EpithuxikHarmonie was founded in March 2015 in Paris by Maxime Ephritikhine, a French born and raised Fashion Designer & Stylist based between London and Paris.

Since day one this label has been focused on gender inclusivity and individual expression. It was essential that people from all genre and backgrounds would feel comfortable to embrace the aesthetic envisioned by EpithuxikHarmonie for its clients. We believe people should have fun dressing up and we hope women, men and non-gender conforming people from all around the world will find pleasure and pride in wearing our design.

While being inclusive has always a priority for EpithuxikHarmonie, it was also imperative that we had to always keep in mind the impact our brand would have on our planet. Therefore we decided very early on to mainly source our raw materials within Europe. We are very proud to work with dead-stocks as well as vintage and or repurposed materials, in order to infuse our products with a touch of History and picturesque. We design and produce every single item in our London based Atelier, this allows us to have a closer look during the production process of each piece, while also reducing our overall carbon footprint.  

When this label was created in 2015 we decided to source most of our leathers from dead-stock located in Paris. Having some prominent Luxury Houses located in the French capital meant that their dead-stock were of the finest quality. Although these dead-stock leather did not make the cut in those prestigious houses, we still believed their quality was one of their greatest aspects. Plus this process forced us to envision a different way of designing clothes and accessories, starting from the existing material meant that we had to work around its peculiarities, in order to create one of a kind items, with a unique look.

Because we only work with the best materials in small quantities in order to reduce any type of waist, our products are usually available in smaller quantities. We are very proud to design and produce our accessories with the greatest care when crafting them, this is why you might expect a little longer delivery window when ordering our items (they usually dispatch between one to four weeks). This being said, we believe that having to wait a little longer for a high-quality unique fashion item you truly desire will only make the pleasure of receiving it greater !

♥ We look forward to seing you in EpithuxikHarmonie ♡
