Founded by Lucas Leclère and Kika Cordes, CHRISTÈRE pays tribute to new beginnings, second lives, and the collaborative alchemy of craftsmanship.

The brand lands between a Parisian atelier and a contemporary art opening - a French consommé of creativity, where sharp tailoring meets hand-painted irreverence. The lovechild of prêt-à-porter and art-de-vivre. It is art-de-porter: living, everyday art that moves with you, from the boudoir, to the boardroom, to the opera, the club,  the bar. 

From one season to the next, CHRISTÈRE builds a concise vestiaire for the cultured cosmopolitan who refuses to choose between polish and passion. With tailoring at its core, it combines Italian savoir-faire with Parisian wit and a touch of artistic irreverence to produce exceptional garments, fit for extraordinary lives.

Each piece is infused with intention, designed for a body in motion - because clothing has no rules, only opportunities.
