Browsing

The Website is not a retail website but a platform presenting fashion items and accessories (« The Products ») selected according to its own editorial approach and criteria. The Products presented on The Website are the property of third party retail websites (« Retail Websites »), which offer them for sale.

The Website merely selects and displays them based on editorial and style criteria. Products are presented for a period of time determined in particular by the seasons.The user can purchase The Products. The purchase transaction does not take place on The Website and does not involve The Company; it is managed by, and according to the terms of, the Retail Website. To purchase a Product, the user has to click on the Product and supply his or her e-mail address in the window that then appears.

The user is then redirected to the Retail Website. The Website and The Company play no part in the sales process and shall thus not be held responsible for the terms of sale and delivery, nor for the quality or condition of The Products. The price of The Product is displayed on The Website for guidance purposes only, as the actual price may be different due to fluctuations in exchange rates or updates to the Retail Website.Pictures and descriptions of the items and accessories presented do not belong to the Website; they reflect what is presented on the Retail Website.

The Website is not responsible for the content of product descriptions.
