Mauritius born entrepreneur Darshana Salvisberg founded Atelier Parsmei as an ethical, sustainable and socially conscious label. After her business studies at the London School of Economics & Political Science and at the University of Oxford, and her career in finance, she completed a course in Childrenswear Design at Central Saint Martins and in Sustainable Business Strategy at Harvard Business School. She currently lives in Switzerland.

Whilst raising her two inspiring girls, Darshana experienced the invincible bond between mother and child. This enlightening interconnection serves as the principal force for the label’s philosophy and the basis of its collections, and is manifested within the brand’s name ParsMei as in Latin, it means “part of me”. Darshana strongly believes that both Mother and Child ‘Mommy & Me’ can wear and enjoy luxury pieces that are respectful in their production and benefits future generations.
