Enfants Riches Déprimés and Henri Alexander Levy: founded in LA in 2012, the Le Rosey T-shirt, hand-worked small runs and deliberate prices, Art Brut and Dubuffet, a debut at Christie's Paris in 2017; Spring 2027 back at Christie's, off-calendar, among Antoni Tàpies works

Between its two Christie's shows, Enfants Riches Déprimés has also shown at the Oratoire du Louvre and the Lycée Henri-IV, and its spring 2027 show included burgundy leather shorts carrying the Coca-Cola script in Hebrew. It sells through about 85 wholesale stockists as well as its own stores, on rue Charlot in Paris since 2019 and in Seoul since May 2025. The Tribeca store is meant to be the first to carry every part of the brand, furniture included. Levy splits his time between Paris and Los Angeles.
