History
Marie Claire was founded by Jean Prouvost (1885–1978) and Marcelle Auclair (1899–1983).
Its first issue appeared in 1937, and it was distributed each Wednesday until 1941 when it handed out its shares to open in London, going international for the first time. In 1976, Prouvost retired and his daughter Évelyne took over the magazine and added L'Oréal Group to the company.
