Paul & Joe epitomizes that special je ne sais quoi that makes French fashion so authentic and timeless. The brainchild of former Azzedine Alaïa designer Sophie Albou, Paul & Joe launched in 1990 as a menswear collection and added women’s clothing in 1995. Named after Albou’s two sons, the label offers everything from women’s dresses and bags to shoes, children’s apparel and cosmetics like its best-selling Alice and Wonderland-themed lipstick collection. From wide-leg pants in sumptuous silk to moisturizing facial masks and men’s button-down shirts, Paul & Joe does it all — and in its own urbane, adventurous style.
