ALL HAIL The NEW
QUEEN
Trigère is crowned the queen of couture
Anointed by the press as “The Queen of Fashion”, Pauline Trigère assumes
her rightful position at the apex of New York Couture. Often referred to
as “America’s Coco Chanel”, Trigère is sophisticated, elegant, and never
afraid to speak her mind; a larger-than-life personality who embodies the
essence of timeless, gallic chic. With her signature dark glasses, perfectly
coiffed grey hair, and throaty French accent, Trigère dominates New York
fashion for more than 50 years.
