INSPIRE | EXHILARATE | DELIGHT

For over six decades, Chalhoub Group has been a partner and creator of luxury experiences in the Middle East. The Group, in its endeavour to excel as a hybrid retailer, has reinforced its distribution and marketing services with a portfolio of eight owned brands and over 300 international brands in the luxury, beauty, fashion, and art de vivre categories. More recently, the Group expanded its expertise into new categories of luxury watches, jewellery, and eyewear.

Jacquemus was founded by Simon Porte Jacquemus in 2009 in Paris, France.

Dedicated to the memory of the designer's mother, the brand draws its inspiration from a passion for culture. The women's and men's collections reference the French art of living and universal beauty gestures, incorporating influences ranging from fine art photography to decorative arts, cinema, painting, and sculpture.

Over the years, Jacquemus has staged its runway shows in unique and unexpected locations, including a Parisian swimming pool, the Picasso Museum, a lavender field in Provence, a wheat field outside Paris, a salt marsh in the Camargue, and a beach in Hawaii. More recently, the brand has invested in locations such as the canal of the Château de Versailles (Le Chouchou), the Fondation Maeght (Les Sculptures), Casa Malaparte (La Casa), and Auguste Perret's Parisian apartment (La Croisière).

Based in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, Jacquemus is an independent fashion house with over 300 employees. Renowned for its strong digital presence and international expansion, the brand has developed innovative retail experiences across the world before opening its first permanent flagship at 58 Avenue Montaigne in Paris in 2022. Since then, boutiques have been opened in New York (SoHo), London (New Bond Street), and Dubai.
