VAILLANT

VAILLANT, also known as Vaillant Studio, is a Paris-based womenswear label founded by Alice Vaillant, a former dancer who studied fashion design at Collège LaSalle in Montréal before returning to France. Movement anchors the design language: sculptural corsetry, second-skin jersey, smocking and upcycled Calais lace reinterpret classical ballet codes through deconstruction. Prototypes are developed in-house with a Paris pattern-maker, and production is kept in France and Europe. The label shows on the Paris Fashion Week schedule, with collections listed through Fall/Winter 2026, and retails via SSENSE.
