In honor of National Women’s Month, we’re highlighting both an incredible woman and the inspiring story behind the iconic champagne she chose for her celebration.
For her 40th birthday, Kourtnee selected a V***e Clicquot theme not just for its elegance, but for the powerful history behind it.
Many people don’t realize that the brand’s legacy was shaped by a remarkable woman: Madame Clicquot. In 1805, at just 27 years old, she took over her late husband’s champagne house becoming one of the first female entrepreneurs of modern times.
She didn’t just run the company she transformed the champagne industry. Madame Clicquot invented the riddling table, a revolutionary process still used today to clarify champagne, and she expanded the house internationally, turning it into one of the most recognized champagne brands in the world.
Her legacy is one of bold decisions, innovation, and resilience the very spirit that makes this brand so iconic.
Kourtnee chose to celebrate her milestone surrounded by a group of women who have inspired and supported her throughout the years a beautiful reminder that powerful women often rise with other powerful women beside them.
Cheers to strong women, inspiring stories, and celebrating life’s milestones in style.
