Paris is where our story began. From our historic stores on Avenue de l’Opéra and Boulevard de Denain, Au Départ became part of a new culture of travel, creating trunks and objects for those setting out into the world.​Today, that journey continues.​

From our new boutique within The Peninsula Paris, moments from the Arc de Triomphe, discover signature bags, small leather goods and luggage pieces alongside creations that reflect our enduring approach to craft, form and movement.
