This thirty-year-old native of Guadeloupe is a volcano that nothing can stop. It was late in her life that Ana\u00efck decided to give up everything to pursue a childhood dream \u2013 to become a fashion designer. A reconversion that led her to question the barriers we put up for ourselves as well as the mental burden of success in Caribbean culture. Portrait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-videopress\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"VideoPress Video Player\" aria-label='VideoPress Video Player' width='900' height='506' src='https:\/\/videopress.com\/embed\/8aMKG0zD?cover=1&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=1&hd=1' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen data-resize-to-parent=\"true\" allow='clipboard-write'><\/iframe><script src='https:\/\/v0.wordpress.com\/js\/next\/videopress-iframe.js?m=1658470809'><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abMy favourite anecdote comes from my childhood. My mother was a devout churchgoer and we used to go to mass every Sunday. I didn\u2019t go anywhere without my markers and coloured pencils. I was only five years old, so that was the best way to keep me still. So during mass, I would quietly colour in the little booklets and imagine clothes for the different characters. I knew right away that this is what I wanted to do. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some would argue that our passions are innate and childhood a revealer. Ana\u00efck, as many artists would say, has always known what drives her \u2013 fashion, designing collections, catwalks, creativity and the versatility of the industry fascinate her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where others would mention Dior or Chanel as their first inspiration without batting an eyelid \u2013 you have to show your credentials in an environment bordering on claustrophobia \u2013 Ana\u00efck likes to bring things as close to home as possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOf course Dior, Chanel and haute couture make people dream, and yes, it can be very beautiful. This type of handwork is difficult to find nowadays, but what is haute couture, really? When I see how Jean-Marc Beno\u00eet\u2019s sublimates straw in his work, or Daniel Garriga who mixes and harmonises improbable colours, the fluidity of Andrea Iyamah\u2019s pieces or Stella Jean\u2019s work with patterns\u2026 for me it\u2019s the same. We have to stop idolising the \u2018classics\u2019 blindly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond idolatry, it is the decolonization of our aesthetics that is at stake. To whom and to what do we grant the status of \u2018haute couture\u2019? Who are the guarantors and, above all, who are the gatekeepers? These are questions that many designers of colour face every day \u2013 especially women designers. Ana\u00efck, who has been working in the field for a few years, is no stranger to this either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn my last job I know that was a problem. Fashion is a small world, very competitive with a majority of women, but it\u2019s the designers who get the best of it. When you\u2019re a black woman, you\u2019re already standing out and if you express your displeasure, you\u2019re immediately labelled an angry black woman<em>.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So she decided to take matters into her own hands and set up her own brand after a complicated professional experience and a deep introspection that will allow her to realise how far she had come and the extent of the know-how she gained over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"anaick-calif-for-the-love-of-fashion\">Anaick Calif: for the love of fashion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00ab I realised that the only thing holding me back was my lack of confidence. I have an atypical background and my last professional adventure was mentally difficult, even if it resulted in a very nice collection. But if I can give 100% to someone else\u2019s vision, why not to my own? \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uncertainty can be a real poison for the mind, but Ana\u00efck refuses to let herself become her own worst enemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abRegularly I tell myself that there are more useful jobs out there and this is just one more brand in a sea of designers that seems to be getting bigger every day. But on the other hand, it reminds me that this is really what I love, that I bring my touch, my personality. It\u2019s a challenge for me to see a project through from start to finish, beyond the need to know if customers will buy my designs or not\u2026 and if that can motivate some to make that leap of faith, that\u2019s fine by me! \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGetting things done.\u201d If there is one message her creations seek to convey, it is this. To do things, against all odds \u2013 and especially against oneself, as an encouragement to others and to herself to not give up.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy designs are functional and versatile. I want people to feel comfortable. The fashion industry is the most polluting and it\u2019s a real emergency, so I also go for minimalism. In reality, you don\u2019t need a thousand clothes if you have designs that fit all situations. This is my way of contributing to the fight against climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a world where trends come and go at the pace of Instagram or TikTok algorithms, creative muses can quickly become elusive and original ideas much, much more rare. A phenomenon that does not worry Ana\u00efck too much. For her, inspiration is all around us if we know how to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI made peace with the idea that one can\u2019t be inspired at all times. When I was younger, my creativity was difficult to channel, but when you get into the business, you have to content with the fact that reality is quite different. Exhibitions, concerts, books\u2026 I love it. I put art into my life whenever I can. But what moves me the most is landscapes\u2026 probably because of my passion for travelling. It\u2019s quite complicated at the moment, but even a weekend away from the city can be enough. A little discovery, a hidden, bucolic spot and here we go again. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, like those she admires, Ana\u00efck is determined to integrate elements of Creole culture into her creations \u2013 an act of activism, almost -, that she considers indispensable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur identities are rich, and I think we are not aware of this enough. For me, it\u2019s a way of keeping our culture alive, making it timeless. My ultimate dream is to see my clients wearing my creations, which all have a bit of Caribbean flavour, whether they are aware of it or not\u2026 that they wear this culture and that it speaks to the world!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-subscriptions__supports-newline wp-block-jetpack-subscriptions\">\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/myqamar.com\/gb\/2021\/09\/13\/rethinking-success-with-anaick-calif\/\" style=\"font-size: 16px;padding: 15px 23px 15px 23px;margin: 0; margin-left: 10px;border-radius: 0px;border-width: 1px; background-color: #113AF5; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; margin-left: 0\">Subscribe<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"changing-careers-an-act-of-faith\">Changing careers: an act of faith<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For our interview, Ana\u00efck took the time to reflect on the creations that have made her most proud. Two of them immediately come to mind, undoubtedly because they were decisive turning points at a time when she was still confirming her choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, Ana\u00efck, who has always had an artistic streak, excelled in her Humanities studies with a Plastic Arts minor. But under pressure from her parents \u2013 not to mention the prohibitive prices of fashion schools \u2013 she opted for something that seemed more substantial to them before landing in film school anyway. As a prop maker and production manager, she conquered her world. It only lasted for a while. The call of fashion became too strong, and she couldn\u2019t help but return to her first love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe first one was as part of my Bac Pro Fashion Professions. It was an internship project, a mix of trends I had spotted and something that was on my mind. Basically, it\u2019s a kind of loose-fitting overalls that can be worn on its own or with a t-shirt to keep it simple. And my mother loved it, although I never thought she would. I won a prize for this design \u2013 which I went to collect wearing my outfit of course (laughs)\u2026 which won me my very first customer! The second is a trenchcoat made from sailcloth that one of my acquaintances liked so much that they asked me to create a line of unconventional wedding clothes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A seminal moment that encouraged the young designer on a path she had long looked at from afar with eyes full of stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It all started when Ana\u00efck went to New Zealand. With a bag on her back, she set off to discover the kiwi island \u2013 alone. But more than the island, she set out to find herself. In an unknown land, it is always easier to allow yourself to be who you are freely, far from the perhaps disapproving looks of those who think they know you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI weighed the pros and cons and realised that I didn\u2019t want to waste time anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So she started in the film industry, a field she already knew well. On the side, she took classes at a fashion school and landed a role as an assistant costume designer. This was an enriching experience that allowed her to learn on the job. Shortly afterwards she became a stylist for a costume shop.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00abIt was really good. I learned a lot, especially about historical costumes. My client base was made up of the all New Zealander cinema. When it was time to go home, there was no way I was going to do anything else, so I went back to school to get some serious training.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ana\u00efck spent the next two years retraining, but also creating and making clothes, the starting point of a path that she knows will be long when one lacks the means and the right contacts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey often ask for ten years of experience in addition to a background in the field. So I said to myself that I would create my own experience by setting up my own business from the start. It is this experience that gives me confidence in the future. I did it myself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"questioning-success-removing-obstacles\">Questioning success, removing obstacles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freshly graduated, the creator takes on projects of all kinds \u2013 it\u2019s all about gaining competences while making a name for herself. Now based in Montreal, Ana\u00efck has no regrets. She believes that her late transition to a new career has allowed her to start with an experience and a maturity that her twenties would not have allowed for\u2026 which does not keep her from examining critically the factors that delayed this choice of career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have too few successful role models who break out of the box we are limited to, especially in the Caribbean. Choosing the arts, or any other creative career for that matter is seen as irresponsible, a whim. You have to do well, go to college, come back with at least a master\u2019s degree, and then fit in with the rest of the world \u2013 metro, work, sleep\u2026 minus the metro and adding the traffic jams. What light are we really shedding on our designers?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that is not all. According to her, the family constraints are just as rigid. In Caribbean homes, you must be serious to ensure a solid future, and many parents try to nip in the bud any artistic aspirations that are supposed to remain in the realm of leisure. Pursuing one\u2019s dreams is a radical act of courage. It is to go against a society that strives to remodel us into good little value-adding members of society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur parents want us to do well. Of course, they care and wish us the best possible future given who we are, where we come from, our history\u2026 But often it\u2019s at the expense of our deeper natures. To say that fashion is not a real job, that it\u2019s not what you\u2019re meant to do\u2026 is wrong and it takes away our ability to choose. I always knew I would work in fashion; I just didn\u2019t know when.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also an element of concern for those who would like to pursue a career home like Ana\u00efck. While more and more young people are taking the decision to return to the motherland, she questions the many Instagram accounts that glamorise a reality that is known to be much more complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The gaze cast on the one who returns home can be heavy as if in search of an <em>alteration<\/em> caught like a disease over the years spent outside of the island. But it is also the gaze of the one who returns that changes \u2013 the gaze on oneself, on the other and on an island that has perhaps not evolved as much as hoped.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHaving experienced this several times, it is a culture shock to return. I too wanted to contribute to this myth that we have to build up our island as a sacrosanct duty for which we would have a sort of collective responsibility, and I literally banged into a wall. My accent, my way of thinking \u2013 it was quickly made clear to me that it would not pass\u2026 especially when you try to change things. Resistance is a protective reflex that represses those who would not readjust to the local ways.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A legitimate concern that Ana\u00efck tries to alleviate by reading all the content posted online by young Caribbean folks who have begun their transition or those encouraging exiles to take the plunge. However, if starting her own business in Canada was obvious, maintaining her operations with an international focus from Guadeloupe seems more complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s a real question that keeps nagging at me. Of course, I want to settle in Guadeloupe \u2013 it\u2019s my home. But I\u2019m also afraid that it will limit me, even though I recognise that the technological context is different. Things that were not possible even five or ten years ago are possible today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So many sociological and psychological barriers must be broken down before success can be expected. A reflection which has led Ana\u00efck to review her own definition of what success means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor a long time, I had the impression that you had to be recognised abroad or in France to be recognised by your own people. But after years of wandering and travelling, it seems less important to me. I decided to free myself from the gaze of others and do what makes me happy \u2013 for me and never mind the recognition. For me, success means being able to take time for myself to recharge my batteries. It\u2019s not even a debate anymore. It\u2019s a must.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After two hours of discussion, the chatter finally stops. Ana\u00efck has to go look for fabric for a client\u2019s project \u2013 a dress. With a smile on her lips, she explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI like to conceptualise, to start with an inspirational image and to see a piece take shape. These are my favourite moments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As she gets ready, Ana\u00efck has a glint in her eye. The volcano has awakened.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\"><\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 16<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>Ana\u00efck Calif gave up everything to pursue her childhood dream of becoming a fashion designer; a reconversion that made her question what success looks like in Caribbean culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8726,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Ana\u00efck Calif d\u00e9cide sur le tard de tout l\u00e2cher afin de poursuivre un r\u00eave d\u2019enfant \u2013 devenir cr\u00e9atrice de mode.
