Since its merger with the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture, the Institut Français de la Mode has given new impetus to technical training courses that combine French savoir-faire with modern technology.

In the heart of Paris for over a century, Atelier Boivin has perpetuated a unique savoir-faire in garment making for silk accessories, from ties and ascots to bow ties and scarves. Nestled on rue Réaumur, this historic workshop stands out for its meticulous workmanship, for demanding high-end and luxury customers.

In the heart of the Vendée region, Bleu Océane, founded in 1973 by the Dugas couple, has become a benchmark for denim garment making in France. The company, taken over in 2020 by Rodolphe Bled, combines traditional savoir-faire with innovative technologies to respond to changes in the sector and reduce its environmental impact.

A handful of pioneers believe in the viability of a complete French linen industry, from spinning to garment making. A virtuous adventure for the planet and employment, but with many challenges!

In the heart of La Chartre-sur-le-Loir, the Marck & Balsan Group's trimmings workshop preserves a unique artisanal savoir-faire. It is a benchmark in the production of braided trims and military ornaments. Under the direction of Laurent Marck, the Group's Managing Director, the workshop perpetuates ancestral techniques, respecting tradition and excellence.

The Académie Internationale de Coupe de Paris benefits from the aura of manual professions and the industry's growing need for model makers, linked to relocation.
