Each week, we invite a woman or a man from the Linnea Lund community to discuss their relationship with fashion, their wardrobe, and how they enjoy mixing our iconic cashmere pieces. This time, Paul-Henry Bizon, a writer, is the man of the week for #MyLinneaLund!

Paul-Henry Bizon is a reserved man, but his apparent serenity hides someone passionate about introspection. He is sometimes concerned about the direction the world is taking, yet this does not prevent him from passionately believing in humanity. He enjoys observing it to reinvent it better in his novels, shaping raw contours that question our own humanity. Because our future is not set in stone, it is winding and a bit tortuous, yet beautifully luminous. This glimmer of hope also punctuates his first two novels, both brilliant, as romantic as they are enlightening.

Deforestation, intensive agriculture, disfigured countryside, land overexploitation, soil depletion, and the impoverishment of those who cultivate it... In "La louve," his first novel, Paul-Henry Bizon denounced the abrupt changes experienced by the agricultural world. Light and healing emanated from his female characters. Because Paul-Henry loves women, defends their rights, highlights their strengths, and transforms their flaws into romantic charm. In "Olympia," his second novel published last September and centered around the charismatic and enigmatic figure of Marie-Josée Pérec, the writer tackles a rough aspect of the sports world, where forms of tyranny, sexism, and brutality against women prevail. Once again, an enlightening work.

But let's return to a bit more gentleness and lightness that the writer is not devoid of, a friend of Charlotte, founder of Linnea Lund, for over a decade. It is with complicity that they meet at Café Classique, the author's HQ just a stone's throw from Montmartre, to discuss their lives, the battles that drive them, and their relationship with time, fashion, and the contrasting landscapes of Sweden, as enchanting in spring as they are harsh in winter.

How would you define your style?
Basic, comfortable, and simple. I like simplicity!

What is your favorite color from the Linnea Lund palette?
The Charles Macchiato that I'm wearing today.

What objects do you think represent Sweden?
Swans in the Baltic Sea... We are not prepared for that, and it's very beautiful.

If I say "cashmere," what comes to your mind?
Softness, a cocoon of softness.
