I started MaisonCléo firstly for myself...

...because I couldn't find any handmade-to-order brands in France, made with surplus fabrics, or they were too expensive. I was looking for pieces made in a more artisanal way than pieces made in factories, so I decided to buy deadstock fabrics and asked my mother to make my clothes. Then people started to become interested in buying the pieces she was making for me - that's how it all started!
