About the brand

Celine

Céline, founded in 1945 by Céline Vipiana in Paris, began as a custom children's shoe boutique. The company quickly gained a reputation for its high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. In the 1960s, Céline diversified by launching a line of women's ready-to-wear, focusing on elegant and functional clothing for modern women. The brand became synonymous with understated luxury and sophistication. In 1996, Céline was acquired by the luxury group LVMH, marking the beginning of a new era of growth and international expansion. Under the leadership of various talented designers, including Michael Kors in the 1990s and Phoebe Philo from 2008 to 2018, Céline strengthened its brand identity with minimalist and avant-garde collections, attracting a loyal and sophisticated clientele. In 2018, Hedi Slimane took over the artistic direction of Céline, bringing a new vision and expanding the brand's offerings to include men's clothing and accessories. Today, Céline continues to embody Parisian elegance with a contemporary touch, while remaining true to its heritage of quality and innovation.
