French Connection

Description:

French Connection is a design led British brand, creating distinctive products across womenswear, menswear, accessories and home for the modern lifestyle. The brand distributes globally through retail stores, e-commerce, wholesale and licensing channels and is committed to offering a premium experience, ensuring the customer is at the heart of the business.
Since its creation in 1972, French Connection has enthused a passion for design and continues to deliver timeless affordable quality. Innovation remains at the core of the brand and all designs are created and developed from the head office in Camden, London.
French Connection encourages a dynamic company culture. Employees work collaboratively and proudly represent the brand. The bold personality of French Connection continues to push boundaries globally, through impactful advertising campaigns and by supporting emerging talent.

Founded in 1972 by Stephen Marks, French Connection set out to create well-designed fashionable clothing that appealed to a broad market.

The abbreviation FCUK was born after Trevor Beattie visited the French Connection offices and noticed the abbreviation FCHK on an internal memo, standing for French Connection Hong Kong. From this, Beattie suggested the brand use FCUK, standing for French Connection United Kingdom.

In the spring of ’97 a controversial ad campaign featuring the simple line ‘fcuk fashion’ hit the headlines becoming a universally recognised great fashion moment. Having established a strong core clothing business through unique design and a true sense of style, the company expanded its portfolio into new and exciting areas including men’s and women’s toiletries, sunglasses and opticals, watches, footwear and a growing range of furniture and home accessories.
