Jacquemus
Fashion Designer
Jacquemus is a French brand, founded in 2009 by Simon Porte Jacquemus. At just 19, Simon Porte Jacquemus moved to Paris from the Provence countryside, with the aim to start his own brand, Jacquemus. After working at a Comme des Garçons boutique, the Jacquemus brand quickly gained the support of Rei Kawakubo, pushing the brand into the spotlight. In 2017, Jacquemus added a footwear brand alongside his womenswear offering, and launched menswear in 2019.
The brand has been recognised by the fashion industry multiple times. In 2014, Jacquemus was a finalist in the LVMH Prize, receiving the Special Jury Prize in the LVMH Prize a year later in 2015. Jacquemus also won Fashion Director's Choice Award at the ELLE Style Awards in 2017.
