Paul and Joe sunglasses

The Paul and Joe brand was created by the talented Sophie Albou - Méchaly, a designer born in Paris. While her parents founded the shirt brand Le Garage in the 80s, the young girl, aged just 13, attended school. After her baccalaureate, she studied management at the Sorbonne, then at the Institut Français de la Mode (IFM). Sophie Méchaly began her professional career in 1983 working with the great Franco-Tunisian stylist and couturier Azzedine Alaïa, then working with her parents, but soon wishing to create her own brand.

Sophie Méchaly took the plunge and founded her company under the names of her two sons: Paul and Joe. Wishing to stand out from the current trend for darker colors, she offers her customers colorful, fun, dynamic and youthful fashion. Sophie Méchaly has since created a second brand, Paul and Joe Sister. The latter is aimed at young girls who want a casual-chic look. In 2009, the designer entered the world of eyewear. Today, all Paul and Joe products are sold and recognized all over the world in various boutiques and points of sale.
