6IXTY8IGHT was founded in 2002 in Paris by French lingerie designer, Marie Destombe and Swedish business man Erik Ryd.

As an established lingerie manufacturer in Asia, Ryd saw the business opportunity for a young lingerie brand. In 2003, Ryd set up headquarters in Hong Kong and launched the first 6IXTY8IGHT store in Beijing. The 6IXTY8IGHT name was created from the Chinese numerology meaning of 6 and 8 together as: Forever Luck! Since 2015, 6IXTY8IGHT have expanded rapidly and is now one of the fastest growing brands in Asia, with stores across: China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Korea and Singapore. With an aggressive expansion strategy for the coming years, the vision is : "To Be The Number One Retailer for Young Women in Asia!"
