Biography
After spending her childhood in Morocco and a short stay at the Lycée Chateaubriand in Rome (Chateaubriand High School in Rome), the young Martine Sitbon returned to Paris in the early 1960s ...
as its founding designer. Rue du Mail collections are sold both internationally and in the headquarter's boutique. In September 2013, the brand suspended all operations.
Rue du Mail hosted its first fashion show during DJ at the
Couvent des Cordeliers in 2007. Collaborations with Linda Farrow and
Malcolm McLaren followed, and in 2009, the brand presented its fifth collection in the Rue du Mail atelier space. Rue du Mail launched its diffusion line, rdm, in October 2011.
Sitbon's vision for the brand was "roughness with richness" and "poetic feminine sensibility with uniquely urban sharpness".
In September 2013, Rue du Mail suspended operations "for a period of reflection", leading to the last catwalk collection by the label never arriving in stores.
