Laurent Planeix moved to America from France in 1997 with the firm goal
of pursuing his own American Dream of honing his craft and building a
successful brand centered around his talents. After spending years
making a living for himself in New York City, Laurent decided the
logical next step was to move to Hollywood and further explore a career
in Fashion and Entertainment. Once in Los Angeles, Laurent continued to
travel back and fourth from Los Angeles to Asia working as an actor &

others on Hollywood's who's who. On the event s side Laurent produced
many celebrity and industry affairs including a star studded red carpet
party for designer Christian Audigier's birthday where he met his and
began working with his current business partner Phil Viardo who at the
time headed his renowned boutique entertainment firm, The Viardo

fashion companies and contributing to the success of others, Planeix decided it was time to turn his designs and marketing ideas to
work for himself. Thus, he created the Marceau brand. Marceau embodies
the pinnacle in modern trend design and French flair and was debuted in
2006 at a Hollywood Launch Event attended by numerous celebrities,
industry professionals, and the media. Among those involved in the
event was Kim Kardashian who was featured walking the runway in

he decided to venture into the Swimwear market. Laurent teamed up with
