List of Charvet customers explained

See main article: Charvet Place Vendôme. Charvet Place Vendôme or simply Charvet is a French high-end bespoke and ready-to-wear shirtmaker, located at 28 Place Vendôme in Paris.Its list of customers is notable[1] for its time span, Charvet existing since 1838 and having been the first shirt store ever,[2] and as a paradigm of an international[3] "aristo-dandy crossover community".[4] In the 19th century, the shirtmaker both specialized in "royal haberdashery"[5] and attracted the patronage of artists. In the 20th century, with the development of fashion design, designers and fashion journalists became a significant customer group. Some other customers' interest in the brand has become a notable aspect of their personality. In keeping[6] with a tradition of discretion of French couture houses, the company declines to comment on its customers list, as a service to its customers.[7]
