2 – Let’s celebrate the Quality of Life at Work Week in our Paris headquarters!

SMCP Global Services & Logistics

At Global Services, Quality of Life at Work initiatives were organized throughout the week to celebrate the return of the teams, to strengthen ties and learn more about each other: starting with a breakfast at the HQ reception, SMCP pastries, “Who is it?” SMCP Quiz, moodboard, team game, gratitude day, and, to cap it all, the “Get Inspired” conference organized for all the Parisian HQ by La School!

Sandro

On the program, a nutritious awakening on Monday, an internal opinion survey on life at headquarters on Tuesday, bee discovery with Benoit the beekeeper on Wednesday, pancake party on Thursday & sports class on Friday and solidarity sale!

Maje

This is the perfect occasion to support the teams’ return on site with several activities based on health and well being

• Yoga course in the Jardin des Tuileries and in Maje Showroom – Namasté
• A conference on nutrition and immunity full of concrete advice to boost our immune system
• Amma massages on chair to release all tensions
• And throughout the week, local and seasonal fruits to recharge batteries!

Claudie Pierlot

Quality of Life at Work Week at Claudie Pierlot was marked by several: team building, awareness workshop on waste sorting and handicap, Yoga course in the Jardin des Tuileries, gourmet break, and results sharing of our internal opinion survey.

How delightful to meet again!

SMCP Global Services puts on the music to celebrate summer!

How to start your day with music by sharing your favorite songs played at the reception throughout the day… and end by singing your best on a karaoke (in the respect of barrier gestures)!

1 – Things are moving again on the Sustainability side in our stores!

For outside temperatures below 17°C (62,6°F) and above 24°C (75,2°F), all our French & European stores will now close their doors to avoid the loss of air conditioning (hot or cold) outside in order to reduce the consumption and carbon footprint of our stores.

We are very excited about this development!

2 – Green Committee Park Cleanup in NYC!

SMCP NA Green Committee & NYC Partnerships for Park have come together to give back to the community and to the environment.

The cleanup took place at Columbus Park in lower Manhattan and planted flowers that will bloom in the coming weeks.

Thank you to those that were able to volunteer.

A holidays atmosphere hovers over the studios of our Brands, swimsuit, embroidered shorts, tennis shoes, sunglasses. No watch, no alarm clock, we just want to get away!

3 – CLAUDIE TAKES ME TO GOA WITH LOVE

TAKE ME TO GOA

Inspired by a one-way ticket to Goa, our capsule takes our imagination off to sea with floral cottons, tinged with twilight purple.

POSTCARD CAPSULE

The itinerary brings to life our desire for somewhere far away, a total change of scenery and maximum positive vibes (under the sun of course).

Our screens open onto this little slice of paradise, and we’ve come up with a wardrobe to suit those holidays we all dream of booking.

THINKING OF ELSEWHERE

The wild flowers printed on the cotton canvas, remind us of an exotic field.

Shades of purple match the rising temperatures.

The Bouti style embroidery adds texture through topstitching in elegant swirls. Each piece is full of volume with the balloon sleeves and XL ruffles ready to catch the fresh breeze, just how we like it.

We’re finally there.

DREAMING OF A DAY IN GOA

First things first: swimwear, so you can take a dip at any time or just sunbathe. Then a long strappy dress to move around freely. From noon to 4 pm, you’ll want a sun hat to go with the SPF 50 (minimum).

For an impromptu dinner, you can mix and match a maxi top with a skirt or mini shorts. In the coolness of the evening, cosy up in a quilted sleeveless gilet to sip that last drink as you look out over the sea.

Buckle up.

Through the window, the land blends into the sky.

Claudie Pierlot takes our minds to Goa.

FROM CLAUDIE WITH LOVE

“Bongo Cha Cha” in the ears, we allow ourselves to dream of elsewhere.

Ah, the Summer, the heat, the ice cream in front of the sea and the light clothes. To fly far away, towards postcard landscapes in which one melts completely.

Direction Ibiza, a blouse with raspberry English lace in the suitcase. The pale-yellow skirt tied at the waist? Perfect for living the dolce vita in Rome. To dance in the lively streets of Havana, Cuba, we bet everything on the white dress fluid.

No wifi, no Insta stories, no problem.

This Summer, Claudie sends her letters, love letters or not, from everywhere. Revitalized?

We are more than ever. Back to school? Not even afraid.

IMMINENT TAKEOFF here!

“French Riviera” Capsule

Step No.4: The Côte d’Azur reserves a special kind of beauty for the gaze of an American camera. Fursac’s latest collection pays homage to the iconic film “Bonjour Tristesse” (1958) by exploring a vivid and typically French palette and an American-inspired style.

Discover the capsule collection here.
