About Me
The story behind Mademoiselle C

Mademoiselle C
Fashion Historian • Sorbonne • London College of Fashion
I'm a trained fashion historian with a degree in Art History from the Sorbonne and specialised Fashion History studies from the prestigious London College of Fashion.
My love for fashion history began early and has only deepened over the years. What started as a fascination with the stories behind the clothes became a lifelong pursuit — through research, travel, and countless hours spent in archives uncovering the untold narratives of the great couture houses.
Over the years, I've dedicated myself to uncovering the hidden stories woven into the fabric of Paris — the ateliers, the facades, the streets where the greatest names in couture built their legacies. Guiding guests through these landmarks isn't just what I do — it's my deepest passion.
My personal archive of vintage fashion pieces, combined with years of academic research and an intimate knowledge of the city, allows me to offer something you won't find in any guidebook: accurate, insider insight into Paris's extraordinary fashion culture — told through the stories of the people, the rivalries, and the moments that changed everything.
Every tour is a chance to see Paris through entirely new eyes. I can't wait to share these stories with you.
