Did you know?
- The brand Jacquemus is known for its 'Le Chiquito' bag, which pushed the concept of a handbag to a miniature extreme. The name chiquito is actually Spanish for 'tiny' rather than French, reflecting the Mediterranean influence of the designer.
- In French fashion discourse, the brand's aesthetic is often described as solaire, meaning 'solar' or 'sunny'. This term is used to describe the specific light and warmth of the Provence region that the name Jacquemus evokes.
- The surname 'Jacquemus' has ancient Provencal roots, which reflects the Southern French heritage that the designer often incorporates into his brand's aesthetic.
