About the role
Translated into English from French by Korum. The employer's original wording is on their site.
THE JACQUEMUS HOUSE
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 refer to the French art of living and to universal gestures of beauty, incorporating influences ranging from art photography to decorative arts, as well as cinema, painting and sculpture.
Over the years, Jacquemus has staged its runway shows in unique and unexpected locations, including a Parisian swimming pool, the Musée Picasso, a lavender field in Provence, a wheat field on the outskirts of Paris, a salt marsh in the Camargue and a beach in Hawaii. More recently, the brand has taken over venues such as the canal at the Château de Versailles (Le Chouchou), the Fondation Maeght (Les Sculptures), the Casa Malaparte (La Casa) and the Parisian apartment of Auguste Perret (La Croisière).
Based in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, Jacquemus is an independent fashion house with more than 300 employees. Known for its strong digital presence and its international expansion, the brand developed innovative retail experiences around the world before opening its first permanent flagship at 58 Avenue Montaigne in Paris in 2022. Since then, boutiques have opened in New York (SoHo) and London (New Bond Street).
