About SOEUR

SOEUR was founded in Paris in 2008 by two sisters, Domitille and Angélique Brion — Domitille as creative director, Angélique leading the business. What started as a single store on rue Bonaparte has grown into one of France's most beloved ready-to-wear brands: a timeless Parisian wardrobe designed for women of all generations, built on beautiful materials, effortless silhouettes, and clothes made to last.

Today, SOEUR counts boutiques across France and Europe along with corners in the world's finest department stores. This fall, we're writing our next chapter: our first store in the United States, opening in New York in January 2027.
