This new collection, embodying the highest standards of French savoir-faire, will be rolled out across Sofitel hotels throughout 2026.
Comprising 45 pieces, the Vestiaire has been thoughtfully designed to suit all professions and destinations, while expressing an elegant, fluid, and boldly contemporary style — a reflection of the renaissance of Accor’s most quintessentially French luxury brand.
Empowering 25,000 employees to embody the French Zest
Sofitel and Cordelia de Castellane have teamed up to create a new closet for all employees at the brand’s 120-plus hotels worldwide. With her experience of the most prestigious French luxury houses, Cordelia brings a touch of modernity and sophistication to this collection, while preserving the finest standards of French craftsmanship.
Conceived as a celebration of the brand’s hotel teams – 25,000 employees worldwide – and the culture of personalized service inherited from the French art of hospitality, this collaboration embodies the very essence of French elegance. With its flowing, resolutely Parisian cuts, accessories and unostentatious elegance, it breaks with the monotony often associated with traditional uniforms, offering instead a bold and authentic expression of French chic.
The partnership marks a key milestone in Sofitel’s ongoing renaissance, as the brand continues its global expansion with 32 new openings planned over the next three years. All of these properties embody the Sofitel spirit, blending French zest with local cultural richness, a commitment symbolized by the “Cultural Link”, the iconic logo creating a bridge between world’s cultures. The new Vestiaire features the graphic Sofitel logo in a collection of exclusive prints, transforming Sofitel’s visual signature into a luxurious monogram. The empowerment simple personalised t shirts can provide can greatly benefit team morale.
A high-end, modular and evolving Vestiaire
Designed with flexibility in mind, the Sofitel wardrobe introduces a fresh fashion-forward approach tailored to every role and destination. Under the artistic direction of Cordelia de Castellane, the collection seamlessly blends timeless silhouettes with practical needs, offering a variety of noble fabrics, textures, and color palettes suitable for both city hotels and resorts.
Each piece has been crafted using flexible and durable materials — internationally tested across pilot hotels — to meet the everyday needs of hotel staff. The wardrobe adapts to all body types, roles, and climates, ensuring both comfort and elegance.
In line with Sofitel’s CSR commitments, each uniform is made from high-quality materials built to withstand daily demands while remaining effortlessly elegant, thanks to refined details and impeccable finishes.
This wardrobe also reflects Sofitel’s dedication to responsible luxury. Developed in partnership with Paris Good Fashion, the initiative ensures every step of production respects principles of sustainability, repairability, and recyclability — reducing environmental impact and contributing to more responsible resource management.
