“You should be true to yourself in the clothes you wear“
In the last two decades, French-born fashion designer Nicole Farhi has emerged as one of the leading designer names in the United Kingdom. A unique blend of easy, but functional tailoring with luxurious, desirables separates and accessories has created a loyal following for her across with many of the fashion elites of the UK, US, and Japan, and increasingly throughout the world.
Nicole’s career began in Paris where she worked as a freelance fashion designer, but before long she moved to London in the 1970′s where she worked with the likes Stephen Marks, owner of the then-little-known label French Connection.
In 1983 Marks funded the launch of the Nicole Farhi label, and in doing so gave Nicole the opportunity to design a collection different from French Connection; one more in tune with her own personal philosophy, clothes that she herself really wanted to wear.
It did not take long for her aesthetic to stimulate demand for the label. Five years later she expanded the collection with a diffusion line for women – Farhi. A collection of sporty, easy pieces, Farhi provided the solution for every working woman’s weekend wardrobe.
The Nicole Farhi brand has continued to grow with the introduction of swimwear, shoes, accessories, evening wear, and even restaurants in London and New York.
