Zadig et Voltaire was founded in Paris in 1997 by Thierry Gillier.
The product range offered to customers extends from clothing to leather goods. Zadig et Voltaire's core target is mainly women, with men and children to a lesser extent, and its products are aimed primarily at a clientele of young, "well-to-do" women. In particular, the brand has an artistic connotation, linked to music and fashion.
Cashmere is one of the hallmarks of the brand's identity. Zadig et Voltaire products also convey a casual rock image, with a slightly anti-conformist brand image.
The group has a particularly strong presence in France, the United States, Japan and Hong Kong.
Zadig et Voltaire has over 300 stores in 30 countries and around 90 stores in France
