Our Story: Where La Rochelle Meets Elegance
Bonjour from the sunny coast of La Rochelle!
Cexunke was born in 2018 when our founder, Marie, set up a tiny sewing studio above a boulangerie on Rue de l'Hôtel de Ville. Frustrated by mass-produced dresses that sacrificed quality for trends, she began crafting timeless skirts using deadstock fabrics from French mills – each piece stitched to last beyond a single season.
Today, we still work from that same seaside address (pop by for coffee at No. 4!), designing skirts that balance Parisian sophistication with La Rochelle’s effortless coastal charm. Every pleat, hem, and curve is tested by real women on our team – because if it doesn’t make you twirl confidently, it doesn’t leave our atelier.
Why We Do Things Differently
• Slow Fashion, Not Fast Trends:Our small-batch collections use eco-certified European linens and recycled cottons.
• Fit For Real Bodies:Patterns are drafted for 1.7m to 1.75m frames (the average French woman’s height!).
• Repair, Don’t Replace:Free hem adjustments for life – just mail to our La Rochelle workshop.
Find us chatting with customers at Marché Central every Saturday, or reach us at krewegena893@gmail.com. We reply within 24 hours – usually with outfit tips!
