Révillon

Revillon as it is today began in 1839 when Louis-Victor Revillon bought a leather company established in 1723 by M. François Givelet situated in Paris at 159, Rue St. Honoré. Branches were opened in London in 1869 and in New York in 1878. At the end of the 19th century, Revillon had stores in Paris, London, New York, and Montreal.

With the company under his direction, Louis-Victor Revillon epitomized his own motto that: “elegance needs the most precious fabrics and furs”. The story of Revillon is that of an endless quest for furs, leather, silk and cashmere of the highest standard sourced from around the world and brought to Paris to be crafted into their signature coats.
