French term or phrase: Chacune de nos créations
Chacune de nos créations est unique comme une oeuvre d'art traversant le temps

Each one of our creations is unique like an ageless art form/ work of art/ expression of art.

I would like to know what you think about the English sentence? Is it good? Could I make it better? Thank you very much

agree  polyglot45: how could I disagree but I would stop here if I were you for obvious reasons - just don't do the whole job for your own sake !

  -> Thank you, I wasn't trying to take any credit for timeless - I thought that it was obvious that you were there with it first!
agree  B D Finch: Not "everyone", as that refers to people "every one" for things.

Oops sorry, didn't see the heading, so we know it's a fashion collection. I still like creations though... Maybe 'pieces' would work if it's really haute couture and completely unique.
