In 1945, Céline Vipiana (1915-1997) and her husband, Richard, created one of the first luxury brands in the industry, Céline, a made-to-measure children’s shoe business, and opened a first boutique at 52 rue Malte in Paris. The brand was recognised by its logo, the red elephant created by Raymont Peynet.
Celine was originally found in 1945 by Céline Vipiana and her husband. The original concept was a made-to-measure children’s shoe boutique. The brand has come a long way since then. In these days the Celine logo was a distinct red elephant logo. The brand soon expanded to ready-to-wear apparel for the everyday woman which included wool suits, leather vests, fitted professional shirts, and pastel denim.
In the 60s, Celine launched a shoe line and ventured into the luxury perfume industry. Soon after, leather accessories were added to the selection including belts, bags, and gloves. Since those days, Celine has gone international opening boutiques in cities like Beverly Hills and Hong Kong.
Appointed in 1997, Michael Kors revolutionized the brand with groundbreaking designs when he was lead designer. Kors brought about ingenious sportswear luxury designs and other jet-setter designs.
Celine has been a brand of the ages. Celine designs are of the utmost luxury and every working woman should have a Celine bag in their wardrobe.
It is a French ready-to-wear and leather luxury goods brand that has been owned by LVMH group since 1996.
