Bugatchi

Quick history

Bugatchi was founded in the early 1980s in Montreal, Canada, as a menswear brand focused on refined casualwear and dress shirts. The brand became especially known for its European-inspired tailoring, vibrant prints, and later its innovative knit and stretch fabrics designed for comfort and movement. Bugatchi positioned itself at the intersection of polished and wearable, offering elevated pieces that could transition easily from professional to social settings.
