Tergel Gerelt, founder of Tergel Yakshmere, is a daring fashion designer who blends the authenticity of the Mongolian steppes with Parisian refinement. Born in Mongolia and living in France for over 20 years, Tergel launched her brand in 2021 with a clear vision: to offer timeless, ethical, and luxurious pieces in 100% yakshmere.
Inspired by the richness of her native culture and her love of sustainable fashion, she has made yak wool the flagship material of her brand. This rare and ecological material, sourced from the Mongolian plateaus, offers a luxurious and responsible alternative to cashmere.
Working hand-in-hand with craftsmen in Mongolia, Tergel honors ancestral techniques, while appealing to a modern clientele conscious of its impact on the planet.
Beyond Tergel Yakshmere, Tergel is an entrepreneur at heart. She runs three other businesses, illustrating her ability to innovate in a variety of fields while remaining true to her values of sustainability and respect for craftsmanship. As the mother of three young girls, she manages to reconcile her family life and career with an energy that inspires and testifies to her dedication to her projects and those close to her.
Tergel Yakshmere has become a benchmark brand for enthusiasts of responsible, high-end fashion.
