Our Philosophy
How We Work
At Les Collages, quality and distinction aren't goals—they are our creed. We cultivate every relationship as a couture collaboration, until you can't tell where your house ends and our atelier begins. There is no gap, only a seamless fusion of vision, dialogue, and craft.
Exclusivity as standard
From the first meeting, we forge a bespoke process no other house can claim. We don't merely supply tweeds; we co-design concepts, shaping an exclusive design package that is uniquely yours. Every sample created for your maison exists only for you—seen, touched, and defined by your house alone.
A tailored partnership
Our philosophy is intimate and exacting. We work with your creative textile director or designer as you decide your next collection concept. We build research and concepts around your show, your story, your voice—empowering you to communicate with unparalleled clarity through your garments, your collection, your maison, and your consumers.
Process, refined
Sampling: You review the proposed selections for your upcoming collection. When you choose, we begin yarn production and craft the sample order in our atelier—handcrafted for your samples and press looks.
Production: After your buying session, we transition to production orders with a schedule that respects your show timeline and delivery needs. Each tweed meets its own technical cadence, and we ardently strive to deliver within the agreed window.
Exclusivity criteria: Our process includes specific requirements to preserve exclusivity for your maison—from sample to production orders, ensuring your tweed remains singular to your house.
Terms and transparency
We outline our terms in detail at the outset of every relationship, because clarity is the foundation of trust. Our aim is to protect the integrity of your vision at every stage.
Craft, care, and consequence
Les Collages is rooted in mutual regard and a shared ambition: to elevate design through a hands-on, made-to-order ethos. We honor a reverent, collaborative dynamic—where your point person is woven into ours, and you're welcomed into a family of artisans who respect your pace, your standards, and your story.
Sustainability and traceability
We champion full traceability—from raw material to finished tweed. We partner with suppliers who can verify every link in the chain, and we test samples rigorously to ensure every fabric meets your maison's exacting requirements.
Fiber philosophy
We source natural fibers from Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Korea, and South Africa, and, when possible, recycled or approved synthetic fibers. This ensures our textiles can carry certifications such as RWS, RMS, and GOTS, without compromising exquisite touch or resilience.
Close the loop
Made to order, handmade with intention, and designed to be part of your house's enduring narrative. Les Collages isn't just a manufacturer—it's a partner in crafting a lasting, responsible, and utterly exclusive couture story. If you're ready to explore a collaboration that feels like couture alchemy, let us guide you toward the next collection that will redefine your signature.
