Nicole Farhi started her career as a freelance designer in Paris before settling in London in the 1970s, eventually joining the design team at French Connection in 1978. In 1982, she launched her own label under the French Connection umbrella and came to be known for her elegant, unstructured designs for women and men. Since its inception, the Nicole Farhi brand has grown to include shoes, accessories, home décor, and even restaurants.
"Elegance is about forgetting what you are wearing, because you are comfortable both in your clothes and in your own skin."
