Raoul has signed up Raphael Young for its Pre Fall 2014 collection of shoes and handbags.
This is the first collaboration between Raoul, the in-house brand of the F J Benjamin Group, and Paris-based Raphael Young.
Douglas Benjamin, Chief Operating Officer of F J Benjamin Group and Co- Creative Director of Raoul, said: “We are delighted to be working with Raphael on Raoul’s upcoming range of luxury leather accessories. His designs are bold and glamorous and he totally gets what Raoul is all about.
“Accessories have in recent years become an important and growing part of Raoul’s business. Our decision to sign up Raphael shows our commitment to invest in this business and to offer our customers the ideal choice of accessories to complete the Raoul look or to create individual styles as desired.”

Raphael Young’s collection for Raoul is expected to hit the stores in mid 2014.
Young said: “I look forward to working with Odile and the rest of the Raoul team. Raoul exemplifies the coming of age of the Asian fashion brand. They are confident, forward-looking and totally appreciative of craftsmanship.”
Raoul later branched out to womenswear, accessories and leather goods, which now account for more than half of its sales. Raoul is sold in over 30 countries around the world including stores in Singapore, the Middle East, Paris, Milan, London and New York.
