Fashion show production in the South: French Riviera, cruise collections and private presentations

H.stories is a fashion show production agency based in the South of France, bringing the Paris Fashion Week DNA to the French Riviera, from cruise shows to private presentations across the Riviera. For over 11 years, our studio has produced 4 consecutive Haute Couture shows for Ronald van der Kemp at PFW, the Louis Vuitton Cruise Collection in Paris across two simultaneous boutiques, and numerous fashion pop-ups for Kenzo, Loewe, and LoveShackFancy. With over 350 events executed, we transform every Riviera presentation into a memorable moment, calibrated to Parisian luxury standards.

Why trust H.stories for your fashion show in the South?

A Parisian agency, transplanting Paris Fashion Week DNA to the Riviera.

The fashion show market on the French Riviera lacks highly specialized players. Easy Production specializes in photography in Saint-Tropez, IDmediacannes organizes Young Designers fashion shows, and Just Live Event provides generic event services in Monaco-Cannes. However, no local player combines luxury brand credentials with catwalk scenography expertise and premium broadcast capabilities. H.stories disrupts these norms by bringing the exacting standards of Paris Fashion Week to the Riviera. We've demonstrated this in producing Haute Couture shows for Ronald van der Kemp for 4 consecutive seasons, but also with the most complex synchronization challenges, such as for Louis Vuitton, where we orchestrated the Cruise Collection simultaneously in two Parisian boutiques. This dual expertise is what sets H.stories apart from local providers focused on general event management.
