Rabih Kayrouz House

What Rabih Kayrouz House does

Maison Rabih Kayrouz is a French haute couture and ready-to-wear fashion house founded by designer Rabih Kayrouz in 1998, registered in Paris as a société à responsabilité limitée (RCS Paris No. 509 443 255). The house operates from a single headquarters at the former Théâtre de Babylone, 38 Boulevard Raspail, 75007 Paris, which combines a retail boutique, atelier, and couture salon, and from a temporary boutique in Beirut's Gemmayze district (332 Rmeil) opened in September 2020 after the August 4 port explosion destroyed the original Palais Dagher location. The brand serves affluent women seeking distinctive, timeless fashion that blends Lebanese heritage with Parisian sophistication, sold exclusively through direct-to-consumer channels — physical boutiques and the global Shopify-powered e-shop — with no wholesale or third-party retail.

The product portfolio spans four streams: ready-to-wear garments (dresses, skirts, coats, jackets, trousers, tops, shirts, and accessories) priced €405–€4,940; the La Mariée bridal collection of handcrafted gowns in French silk chiffon and organza, available by appointment only in Paris and Beirut; bespoke haute couture services through the Paris atelier; and a small accessories and jewelry line. The Spring Summer 26 (SS26) collection is the latest ready-to-wear release. The e-commerce platform is bilingual (French/English), ships globally to France, Europe, USA, Canada, Asia, Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand, with complimentary standard shipping to France/Europe and a €50 international shipping fee for orders under €1,500; payments are processed via Shopify Payments (PCI-DSS compliant, supporting Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay).

The business model is high-touch DTC with one-time unit purchases and appointment-driven couture/bridal commissions. The company is privately held and founder-controlled, with no institutional investors, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no active social media presence detected in the data. Headcount is reported at 11–50 employees. The company is GDPR/CCPA compliant and doesn't expose any public API or developer-facing integration.
