class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">More than a fashion brand, Maison Julien Fourni\u00e9 is a luxury experience that transcends trends and seasons. With a commitment to excellence and innovation, Julien Fourni\u00e9 continues to redefine the world of ultra-luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Julien Fourni\u00e9 was founded in 2009.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">The history of the house is reflected in its collections, which are presented in Paris every January and July during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhcm.paris\/en\/house\/julien-fournie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Haute Couture Week.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">For his first collection, the young couturier was awarded the Grand Prize for Creativity by the City of Paris in January 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">For his fourth collection, in January 2011, Julien Fourni\u00e9 became a &#8220;guest member&#8221; of the official calendar of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture catwalk shows. This was the first step towards recognizing Julien Fourni\u00e9 as a promising new brand in the circle of the great couturiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">In January 2017, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/julien-fournie-haute-couture-house\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"10811\">Julien Fourni\u00e9 house <\/a>was officially classified as &#8220;Haute Couture&#8221;. This label, protected by the French Ministry of Industry, is awarded to a few houses (only ten prestigious Haute Couture houses are currently on this list) that combine the best creativity in design and the highest quality in garment making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Since its inception, Julien Fourni\u00e9 has also had the honor of being invited to show its collections at prestigious events abroad, in order to bring the couturier&#8217;s style to luxury clients from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">In March 2023, a Julien Fourni\u00e9 dress, worn by the actress <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/under-the-skirts-of-audrey-fleurot\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7515\">Audrey Fleurot<\/a>, entered the Gr\u00e9vin Museum in Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">In April 2023, the first retrospective of Julien Fourni\u00e9&#8217;s work will be held at SCAD Lacoste in an exhibition entitled &#8220;Haute Couture un point c&#8217;est tout&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">While respecting tradition, Julien Fourni\u00e9 has also forged new partnerships with high-tech giants such as Apple and Tencent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Julien Fourni\u00e9 has thus been able to digitize the creation, design and personalization of his haute couture pieces. He is one of the few haute couture designers to master the new digital tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Long regarded as a survivor of a bygone era, the haute couture market has experienced a new boom in recent years. Thanks to new technologies, Julien Fourni\u00e9 has been able to establish direct and unique means of communication with his clients. It is no longer a question of sending a sketch to the client for approval, as was the case in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Julien Fourni\u00e9 has introduced a new process in which clients are no longer mere spectators of the creative process. They have become actors in the unique experience of creating a garment wherever they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:12px\">Since December 2020, Julien Fourni\u00e9 has been developing a line of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/boutique-shop-luxury-bags\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"7484\">luxury bags<\/a> and accessories. Initially, the idea was to offer handbags that could be seen in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/tag\/fashion-show\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"45\">Julien Fourni\u00e9 shows <\/a>and were previously reserved for haute couture customers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-content-justification-center is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-81aa85af wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:calc( 0.5 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)));padding-right:var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal));padding-bottom:calc( 0.5 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)));padding-left:var(--wp--style--root--padding-left, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal))\">\n<div style=\"height:calc( 0.25 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)))\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:calc( 0.25 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)))\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\">Handbags, tote bags, and clutches created by Julien Fourni\u00e9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/shop-luxury-bags-and-luxury-accessories\/\">\u2192 See<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.julienfournie.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/04\/Vitrine-010426.1-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"luxury bags\" class=\"wp-image-20634 size-full\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-content-justification-center is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-81aa85af wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:calc( 0.5 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)));padding-right:var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal));padding-bottom:calc( 0.5 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)));padding-left:var(--wp--style--root--padding-left, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal))\">\n<div style=\"height:calc( 0.25 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)))\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:calc( 0.25 * var(--wp--style--root--padding-right, var(--wp--custom--gap--horizontal)))\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3\" style=\"font-size:0px\">fashion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4\" style=\"font-size:0px\">fashion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5\" style=\"font-size:0px\">fashion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6\" style=\"font-size:0px\">fashion<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThere\u2019s No Fashion Without Freedom\u201d: An Exclusive Interview with Julien Fourni\u00e9 Julien Fourni\u00e9&nbsp;@julienfournie&nbsp;is much more than a fashion designer.
