After stepping down as creative director of Hermès in 2014, Christophe Lemaire has devoted all his energy to creating a clothing line, which he co-leads with Sarah-Linh Tran. The brand became known thanks to sensual, restrained models, which are based on the quality, function, and comfort of everyday life. The list of inspiration includes contemporary artists, men's wardrobe classics, and the Marais district of Paris, where designers create their pieces.
