ABOUT

With a unique and refreshing view on fashion, Valentine Gauthier creates contemporary and urban collections and proposes a refined and complete wardrobe based on daily inspirations. The pieces, made of noble and natural materials, are designed in Gauthier’s Atelier in the Marais.

Valentine Gauthier opened as a flagship in the High Marais, Paris in 2018, with two shops and an apartment. The Valentine Gauthier wardrobe is refined, boyish and inspired by a workwear wardrobe for an assertive style. Each piece is elaborated in a comfort approach with style and conscience. Delicately printed silk or cotton transparencies, the raw fabrics of the workers' materials, tweed wool, English velvets, lace, poplin and twill are at the heart of the collections. The print designs created in the workshop balance the solid or muted colours of this identity and timeless cloakroom. The silhouette is completed by iconic vegetable-tanned leather moccasins and boots made in the workshop of his companion, a bootmaker for 4 generations.

Quality and sustainability is at the heart of Valentine Gauthier, with each piece of the wardrobe made in a limited number of fabrics from French, Italian or English weavers' workshops. Valentine pays particular attention to the choice of natural and/or recycled fabrics, the quality of manufacture, the cut, as well as the choice of buttons and finishes.

THE APARTMENT

Thought of as a place to live and create, the apartment is Valentine's secret address. A space defined by a certain art of living where you can discover the furniture of his companion, coffee table, photographs and ceramics of friends, the timeless iconic wardrobe as well as current and future collaborations. Available on order or immediately. Generally reserved for professionals, the apartment is open to the public by appointment.
