Elliot started Trouvé in 2015, sourcing and selling antique clothing from France.

The ethos of French workers of repairing rather than replacing clothing resonates with us. Some of the items you find here are close to 100 years old and it is amazing to see the history they carry with them. The patchwork and repairs you will find demonstrate this and to ensure our items live for another 100 years we have added some of our own patchwork where necessary!
