She is a designer, fashion icon and French – any questions? If anyone knows how francaise fashion works, it is Inès de la Fressange.
When it comes to style and inspiration for our next favorite look, we are only too happy to look to our neighbors from France. Because one thing is as certain as the fact that Karl Lagerfeld would never have worn jogging pants during his lifetime: French women are true masters at putting together perfect looks seemingly effortlessly.
Inès de la Fressange is one of those who also took on the awareness of style with breast milk. Fashion icon, designer, muse – the 63-year-old is the absolute model Parisian and has already convinced the above-mentioned jogging pants rebels of her unique flair for fashion. Even at over 60, she is still the first port of call for anyone who wants to learn a little style.
So it's no wonder that we read very carefully when Inès gave an interview to 'Vogue' and revealed how we too bring a touch of this famous French nonchalance into our wardrobe. And, according to the fashion icon, that has nothing to do with magic, genes or a full bank account. As is so often the case, it is the right basics that turn a good look into a wow look – and especially these five parts:
A white or black silk blouse is always timeless. A well-cut blazer or jacket, jeans, nice shoes and a lover
, said Inès de la Fressange in an interview with 'Vogue' and has a styling tip ready that we will all take to heart from now on. True to the motto "less is more", in future we should concentrate on the essentials and "remove everything that can be removed!" Keeping on with accessories or combining wild patterns beyond recognition? Non, merci beaucoup!
(And just so that there are no misunderstandings: The "less is more" rule does not apply to lovers of course …)
