Meet the House

The people behind Chauvet Couture, in print, online and wherever there is something worth looking at, wearing, collecting or arguing about. Chauvet Couture is a British maison devoted to the art of wardrobe curation, editorial publishing, and the preservation of cultural style. Vintage is the House's specialism, but our interests are considerably wider: fashion, art, architecture, motoring, gardens, society, travel, collecting and the peculiar pleasures of British life. The House is made up of editors, writers, contributors and characters, each with their own particular territory and point of view.

Our standard

We check facts where facts matter. We credit our sources and photographers wherever possible. We correct genuine errors when they are brought to our attention.

Most importantly, we remain curious.

Chauvet Couture is a young publication, but our interests are not new. We draw upon the accumulated knowledge of fashion, art, architecture, collecting, craftsmanship and British cultural life — while looking at them from the present rather than pretending that the past was perfect.

We are here to preserve what deserves preserving, question what deserves questioning and discover what deserves discovering.
