Courrèges is a French fashion house founded by André Courrèges in 1961 that's known for its futuristic and 1960s-inspired style. The brand's designs are simple, geometric, and modern, and include the "little white dress" and women's pants. Courrèges was a pioneer of women's short skirts and slim trousers, and his designs were often paired with low-heeled white ankle boots that became known as the Courrèges boot. The brand's clientele were mature, conservative women with high disposable incomes, and its designs were popular with French stars like Catherine Deneuve, Brigitte Bardot, and Françoise Hardy
