On June 11, 2026, the Paris Commercial Court opened receivership proceedings for the French brand Coperni. The observation period runs until December 11, 2026. The payment suspension date was set for May 29, 2026. Creditors have two months from the publication of the judgment to register their claims with the insolvency administrator.
During the observation period until December 11, 2026, the company will continue to operate with the support of the court-appointed administrator. In this phase, an economic and financial analysis of the company should be created. Various options are also being examined, including a restructuring plan, the entry of new investors or a possible sale.
According to the industry magazine Vogue Business, which cites information from Coperni, the liquidity difficulties are not due to a decline in business activity. Rather, the cause was the non-payment of amounts due by Tomorrow Ltd. The company is the majority shareholder and exclusive sales partner of Coperni.
Since Tomorrow was acquired by the Italian company Progetto 11 in March 2026, Coperni founders Arnaud Vaillant and Sébastien Meyer have been trying to regain control of their brand. The talks should continue.
The tensions with the shareholder are said to have already had operational consequences. Coperni decided not to hold a fashion show during Paris Fashion Week in March 2026.
