The Art of French Elegance

EPV stands for 'Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant' (Living Heritage Company). It's a prestigious French government label that distinguishes French companies with exceptional artisanal and industrial know-how. EPV-certified companies preserve rare traditional craftsmanship and heritage skills, often passed down through generations. Many of our fashion partners carry this certification.

Our silk products come primarily from Lyon, historically known as the silk capital of the world since the 15th century. Lyon's silk ateliers continue to use traditional Jacquard looms and hand-printing techniques passed down through centuries. Each silk scarf, tie, or accessory comes with full provenance documentation.

French clothing uses European sizing, which differs slightly from US and UK sizes. For example, a French size 38 is roughly equivalent to a US size 6 or UK size 10. We provide detailed size guides for each product and our customer service team can help you find the perfect fit. Most of our luxury items are available in a wide range of sizes.

Absolutely. All our leather products are made from 100% genuine French leather — primarily calfskin, lambskin, and occasionally exotic leathers from ethical sources. Each leather item is handcrafted by master leatherworkers in Paris, Limoges, or other French leatherworking centers. We provide certificates of authenticity with every leather purchase.

Yes, many of our haute couture and luxury fashion pieces can be custom-tailored to your exact measurements. Our made-to-measure service is available for suits, blazers, dresses, and select accessories. Please contact our fashion consultants at [email protected] to discuss your custom order. Typical production time is 4-8 weeks for bespoke pieces.

Each product comes with detailed care instructions. Generally: silk items should be dry-cleaned or hand-washed gently; leather goods benefit from regular conditioning with appropriate products; cashmere should be hand-washed in cold water with mild detergent and laid flat to dry. Our customer service team can provide specific care advice for any product.
