In 1987, Serge Caj nger

left Lille, France to

start a new adventure.

He established the

Paule Ka label in the

Marais area of Paris.

A style code rapidly

emerged: the use of

black and white, which

evolved throughout

the seasons from

monochromatic  ashes

to pastel tones. The

skirt suit, the bow, the

organza and the famous

black dresses have

remained the signature

of Paule Ka for the

past twenty years.

Re ecting glamour from

a Hollywood movie

screen, but always

set against an iconic

Parisian backdrop,

Paule Ka’s style breaks

through conventional

ideas and plays with

contrasts, volume,

symmetry, humor,

and seduction. The

accessory collections

express a timeless mood.

The signature basket,

created in 1995, has

been reinvented each

season.
