For those who would like parking, we have a big The story starts in 1935 in a town called Mukachevo in the heart of what was then Czechoslovakia. Jacques, our founder, just 13 years old left his home, in the village of Lochove, to go to the big city to learn a trade. There he met the Sternberg & Pasternak families who designed and tailored clothing for the elite of Czechoslovakia. They took a liking to young Jacques and offered him an apprenticeship with room and board. He soon learned the trade and it quickly became apparent that he was blessed with a golden touch. The war ravaged Europe and unfortunately he endured hell on earth. As the war came to an end, Jacques went back home and with a colleague gathered a bunch of young orphans, opened a tailor shop and worked hard at teaching them the trade to give them a profession and the ability to sustain themselves. Home, which once was democratic Czechoslovakia, became communist Russia. Many fled the country fearful of the new regime. Jacques escaped Russia while it was still possible and landed in Holland. There he married Rose and together opened his first haute couture shop. Every item was an original, designed by Jacques and tailored by hand. Jacques and Rose quickly developed an elite customer base which included the Queen herself. The Korean War started and fear of another holocaust encouraged the young couple and their baby boy, Leo, to flee to Canada and settle in Montreal. Jacques worked as a designer for several years and in 1958 opened his first shop in Montreal. For the rest of the story, click here: https://www.boutiquejacques.com/content.php?id=1
