Doucet seemed doomed to become a fashion designer, born in the Rue de la Paix in Paris, where all the big fashion houses of the early twentieth century were based in his childhood. He was a friend of Gaston and Jean-Philippe Worth.
The young designer took over the clothing store founded by his grandfather. Soon he had already attained great appreciation, and even today he is considered the creator of the most expensive suits and elegant evening gowns of his day.
Doucet created clothing designed for social events, and their designs were very popular among the ladies who wanted to draw the attention of wealthy men. But they were not really interested in the fashion of Jacques Doucet, but in the luxury. Covering their clothes in pastel shades, embroidery and other embellishments, they were exquisite and very refined.
Jacques Doucet is also a central figure in the fashion industry because he helped countries who later revolutionized the fashion industry take their first steps into this world, with his great skill for discovering new talent.
