Chandon Careers

Founded in 1945 by Pierre Balmain, Balmain emerged as a leading brand in the French fashion industry with its elegant and sophisticated designs. Known for its mastery of tailored lines and high-quality fabrics, Balmain's distinctive style resonated with an audience seeking a blend of modern aesthetics with classical French elements. Pierre Balmain, often referred to as a 'king of French fashion', was lauded for his charismatic personality and innate sense of style which was reflected in his designs. His fashion house became synonymous with star-studded glamour, dressing icons such as Ava Gardner, Marlene Dietrich, and Katharine Hepburn.

Following Pierre Balmain's death in 1982, the fashion house continued to uphold its prestigious reputation under the creative direction of several renowned designers. Erik Mortensen, Balmain's personal and professional partner, took over the reins initially and maintained the brand's emphasis on elegance and meticulous tailoring. Over the years, Balmain experienced a series of transitions, from Oscar de la Renta's stint as the head designer in the 90s to Christophe Decarnin's edgier and glam rock influenced style in the early 2000s.

In 2011, Olivier Rousteing assumed the role of creative director, infusing the brand with a fresh, youthful spirit while honoring its rich heritage. His visionary approach has ushered Balmain into a new era, combining traditional couture techniques with a modern sensibility that resonates with a younger demographic. Under Rousteing's leadership, Balmain has successfully expanded its global presence and continues to be a dynamic force in the world of high fashion. Today, Balmain remains at the forefront of luxury fashion, celebrated for its timeless elegance, craftsmanship, and innovative design.

More than sixty years ago, Robert Jean de Vogüé, at the time President of Moët & Chandon, and a handful of other exceptional individuals had the vision, courage and drive to redefine luxury sparkling wine.

They realized that there was a way to make it modern; and that was to take it far, far from home, exporting their centuries old know how, not the bottles. What they created was a thrilling paradox: a heritage brand with dynamism in its DNA. CHANDON.

Now spanning four continents, we have wineries in Argentina, California, Brazil, Australia, China and India, making ours the largest sparkling vineyard worldwide and the only domain on which the sun never sets.

Drawing on a collaborative network of sixteen winemakers of seven different nationalities, we stand for new terroirs, innovative methods and an ever-curious outlook that happily unites our diverse lands and people. CHANDON opens up a world of possibilities.

JAMES PERSE was founded over 20 years ago in Los Angeles, California by its eponymous designer. James’ signature design philosophy and aesthetic – the pairing of elegance and sophistication with simplicity and comfort – is borne from his passion for minimalist architecture and (as a Los Angeles native) his intimate familiarity with west coast indoor / outdoor living and the casual clothing inspired by it. This approach has been applied to each step in developing the JAMES PERSE brand, which has become synonymous with Southern California life and style.

At the Company’s inception, James’ mission was to bring an elevated look and feel to unique baseball caps and basic tees. Two decades later, the Company has expanded to producing full lines of its famously soft and meticulously constructed modern classics for men and women, as well as home furnishings, accessories, and limited edition goods. Our collections are sold in over 40 JAMES PERSE boutiques, as well as in fine department and specialty stores around the world
