History

Founded in 1995 by Tony and Georgette Elicha in Toulouse, the brand gained prominence through its Mother and Daughter advertising campaigns. These campaigns featured real-life pairs instead of professional models, emphasizing intergenerational style. In 2005, the Japanese conglomerate Fast Retailing acquired the company. Historically, the brand contributed to the democratization of the French girl aesthetic, bridging the gap between luxury boutiques and mass-market retail through high-quality basics.
