Boulevard Honoret

Hidden within Marseille’s vibrant tapestry lies Boulevard Honoret. It’s more than just a street. It’s a thread woven into the city’s rich fabric. Our story begins not on the boulevard itself, but in a bustling workshop just a stone’s throw away on Rue Sainte. The year is 1980. Annick Lestrohan, a mother of five, felt a powerful urge to create. To honor her family, her “tribe,” she launched a clothing line for children and women. This marked the birth of Honoré, a brand destined to evolve beyond mere fashion. Boulevard Honoret, though not directly involved in Honoré’s origins, stands as a silent witness to the brand’s growth and transformation. Over time, Honoré shifted its focus from clothing to home décor. In the 2000s, Annick’s daughter Ingrid, inspired by architecture, joined the family business. Together, this mother-daughter duo began crafting sophisticated and timeless pieces, drawing inspiration from both sides of the Mediterranean. Today, Honoré’s creations can be found across the globe, from Byron Bay to Dubai. At 121 Rue Sainte, not far from Boulevard Honoret, lies the Marseille boutique. You might even catch Ingrid there, immersed in her creative process. Boulevard Honoret, in its quiet way, echoes the spirit of Honoré. It represents the journey from a family’s creative spark to a globally recognized brand. Each piece crafted by Honoré, much like the boulevard itself, tells a story. A story of family, of artistry, and of the enduring allure of the Mediterranean.
