Just one week after Speed Paris launched its second collection, it’s time for an inside look at this creative journey. It all began during a showroom event at Studio Marais, where Speed Paris presented its first collection. For the Creative Valley team, this marked a return to our roots in the fashion industry, coinciding with renewed international activities - including a trip to Hong Kong for the CENTRESTAGE conference, a major event for Asian and European fashion.
After the event, follow-up discussions with Diana Arhire developed quickly and naturally. The synergy was clear, and that’s how the partnership between Creative Valley and Speed Paris truly began.

Diana Arhire, a Romanian-born designer now based in Paris, is the creative force behind Speed. Coming from a family rooted in science (two doctors and a finance professional), Diana pursued art and craft from an early age, eventually earning a double degree from Istituto Marangoni Paris (Manchester Metropolitan University + RNCP). Her experience spans fashion showrooms, design workshops, production, and marketing. Diana’s approach combines precise tailoring, an eye for contemporary style, and a commitment to sourcing fabrics predominantly from her home country, Romania. She stands out for her energy, her structured creative process, and her dedication to responsible production.

Speed Paris made a name for itself by winning a fashion competition and launching a distinctive first collection.

The brand then took part in CENTRESTAGE in Hong Kong - a key meeting point for Asian and European designers - showcasing a preview of the second collection. This international exposure built anticipation for “Doină,” Speed Paris’ new collection, launched in Paris just one week ago.
The launch event brought together designers, industry professionals, and international buyers, reflecting the growing interest in Diana’s creative vision and the Speed Paris brand.

The Paris showroom event for “Doină” showcased refined fabrics, distinctive cuts, and the emotional storytelling behind every piece. Attended by professionals, journalists, and buyers, it marked an important milestone for Diana and Speed Paris, confirming their place in the emerging fashion scene.Doină by Speed Paris turns the Romanian sentiment of dor - a profound, bittersweet longing - into wearable emotion. Raw yet refined, each piece blends simple shapes and natural textures, challenging traditional masculinity with designs that embrace vulnerability as a new strength. More than a spectacle, Doină is a modern myth woven in fabric, echoing memory, tenderness, and the feelings we carry.
