Solidarity and responsability

#OnSePelote for Pink October
Since 2021, BOHIN has been actively supporting the fight against breast cancer alongside the Institut Curie.
It began in 2021 with a reimagined version of our iconic pincushion bracelet, featuring a Murano glass-head pin and a name evoking the breast. Alongside this, we launched a breast self-exam awareness campaign under the hashtag #OnSePelote.
Each year since, a new pink item joins the initiative:
2022: the pelote bracelet donned exclusive fabric by designer Amandine Cha.
2023: our sewing needles were unveiled in pink.
2024: the tape measure was released in an elegant fuchsia.
A portion of each sale is donated to Institut Curie to fund research and prevention.

L’Atelier Aigle Insertion : local & meaningful commitment
Since 2021, BOHIN has made part of its premises available to L’Atelier Aigle Insertion, a project run by Mission Locale L'Aigle Mortagne, which supports the job integration of people far from employment.
They create under the brand Seconde Vie, using new or upcycled fabrics.
They design bespoke textile products for professionals and upcycle high-end garments into one-of-a-kind pieces.
Since 2022, a solidarity fashion show is held annually at our workshop gallery, where original outfits are showcased and then sold in a pop-up boutique.
This partnership reflects our commitment to supporting local, creative and purposeful projects.

Simone Pheulpin
We discovered Simone Pheulpin’s extraordinary textile sculptures in an art magazine—kilometers of fabric embedded with countless BOHIN pins. Though hidden, they are essential to her art.
She has used our pins for over 30 years, saying they are “the best.” Each year, she consumes dozens of kilos.
Moved by her talent, BOHIN’s CEO Audrey Régnier officially began supporting her work. Simone received the Loewe Foundation Honorary Prize at the 2018 Craft Prize in London.
Her artwork “Audrey” is now on display as part of the BOHIN workshop tour.

Eymeric François
How can one not be mesmerized by Eymeric François’s work?
The first time we saw one of his iconic pin dresses, the entire BOHIN team was awestruck—and so were visitors at our first trade show.
His creations, delicate yet bold, wove elegance across Fashion Week runways.
Over the years, a deep bond of mutual respect and generosity has grown between Eymeric and BOHIN.
Today, three pin dresses belong to our collection—two for events, and one remains on view during workshops visits.
More than sponsorship, this is a genuine friendship rooted in shared passion and creativity.

Floryan Varennes
Early in his career, Floryan Varennes approached BOHIN to showcase his contemporary art featuring our pins. Our then Commercial Director saw real promise and chose to support him.
A trusting relationship formed, built on sincerity, loyalty and kindness.
Floryan’s work—crafted with pearls, Meisenthal glass, scarves and repurposed objects—transforms everyday items to spark inquiry and wonder.
BOHIN is proud to champion emerging artists like Floryan.

Biches Festival
Since 2023, BOHIN has partnered with the Biches Festival, a warm and independent music event held a few kilometers from our workshops.
This collaboration reflects our support for local cultural initiatives that promote creativity, authenticity and community.
We’re proud to help amplify this festival that brings music, nature and conviviality to life each summer.
