100% Gaillard Boutique collab's
Since 2014 and the opening of the first Boutique 100% Gaillard, things have changed a lot and the brand has grown a lot.
100% Organic
Since 2019, we have been following Brive Tourisme's sustainable tourism commitments, setting non-polluting as our first objective. The textile industry is often singled out as a major polluter, which is why we've gone 100% organic for all our textile products.
Why this objective?
Because 100% organic cotton is in line with all our values: not only does it respect our health and our planet, but it also has an ethical dimension, respecting the working conditions of our employees, which comply with the recommendations of the ILO (International Labour Organisation).
On the strength of this commitment, we now want to maintain this 100% organic line and develop the 'Made in France' concept. We are committed to suppliers who carry out the majority of their manufacturing in France, and with noble materials that's even better. Our work has only just begun, but we've already been able to work with major brands such as 'La chaise à Guy' and 'La marinière Française'.
100% Collab's
The big news since we moved to 24 rue de la République in Brive is our various collabs!
In fact, we are sometimes approached by local craftspeople who want to join the Gaillarde team and offer us their expertise on an original item!
We've taken advantage of the fact that we've expanded our premises to look for 100% Gaillarde nuggets:
We had met Julien, founder of the Uniqua brand, a few months earlier and together we designed this exclusive model, which was a real surprise for our customers!
Just like Audrey Montillet, with her brand Le Bow gaillard, whom we met during portraits organised in honour of International Women's Rights Day. A pretty seamstress from Place Latreille, she has designed some pretty clutches and bananas for our gaillardes.
As the weeks have gone by, the number of collaborations has grown and we're proud to be able to take part in highlighting our local players and showcasing this local know-how in our shop.
The 100% gaillard brand is a regional brand, a communication tool to get the word out about the region and its people, and our day-to-day mission is to promote our assets, whether they be our partners, our sites, our people, our local producers... all embarked on the 100% gaillarde adventure!
Collab's to be found in your shop : "Uniqua", "Le Bow Gaillard", "Sacré Lotois", "By Ninette", "La marinière française", "La chaise à Guy", "Corderie Palus" and many more to come...
The Bow Gaillard
Audrey Montillet, born and bred in Brivard, is a real go-getter right to the end of her machine!
A designer of unique and original bow ties, she is above all a sparkling, adorable and enterprising young woman, self-taught and passionate about sewing.
Our paths have been crossing since 2022! It's a pleasure for us to work together and offer accessories such as the "Mademoiselle Gaillarde By Le Bow" clutches.
After creating the clutch bags, we decided to take up the challenge of making 'bananas' for our Gaillardes together! Entirely handmade by Audrey, the gamble paid off: modern, practical, up-to-date, 100% local and 100% eco!
Uniqua
Uniqua was born in Limoges during the Covid confinement period, as a result of a reflection on the origins of the world's various products and on French know-how in decline.
Uniqua is a collaboration based on eco-responsible values:
- 85% French raw materials (75% from Limousin)
- recycled leather
- removable soles made from plant fibres
- recycled rubber soles
- a trainer that can be repaired for life!
This trainer is also the result of a meeting with Julien, the brand's founder... We're very proud to be able to offer our customers an item of this quality, which is entirely in line with our values. We are committed to changing the way we consume and to protecting our planet.
Sacré Lotois !
Sacré Lotois ! is a 100% Lotois brand of decorative stationery and accessories, proud of its roots!
The Sacré Lotois ! brand's mission is to promote our region and its people. From the Causses du Quercy to the Lot and Dordogne valleys, this brand is a pure product of the south-west.
It was love at first sight for Mathieu and his pencil stroke!
It's a real meeting of minds, just the way we like them! We followed his work as attentive neighbours, he knew the gaillarde moustache, we were made to work together. A native of the Lot, renowned for his graphic design work, he knows better than anyone how to 'sketch' the nuggets of his region. We wanted his vision of our own nuggets! The Lighthouse, Colette Gardens, Turenne, the Lac du Causse...
These are just some of the beauties that we've created posters and magnets for you to take home or wherever you go as souvenir gifts, and to help promote our Gaillard region.
By Ninette
We met Ervé and his daughter Sarah in our shop! They were the ones who came up with the idea of a moustache bracelet! They told us their story, explained their concept and we fell in love with their personalities.
Cactus and corn are the main ingredients in their work, which is produced in their workshop in Brive to create an item as unique as each customer.
Sustainable consumption, a limited collection, traceability of raw materials, a fair price... for a unique item that respects our planet. By choosing this 100% made in France bracelet, you are ticking all the boxes:
-Environmental commitment
-Social responsibility
-Ethical fashion
By Ninette is the story of a mother and daughter who wanted to share a common project. They are passionate about fashion and concerned about the environment.
La Chaise à Guy
We're bringing you articles in collaboration with "La Chaise à Guy" because we share this brand's commitment to the environment, its 100% French know-how and its "zero waste" strategy!

Together, we're on a mission: to transform your home with eco-responsible, local products!
Elegance and perfection are the hallmarks of these quality objects!
