Our Story

Founded by fashion graduate turned entrepreneur Hope Nelson, La Mère Village (LMV) is a collection of timeless, effortlessly elegant, and romantic-inspired pieces for women and children.

Inspired by her love of travel and the beautiful, alluring charm of European aesthetics, Hope carved out the concept for LMV in March 2021 with one goal in mind – to create an all-inclusive online destination for mothers who desire to streamline their valuable time when searching for high-quality, cohesive pieces for themselves and their littles.

As a new mother and impassioned brand researcher by hobby, Hope quickly recognized the need for a digital marketplace that would solve the trial and error struggle related to the online shopping process. When dreaming about LMV in its earliest stages, Hope envisioned a “one-stop-shop” concept where premium brands from around the world would be accessible to mothers everywhere on a single website.

The idea behind the LMV concept is to offer timeless, elevated (but wearable) pieces all in one place. Customers can trust that the selections offered are exceptional quality, while also delivering a touch of classic European charm. All the pieces featured are hand-selected by meticulously diving into endless hours of brand research and scouring the world for the most unique and well-fitting clothing that will launder well and provide multiple wears.

Additionally, LMV's carefully curated selections not only look upscale and chic, the pieces feel luxurious too. LMV values textiles that manifest joy in the way the fabrics fit and feel. Customers will be thrilled with the texture, touch and fit of each of the garments featured. 

At the end of the day, LMV's mission is simple.

LMV hopes to serve as a trusted, superior marketplace for all things mom and baby and hopefully inspire you along the way.

Motherhood takes a Village. Thank you for trusting LMV to be a part of yours!
