The Wall 1 year, 6 months agoWhen history, art, and the legacy of 170 years of know-how come together around the revival of this historic store of the Rougier & Plรฉ chains / this flagship store facing the famous winter circus which in its time hosted “the trophies of color” created by a certain Thierry Collot ๐ achieves some 200Ke with our brands on the more than 2 million โฌ made by RPG. Daniel Buren, Lefranc prize winner in 1965 and well known for his columns on the forecourt of the Louvre, created the facade acting on the revival of the chain by its extension across France (30 stores)ย while preserving its historical roots.

The Wall 1 year, 6 months agoHi Everyone,
We have had our first sighting of LB Flashe at one of the Michaels Test Stores…WoodBury NY location. Thank you Jennifer Torres for visiting this store and snapping the pics! You may notice the same POS graphics in the pic Steve Chamberlain posted 2 weeks ago with me packing them up to ship. We are very excited to see how the Michaels customers take to the range. Looking forward to a successful test and the opportunity to add to more stores in 2025!
Thanks to all that have helped to make this happen.

Thank you for the photo Jen @jennifer-torrescolart-com, and well done again all involved, especially you Tim. It is so good to see the header above and the branding and hand painted elements on the shelf….and the info on the power wing side blade too! We hope the Michaels’ consumer loves LB Flashe as much as we do, and if all 50 test stores execute this well, then we are in with a chance….

Looking really nice Tim. I can even see some colours are already sold out ๐
Joking aside, I think this really does look different vs our competition and I love the information board at the middle of the display. Well done to all for making this happen!…

Millions of tonnes of clothing, shoes and other textiles end up in landfill every year because very little is sent for recycling .
“The current fashion system uses high volumes of non-renewable resources, including petroleum, extracted to produce clothes that are often used only for a short period of time, after which the materials are largely lost to landfill or incineration. “This system puts pressure on valuable resources such as water, pollutes the environment and degrades ecosystems in addition to creating societal impacts on a global scale.” There are good reasons to seek out alternatives to chucking clothes in the bin – globally the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions, with textile production alone is estimated to release 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere every year. Vast amounts of water are also needed to produce the clothes we wear too and the fashion industry is responsible for 20% of global waste water. At the same time we are buying more clothes than ever – the average consumer now buys 60% more clothing than they did 15 years ago. More than two tonnes of clothing are bought each minute in the UK, more than any other country in Europe. Globally, around 56 million tonnes of clothing are bought each year, and this is expected to rise to 93 million tonnes by 2030 and 160 million tonnes by 2050.
"Reuse. Recycle. Rethink — your clothes deserve a second life, not a landfill."

I was fortunate to be in Le Mans that day and it was great to see the interest and interaction from the employees – well done.…
& great opportunity also to present the team : Myrtille the senior brand manager of Lefranc Bourgeois just arrived 1 month ago, and Sophiane content & project manager who was hired last month after 2 years of internship ! The team is taking over the brand to bring it to the moon !1/ starting with EU consolidation and NA quest before the moon though2/ focusing on Flashe in the short term, as this paint is really unic (multi-surfaces + matity + quick dry) with extra-ordinary colors : loved by many artists since 70 years and still a lot of potential to grow !
