Before joining Dormeuil in 2006 as Sales Director, Boide gained nearly a decade of international experience at Chargeurs in Europe, where he advanced to Director of Sales and Topmaking. His role allowed him to handle wool markets across Europe, manage pricing, oversee processing stages, and launch two new labels in 2004 aimed at the luxury market. This rich background provided him with a foundation to drive Dormeuil’s high-end brand development and global expansion.

P N RAO – Timeless Style and the Pinnacle of Bespoke Tailoring

From British officers in the early 20th century to today’s modern suit connoisseurs, P N RAO has evolved to offer not just impeccable suits but also sophisticated ethnic wear for both men and women. Their new ethnic collection combines heritage with contemporary style, crafted from premium domestic and international fabrics. This innovative range showcases an irreplaceable flair, designed to turn heads at any gathering.
