BY TERRY has given its flagship Paris store 36 Galerie Vero-Dodat a stunning makeover and invites customers inside its new Art Deco-inspired universe.

Having worked for 15 years at YSL, Terry de Gunzburg understands that are the worlds of beauty and fashion are inextricably linked. It was while working for one of the most revered haute couteur fashion houses that the BY TERRY founder invented her unique concept of bespoke beauty, which has come to define her eponymous brand.

Take an exclusive look inside founder Terry de Gunzburg's exquisite homes around the world, which are filled with her impressive collection of precious objects and artwork. Carefully curated over the past two decades, the vast collection highlights the founder's innate eye for beauty.

“We used to live on the shores of Egypt when I was a child, and I remember staring at the most beautiful plants and admiring their beauty and at the same time wondering about the scientific creation behind them. I always wanted to deconstruct flowers and plants to understand how they were made.” - Terry de Gunzburg.

Terry de Gunzburg's passion for roses, a flower which has come to define the BY TERRY brand and is the signature ingredient in many of its bestselling products, stems from her childhood, and has been nurtured ever since.

To create her now globally successful beauty brand, BY TERRY, founder Terry de Gunzburg drew upon her own lifestyle and beauty needs as a busy working woman and mother.

​Nestled in the 1st arrondissement of Paris just off of rue Jean-Jacques Rousseau is the covered passage, Galerie Vero-Dodat. Built in 1826 during the Bourbon restoration dynasty, covered galleries were hugely popular city playgrounds for the new middle classes complete with public baths, bistros and billiards halls—by the mid-19th century there were over 150 passages in Paris alone.

Throughout her career, Terry has been obsessed with the scientific side of beauty and has spent decades working closely with research and development teams across makeup, skincare and fragrance. With a family background in science—her father is a pharmaceutical researcher—and early studies in medicine, she’s always appreciated the power of active ingredients to treat and enhance the skin.
