About Us

A little love note from us to you 💌

Welcome to Love Mon Ami Designs—a playful, expressive, and élégant T-shirt brand created by a fashion school grad and her fashion obsessed daughter born from their deep love for all things French.

We’re a powerful duo—an American mom (Elaine) and a French-American daughter (Chloé)—based in Los Angeles who create designs that blend culture, humor, nostalgia, and bold femininity with a French twist. Our shirts are for the cool girls, the romantics, the witty souls, and anyone who believes a great T-shirt can spark a smile—or start a conversation.

Chloé shares how it all began . . .

Growing up, my family and I spent summers in a picturesque village in the South of France where my dad was born. My grandmother’s garden bloomed like something out of a postcard and her kitchen always smelled like love. She’s the kind of cook who doesn’t need recipes, because they live in her heart and have been passed down through generations.

These summers shaped me. They taught me the joy of beauty, the love of family, and a c'est la vie attitude towards life. My grandmother, my French roots, and those carefree summers are the heart of this brand.

My mom—the strategist, co-designer, and behind-the-scenes glue—graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and has always had an incredible eye for detail and design. She’s been my creative compass for as long as I can remember.

As for me? Fashion has always been second nature. From a young age, I appreciated style not just as clothing, but as a form of storytelling. I've always had a sharp eye for putting looks together, especially when it comes to unexpected pairings and vintage pieces. I was thrifting long before it was trendy, finding those one-of-a-kind gems. It wasn't about labels, it was about energy, expression, and finding beauty where others might not look.

Love Mon Ami is a natural extension of our lifelong passion for fashion—infused with French charm, wit, and a lot of heart.

What we create

At Love Mon Ami, we design endearing and witty, one-of-a-kind shirts that celebrate the blend of French and American culture—just like me (Chloé)! Our phrases often mix both languages in unexpected ways, creating totally original sayings that are as charming as they are cheeky. Every design is inspired by our travels, our daydreams, and our self-expression—along with cuddles from our French poodle (bonjour Margot Adèle!).

We believe fashion should feel fun, fearless, and a little flirty. Whether you’re strolling through the streets of Paris, the South of France, or your own home town, our tees are made to turn heads and warm hearts.

The meaning of "Love Mon Ami"

"Love Mon Ami" means "love my friend" and we hope you fall in love with your new favorite tee—like a comforting friend. Because the more love you feel inside, the more love you can share with the world! 

Thanks for stopping by, my friend—we’re so happy you’re here.

Avec amour,

The Love Mon Ami Team
