At the age of 19 he founded his label Jacquemus
He doesn’t want to withhold from his fans that Simon hasn’t always been so successful. Because with his story he encourages other people who may have been in the same situation as he 12 years ago. At the age of 19 the designer founded his label Jacquemus. Since he had neither the means nor the right contacts, he quickly converted his apartment into a showroom. He recently showed what it looked like on Instagram.

Simon’s important message to his fans
The 31-year-old writes about his emotional post: “Bonsoir, I wanted to share a positive and important message tonight. This is where I started my brand, in my small apartment in the 18th district of Paris. I used this as a window to present my design. ”Today, 12 years later, the designer can afford several luxurious showrooms, which he proudly presents on Instagram. Simon sells his fashion alongside luxury brands such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Dior at KaDeWe in Berlin. The French proves that anything in life is possible and one should never give up.

Jacquemus is known for its simplicity
Today the French designer is celebrating incredible success. Above all, its unusual bag design stands out from other high fashion brands. His collections are minimalist and simple, but that wasn’t always his plan, as he says in an interview with “Ssense”. “When I started my brand, minimalism was more of a necessity than a well-thought-out concept.”

He never went to a fashion school
The lack of money led the 31-year-old to keep his designs as simple and minimalistic as possible. He still sticks to it today and inspires millions of people with it. Incidentally, he learned his current expertise and the right feeling for fashion at the Paris label Comme des Garmanyns. Simon worked there for some time, as he himself said in an interview: “I never went to fashion university, but I went to the Comme des Garmanyns store in Paris worked to finance my label. In a way, this was my school. I learned a lot there about clothing and self-confidence. “
