An elegant wardrobe does not call for many pieces. It calls for the right ones, well cut, in fabrics that last. Here are the ones we come back to season after season.
The blazer, which structures everything
Over raw denim jeans, it dresses things up. With matching trousers, it makes a set. Choose a clean shoulder and a length that falls at the hip: that is the version that goes with the most things.
Jeans, chosen for their cut
They are the most-worn piece in the wardrobe, and the one that deserves the most care. Wide, flare, straight or balloon: each cut changes the silhouette. Our fit guide helps you find yours.
The white shirt
Open over a top, tucked into high-rise trousers, slipped under a blazer: it never dates. Choose a slightly fluid fabric, which hangs well without being ironed to perfection.
The fine knit
In a crew neck or V-neck, it replaces the T-shirt as soon as the temperature drops. Worn on its own or over a shirt, it softens structured outfits.
Tailored trousers
High-rise, with a straight or wide leg, they lengthen the silhouette and work as well with trainers as with heels. They are what take an outfit from day to evening without changing anything else.
How to put them together
Keep a short colour palette: denim blue, ecru, black, camel. All these pieces then combine with one another, and a single brighter colour is enough to refresh the whole.
