While observing, sitting outside Café de la Paix, Founder Leon Claude Duhamel noticed people rushing by in their soaking wet clothes, with uncomfortable umbrellas in their hands.
He noticed a woman with two children passing by: the two children were wearing red nylon clothes, something original that he had never seen before. He picked up his notebook and wrote down: red nylon clothes. Then in the course of time he thought about it again, searched through his notes and told himself he had to do something about it.
