Anyone have any knowledge of Exclusivite Galeries Lafayette or The Jodphur Company? I have a very nice crushed velvet dress with a label that says Jodphur and underneath that "Exclusivite Galeries Lafayette". Googling Jodphur clothing, I get a bespoke company out of England and googling "Exclusivite Galeries Lafayette", I get a chain of stores mostly in France. At first I thought maybe Jodphur did a RTW line that they sold in the stores, but The Jodphur Company website (whose current label spells out the company name like that but my label just says Jodphur) indicates they don't do any RTW items so I'm thinking the name is just a coincidence and I should focus more on the Exclusivite Galeries Lafayette name. Thoughts? Here's the dress: And here's the label

I don't know anything about Jodhpur, but I've been to Galeries Layafette in Paris and its a beautiful store. Definitely on the higher end of the spectrum, so the dress was probably pricey.

In case you're interested...I just found a crappy pic I took from inside the store.

There's just nothing like those magnificent old department/landmark stores. I still dream about the old Wanamaker's in Philadelphia sometimes.

Thanks! I didn't type them together when I googled; I just searched Jodphur clothing and then Exclusivite Galeries Lafayette. Duh. I'm not thinking they are associated though, as The Jodphur Company says it is bespoke. It certainly is interesting looking at their website though--there's a whole 'nother world out there, for sure. marsha91091 I saw similar pictures when I searched, and it does look gorgeous. Is it all one store or are their boutique stores in that building? According to their 'locate a store' page, there are Exclusivite Galeries stores all over France and maybe a couple outside of France.

I really think it's the Jodhpur range by Exclusivite Galeries - the label definitely links the two. Jodhpur Company is a different establishment and I don't think has anything to do with this piece - it's just a coincidental name similarity.
