Coucou Suzette is a brand you’ll instantly recognize – vibrant, playful, occasionally cheeky, but always sincere and stylish. Founded in 2013 in Paris, it surprises with unique hair accessories, original brooches, socks, and gifts that combine humor, creativity, and high-quality design. The brand was created by Juliette Mallet, an illustrator from an artistic family – her mother was a stylist and painter, her father a musician, and her brother a sculptor. Growing up surrounded by creativity laid the foundation for her chosen path in life.
Juliette studied Illustration at ENSAD (École des Arts Décoratifs) in Paris and in Tokyo – a city she fell in love with and from which she draws much of her inspiration. She then went on to study jewelry design at Ecole Boulle in Paris, but her heart always remained with illustration and a playful approach to design. The brand started by accident – with a joke. She created a ring in the shape of a breast, which went viral on social media. The demand was huge, and soon Juliette decided to dedicate herself full-time to her brand.
Manufacturing and Materials – Transparent and Responsible
The brand’s designs are created in France, but production happens in collaboration with trusted partners in China and Europe (France, Portugal, Italy). The foundation of this collaboration is trust, quality, and ethical production practices.
-
Hair clips and brooches are made in China using sustainable acetate made from cotton and wood fibers.

Textile products and socks are produced both in China and Europe, following ethical labor practices.
-
All the brand’s partners are personally verified, and the long-term collaboration is based on shared values.

Each season, Coucou Suzette offers new collections inspired by animals, flowers, the human body, love, and life’s joy. Some of the most popular motifs among customers are: Dog collections – featuring illustrations of various dog breeds, including custom designs.

Collaborative collections – with artists like Angèle, Pénélope Bagieu, and others.
Authenticity Against Counterfeits
