Until then, whose look speaks to your style?
Discussing and attempting to replicate how French women dress seem to be recurring themes in fashion, don’t they? One or two pages in your favorite glossy this month probably take a stab at the formula. Luckily for us, we won’t have to try to hard as Vanessa Seward has dedicated her latest collection to the undeniable and unforgettable chicness of les femmes françaises.
The brand just opened its first boutique in the City of Lights and they’re already getting quite a bit of traffic. It’s no surprise as Seward’s are looks that build a year-round wardrobe. You could literally take the assortment’s opening white suit and wear it right now: for your wedding, to work, or by separating the blazer and pants. Take notes designers: this is what versatility looks like.
Many of us yearn for the Yves Saint Laurent of yesterday (sorry Hedi) and though those memories will live on in style history for decades to come, Seward harnessed the power of the icon with pieces that riffed on some of his 70’s signatures. A blue brocade skirt felt glamorous yet undemanding with flat sandals for anchors, the French fashion house’s trademark heart motif crept in on a scarf, and a flirty pleated swing dress radiated confidence and sexiness.
Seward’s designs weren’t incredibly inventive or unusual, but neither of those adjectives need describe a wardrobe built on functionality and quality. After all, one thing we’ve learned is that the key to looking even remotely as stylish as French women is by not trying too hard: or at least not looking as if you did. The ease and tailoring of a navy double-breasted jacket or a pair of high-waist army green khaki trousers are just the kinds of pieces you’ll see the designer wear herself—exuding effortlessness and sophistication with every step.
Once warm weather rolls around, all stylish women want are chic pieces that are easy to slip in and out of. Luckily for them, Stella McCartney makes designs that fall into that category. She served up an entire collection of them for her latest runway effort, with a particular focus on one of her signature categories: knitwear.
McCartney’s partnership with Adidas is still going strong, thus we know she can deliver on athletic-inspired wear with little to no effort. A sporty chic flair was injected here with figure-skimming ribbed polos and matching pencil skirts, bold visor-inspired aviator shades, and strappy flatforms.
Pleats introduced movement into the designs on neon-hued frocks, asymmetric-hem tanks and maxi skirts, and strapless tunics. Bright shades are a trademark of the season and it was refreshing to see McCartney embracing vibrant shades.
The brand always has a standout stamp each season and for Spring, it’s all about swirl embroidery. The artful design was emblazoned onto a black and white dress with a sheer, sultry bodice, a sleeveless jumpsuit with a low-cut neckline, a mockneck sweater and matching trousers, and sporty chic separates.
Menswear-inspired suiting has been symbolic of the brand since its inception and McCartney reassessed the classics with functional, long-line double breasted vests, easy trousers, boxy power blazers, and strapless tunics that could double as tuxedo dresses. The looks echoed an attractive and engaging luxury, though they were at times minimalist in their approach.
Denim was given a surprising and elegant spin with off-the-shoulder, zip-front tunics, slouchy jeans that could have admittedly used a bit of hemming if they’re meant to actually be worn in real-life, and a collared, long-sleeve shirt for a modern riff on the timeless button-front shirt.
And the eyelet frocks will undoubtedly be the red carpet pieces of the season. With sheer insets, one-shoulder necklines, leg-baring lengths, and colorful tints, the dresses will certainly catapult their wearers to the top of the season’s best dressed list.
What do you think of McCartney’s Spring collection?
So, even with all the trends, the monochromatic look is here to stay (at least for one more season).
Be inspired to embrace a tonal color palette with the 5 Fabulous Looks below, curated by the brilliant Danielle Nicole aka @StyleisMyObsession:
Complete with black accessories: Casadei pumps, an Hermes bag, and an Hermes cuff.
Head to toe brown is popping this Fall, and what better way to achieve it that with various textures? Start with a suedette Halston dress, and complete with a suede trench.
Chic booties and a Peek a boo bag provide the perfect finishing touches.
Black on black is always chic, especially with a burst of Balmain!
