Premium Fragrance House
Lucien Lelong, a renowned fashion designer and the founder of a perfume brand, had a distinctive career marked by his unique approach to textiles and business acumen. Born in 1889 into a family with a fashion background, he took over his father's business after World War I and transformed it with his own creative vision. His personal style was known for its classical elegance and impeccable craftsmanship using the finest fabrics, a trait that influenced iconic designers such as Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain, who worked under Lelong's mentorship. Lelong's innovative spirit led him to launch the first collection of ready-to-wear clothing in 1933, recognizing the need for a more profitable business model beyond haute couture. In 1924, he also ventured into the world of perfumery, creating uniquely named fragrances that were later housed in exquisite flacons designed by renowned artists like René Lalique. During World War II, Lelong played a crucial role as president of the 'Chambre Syndicale de la Couture', protecting the Parisian fashion industry from being relocated to Berlin by the occupying forces and ensuring the safety of thousands of fashion industry workers from forced labor in Germany. This effort allowed Paris to remain a hub of high fashion even during the war years, preserving its reputation as a center of creativity and innovation. Despite facing health challenges, Lelong continued to make a significant impact in the industry until he closed his fashion house in 1948. His fragrances, however, remain a testament to his legacy and are still produced today. In May 1958, Lucien Lelong passed away in his beloved city of Paris, leaving behind a lasting influence on the world of fashion and perfumery.
