In 1958, Daniel Tribouillard founded the fashion house known as "Léonard" alongside his wife and daughters. Specializing in haute couture, Tribouillard introduced innovative textile techniques that were later patented. By 1960, "Léonard" had made a splash in the industry with a collection of printed sweaters, quickly garnering recognition worldwide. This success led to the introduction of printed silk jerseys in 1968 and the opening of the brand's first boutique in 1970. The distinctive fabric prints featuring intricate patterns and motifs became a hallmark of "Léonard." Expanding beyond the French borders in the early 1970s, "Léonard" ventured into international markets, offering a wider range of clothing including pants, jackets, and tops alongside their signature dresses. The brand also diversified into accessories such as scarves, hats, jewelry, belts, leather goods, brooches, as well as fragrances for both women and men. Known for its vibrant prints and lightweight fabrics, "Léonard" has gained significant popularity, particularly in Japan. Daniel Tribouillard, the mastermind behind the label, has continued to innovate textile processes, earning numerous patents along the way. Notably, "Léonard" has been a proud member of the prestigious French Federation of Couture Fashion since 1994.
