Back to Basics
Jacquemus, the story of a fashion house born in Provence
Few designers have established their name as quickly as Jacquemus. In just fifteen years, this French brand born in the South has become a benchmark for an entire generation. At The Last Step, you'll find its most sought-after pieces, especially the t-shirts, often in sizes unavailable elsewhere. But before becoming a fashion icon, Jacquemus is first and foremost a story, that of a young designer who built his house from almost nothing.
The story begins in 2009. Simon Porte Jacquemus founded his fashion house at just 19 years old. The name is no coincidence: it's a tribute to his mother, whose surname he bears. Everyone in the fashion world knows this journey today.
The young founder grew up in the South, near Aix-en-Provence, before moving to Paris. There, without a prestigious school or a large budget, he made a name for himself through his work. While other designers of his generation chased Parisian fashion codes, he sold his clothing directly from the ground in front of fashion shows. The wild gamble of a designer who then had almost nothing. Spotted in Paris by the LVMH Prize jury, where he was a finalist, this founder went from outsider to a significant player in France and abroad in just a few seasons. His creations quickly joined the best concept stores: Dover Street Market in London, Le Broken Arm in Paris, Opening Ceremony in New York.
The Jacquemus signature: minimalism and Southern sunshine
The brand's identity lies in a few key elements: clean cuts, a sun-drenched palette, and a kind of assumed simplicity. Nothing is overdone. Silhouettes get straight to the point, and the colors evoke Southern landscapes: wheat yellow, sky blue, sand beige.
As for accessories, it's hard to miss the Le Chiquito bag, the micro-bag that has become a cult item on social media. Everyone knows this bag. There's also the Le Gago line, which is more structured. These two formats perfectly summarize the brand's spirit: a clever detail, an unexpected allure, and success follows. The style also features simple, well-cut fabrics and a few graphic prints, never flashy.
Spectacular fashion shows, from the Palace of Versailles to lavender fields
The fashion shows resemble true open-air films. A show in lavender fields, another in the alleys of the Palace of Versailles: the brand pays as much attention to the staging as to the clothes. This theatricality is part of its DNA.
