Where French meets British - The Kooples  



The Kooples is the return of street chic, a Paris-London mindset, a musical inclination, fashion as a manifest, and a cloakroom for two. For five minutes or the last fifteen years, for one night, for some time, it is a way of life, a game.


Inspired by music, the brand choses beautiful couples each season to model their clothes for their campaign and look book. The brand boasts of offering clothing particularly androgynous and mixed, ranging both men and women, at least that coordinate perfectly between man and woman, playing on an aesthetic symbiosis between the couple. 

The line focuses on perfectly tailored clothes with a rock vibe. Most of the buttons, embroidery or jewelry feature the signature skull logo, which give classic blazers and military coats a bit of an edge.
