Rykiel Homme was Sonia Rykiel’s menswear line, launched around 1990, and presented collections that adapted the brand’s knitwear and layering expressions for men. The menswear business accounted for a small share of sales and faced profitability challenges, so presentations of the men’s collections were suspended and discontinued between 2008 and 2009. It was a gender-specific sub-line alongside the brand’s other lines (womenswear and childrenswear).
