Fashion aficionados can now get their hands on this stunning piece as it’s available in MFVD city stores globally and online at the MARIE FRANCE VAN DAMME Online Store.

Van Damme, whose brand inception in 2011, merges European subtlety with vibrant Asian elegance, delivering collections that are a delightful blend of sophistication and edge. Historically rooted in silk caftans and evergreen resort wear, Marie’s designs have magnetized a clientele that reads like the “Who’s Who” of Hollywood – from Rosie Huntington Whiteley and Angelina Jolie to Katy Perry, Eva Longoria, Olivia Palermo, and of, course, the Queen B herself.

But the crescendo doesn’t stop there for Marie. In a thrilling revelation, the designer is poised to unveil a Pied à terre Parisien on the esteemed Rue de Rivoli in Paris. This private salon, which promises exclusivity and luxury, is nestled just a few steps from fashion giants Dior and YSL. Jacques Garcia, the mastermind behind the famed Hotel Costes, has artistically revived the historic venue. Fashion enthusiasts, mark your calendars! The grand unveiling is set for September 2023, perfectly aligning with the Paris Fashion Week.

Across the Atlantic, Van Damme’s footprint is evident, with flagship outlets at prime locations like The Peninsula Beverly Hills in Los Angeles, Bal Harbour Shops in Miami, IFC in Hong Kong, The Dubai Mall, and Singapore’s Takashimaya, to name a few.

Indeed, this fusion of music and fashion, Beyoncé and Marie France Van Damme, underscores a renaissance in entertainment and design. A symphony that promises to resonate for years to come.
