Catherine Malandrino, A French Woman in America. Catherine Malandrino arrived on the fashion scene with the idea of blending the romance and elegance of Paris with the energy of Manhattan. As a French designer in New York, Catherine has a universal appeal.

In 1998 she met Bernard Aidan, her partner of love and life and followed her heart to New York City. She began her love story with America when she presented the iconic “Flag” collection in 2001.

renowned New York City landmark The Apollo Theater in Harlem. In 2002, cult sensation “Sex
and the City” featured Catherine’s Soho boutique.

clothes are a means for women to unveil their individuality.
