“Since you enjoy

beautiful

things”

If you love beautiful things, you should discover VIS-A-VIS Paris. It was 1996, and my dance teacher had scribbled the address on a piece of paper slipped into my hand. I was so intrigued I decided to go right after class, it wasn’t too far and I was in the mood to walk.

Nothing prepared me for the shock I was about to experience. In a tiny space, a veritable Ali Baba’s cave with a dizzying accumulation of piles of linen, fabrics with colorful embroidery everywhere, so perfect that I didn’t know where to stop looking. I didn’t want to leave; I’d found my way.

I had

found

my way

After this encounter with VIS-A-VIS, I immediately suggested we work together. We opened our first boutique Village Royal in Paris, a bonbonnière, then an another one Avenue Montaigne, and finally, in 2012, I took over the brand.

While writing this story, I remember my childhood, when my mother would take me with her to the boutiques in Florence or Rome, to buy piles of sheets, tablecloths, towels…It was her passion, it became mine.

OUR OWN EMBROIDERY WORKSHOPS

We have the immense privilege of working with our own embroidery workshops, which are among the finest in the world. For all our collections, our drawings are sent to our workshops to be embroidered, either by hand according to a centuries-old tradition (the work being so fine that it’s often impossible to tell the back from the front); or hand-guided with simpler, geometric motifs, but always with the exceptional quality for which VIS-A-VIS is renowned.

Our choice of fabrics

For our fabrics, we make a meticulous selection from the best weaving mills throughout Europe ; organza, voile, cotton sateen, percale or linen. Our sponges are exclusively woven in France. We never stop searching for the best fabrics to match our embroideries.
