts de bain 100% polyester (vendus dans leur pochette Yunso en coton bio) au séchage rapide avec des coupes adaptées au corps des hommes en mouvement, d’une ceinture élastique, d’un filet intégré et aux finitions travaillées. Pour toujours plus de style, associez un bracelet de notre gamme «YUNSO Accessories» à votre maillot. 3 bracelets pour 3 maillots. A chacun son humeur!

This editorial, « A Hungarian Boy from Youngstown », is a tribute to James and his Hungarian and Romanian roots and to all immigrants who have sacrificed their lives in 12-hour shifts in factories in order to provide their children with a better life. James Cancel, the model, is the son of immigrant parents from Hungary who came to Youngstown because others from their family had come before them. Little did they know the city was nearly dead when they got there. The logo I created is a modern rendition of the old Youngstown Sheet & Tube logo, the steel mill for which Youngstown, Ohio, was famous and the steel mill that drew tens of thousands of immigrants to Ohio to work in the sweatshops and steel factories.
For nearly 75 years, that factory provided work to immigrants from all over Eastern Europe, the Irish, the Italian and Puerto Ricans from the Caribbean. In the mid-70s, Youngstown Sheet & Tube closed and the Youngstown economy was devastated. Within 20 years, the city had lost 75 percent of its population and had nearly gone bankrupt. For a time in the 90s, Youngstown’s major trade was drugs and it was the murder capital in the United States.
Now, art galleries have begun to spring up in abandoned buildings and a beer company has set up shop in the old railroad station. Slowly but surely, the City of Youngstown is trying to be reborn.
