In April 2024, the fashion world welcomed Paul et Paulette, a leisurewear brand that’s a heartfelt tribute born from love and loss. Specializing in garments crafted from terry towelling, this brand brings comfort and meaning to casual fashion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul et Paulette will be in Monaco, back to its roots presenting their collection as a POP UP in ICONIC DESIGN<\/a>, Interior Design showroom, at 11 Rue Grimaldi from the 18th of July to the 20th of July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story begins with tragedy. The founder\u2019s sister, Sam, a model booker in Paris, lost her life in a tsunami. In the aftermath, the founder sought to honour Sam\u2019s memory in a lasting way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“After my sister Sam passed away, I wanted to create something everlasting in her memory,” the founder explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eureka moment came unexpectedly. “One morning, while getting dressed, I put on a terry towelling dress that belonged to my sister,” the founder recalls. “Suddenly, everything clicked. Sam loved terry towelling clothing, especially in summer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This realization sparked the concept for Paul et Paulette. The founder began by recreating several of Sam\u2019s favourite terry towelling pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Evolution of Paul et Paulette: Bringing Glamour Back to Leisure Wear<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paul et Paulette is not just a brand \u2013 it\u2019s a revival of elegance in leisure apparel, inspired by personal loss, family heritage, and vintage glamour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trade name honours the founder\u2019s grandparents from Monaco: Paulette Cohet-Lavie, who owned the local drug store, and Paul Dumollard, a well-respected accountant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This connection to Monaco\u2019s history is woven into the brand, both literally and figuratively. Paul et Paulette specializes in terry towelling garments, reimagining this material into stylish pieces that evoke Riviera chic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The founder partnered with fashion designer Joan Querol to bring the vision to life. “I\u2019m a lover of 1920s, 30s, 40s, and 50s fashion and film,” the founder explains. “I wanted to bring back elegance, style, and glamour to leisure apparel.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
