Sandro was founded in 1984 in Le Sentier, one of Paris's historic fashion districts. Inspired by her Moroccan childhood and the effortless elegance of Parisian women, Evelyne Chetrite envisioned clothing that blended masculine tailoring with feminine sophistication. Her philosophy continues to shape the women's collections today.
The maison steadily expanded internationally while maintaining family leadership. In 2008, Evelyne's son Ilan Chetrite launched Sandro Homme, introducing a menswear collection rooted in sharp tailoring and contemporary Parisian style. Together, the family has built Sandro into one of France's most influential premium fashion labels.
