Every December, renowned personalities from the world of fashion, design or architecture, bring their talent to offer their unique vision of the Christmas tree. Some literal and others figurative. In the past, the organization has proudly collaborated with such impressive names as Jean-Paul Gaultier, Chantal Thomass, Chanel, Dior, Sonia Rykiel and Louis Vuitton.
