Women have changed a lot since 1983, the year when the 123 brand was born.
They are ever more liberated, self-assured, confident, and year after year, they are inventing femininity in their own way. The clothes they wear have also changed to suit them. From the three essential pieces for the first professionals, the modern women's wardrobe has become more casual and better suited to the lives they lead.

That's why, in 2019, 1.2.3 is becoming Maison Cent Vingt-Trois.

A new momentum so we can be ever-closer to the spirit of the women we dress. A new name representing a renewed promise of authenticity, well-being and trust. A new ethical and ecological ambition to ensure that respect for the planet extends as far as our wardobes.  The thing that will never change? Our love for casual elegance, for women and for the necessity for impeccable cuts.

Maison 123 takes the initiative

Maison 123 aims to transform the brand into a desirable high value-added maison, designed as a natural evolution of the brand with more modernity and quality at its core. The aim is to meet the expectations of style, ethics and personalization of the 21st century.
Maison 123 is taking a turn in its collections by committing to develop more product smade from organic farming, recycled materials and made in France.
