LES DUNES is a French brand that expresses a strong attachment to the story, intention and detail behind each piece.
Each one reflects a thoughtful approach to real-life dressing - designed to follow the body, serve a real purpose and be part of a personal story. It's when style, comfort and material come together.
In our studio, we create limited series collections, as well as one-off pieces, which emerge from a constant search for meaning around the garment, for which we retain a special affection.
LES DUNES was founded in Toulouse in south-west France, then opened its first creative studio in Paris.
We work with small, family-run businesses in Paris and the Île-de-France region for our garments, fabric selection and supplies.
We also maintain a strong link with the Occitanie region, both in our inspiration and in our craftsmanship. We work with local artisans to promote and perpetuate the skills of our regional heritage, particularly wool and knitting.
Materials and their knowledge are at the heart of our creative process. The selection process is based on fabric composition and natural properties.
They come from the sleeping stocks of French Maisons de Couture, originally woven in France, Italy or Japan.
The knitted fabrics are produces in a small Occitan village, by a family business founded in 1921.
This French Living Heritage Company (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label) works with machines that are sometimes almost a hundred years old, where the human hand is indispensable throughout the creation process to ensure exceptional quality.
