Camille de Dampierre: A Sisterhood of Style
Fashion is often born from passion, but rarely does it emerge from the alchemy of sisterhood. Camille de Dampierre, the Parisian label founded in January 2010 by sisters Laurence and Camille, is an exception—a brand built on shared vision, contrasting strengths, and an unshakable bond.
The story begins with two Parisian women united by blood and creativity. Laurence, the strategic force, handles the brand’s business and growth, while Camille—the artistic soul—pours her imagination into each collection. Their dynamic is the brand’s backbone: "We balance each other. Where I see chaos, Laurence finds order," Camille reflects.
Camille’s design pedigree is formidable: Central Saint Martins in London, Istituto Marangoni in Milan, and Studio Berçot in Paris honed her instinct for bold, precise fashion. Her collections are "never accidental"—every fabric, cut, and stitch is deliberate, transforming garments into wearable art. The result? A label that embodies elegance, energy, timelessness, and eclecticism, crafted for the modern woman who demands both sophistication and spontaneity.
The Camille de Dampierre Woman
She’s a chameleon—part Kate Moss, part futuristic avatar—with legs for days and a mood that shifts with the seasons. "Each collection starts with her," Camille explains. "She might be heartbroken one season, rebellious the next. But she’s always fearless."
Inspirations: From Bowie to the Boulevard
Childhood memories: Nostalgia woven into modern silhouettes.
Travel: A global perspective distilled into Parisian chic.
Street style: The pulse of the city, captured in every seam.
Art: "It’s the oxygen of my creativity."
Her style icons—David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Julian Schnabel—reveal her love for the audacious. "They didn’t follow rules. They rewrote them."
The Parisian Edit
Merci (111 Boulevard Beaumarchais): "Our second office. We’re there so often, they should name a table after us."
Digital Inspirations: Into The Fashion, Stil in Berlin, and Style.com fuel her endless curiosity.
More than clothing, Camille de Dampierre offers a lifestyle—one where a dress isn’t just fabric, but a story. "Fashion should make you feel alive," says Camille. And with every collection, she proves it does.
