Deux par Deux

With a playful and colorful sense of esthetics, Deux par Deux, the Quebec label created by Claude Diwan and Maurice Elmaleh, turned the children’s ready-to-wear market upside down in 1982, introducing a flamboyant style with European inspirations. “For us, children represent gaiety, innocence, freedom, and we had to design a brand of clothing that brought all this to mind,” declared Claude Diwan in 1986. Through its audacious, fantastic collections, the company quickly took the lead in the Canadian children’s fashion industry.
