About Alexandre Vauthier
Passionate about cut and devoted to the search for new fabrics,
Alexandre Vauthier learned the secrets of haute couture working alongside
Thierry Mugler and Jean Paul Gaultier. In 2009, he decided on a whim to launch his own brand to express his own need for independence and his respect for the craftsmanship discovered throughout his career. Since 2014, the House has been the 14th member of the Chambre syndicale de la Haute-Couture and is now showing in the official calendar of this unique Fashion Week.
The fundamentals of his style include innovative fabrics and techniques showcasing the very best of couture and an innate sense of fit. Alexandre Vauthier's dresses showcase the female body - and all women. The couturier-designer's passion and flair have attracted icons as unique and varied as Madonna, Roisin Murphy, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Gwen Stefani, and Alessandra Ambrosio; celebrated actresses including Kate Bosworth, Emma Roberts, Fanny Ardant, Isabelle Huppert, Sofia Loren, Noomi Rapace, Sylvie Testud, and Juliette Binoche, artists such as Kesh and it-girls like Poppy Delevigne.
Alexandre Vauthier is carried in 150 retailers worldwide.
