Due to the war-like urban feeling of the clothes, the company gained popularity in the suburban and urban communities of the United States, but in my opinion, it is still not as well known as it should be throughout the entire nation considering how spectacular the designs are and how well crafted each piece is.
Although they are mostly specialized in casual clothing, for the most part jeans, their look is so unique and raw that the brand has become iconic, and even infamous after a notorious campaign ad featuring pictures of Jesus' last supper where the apostles had been replaced by women. These ad's were banned in France and Italy because of how controversial they were considered to be.
Although I have not yet seen much designs by Marithé François Girbaud in stores around the Midwest, where I am currently residing, I have found many of their fabulous designs for sale on websites such as farfetch.com-one of my favorite international shopping websites!
If you like these outfits below as much as I do, I strongly suggest checking out more designs on the site, and while you're there, explore the most unbelievable collection of designers and boutiques from all over the world as well!
