Ideas for looks and accessorizing, ideal product combinations, or upcoming events, we provide you with our best style tips here.
Whatever the season, the long dress has the advantage of being infinitely accessorized. In winter, opt for high-shaft boots with a heel, whether small or higher, which will elongate and significantly lengthen your silhouette. Taller women can also pair a long dress with close-fitting ankle boots, while shorter women should opt for shoes that will be entirely covered by their dress. In spring or summer, wear flat or heeled sandals with your long dress for a bohemian silhouette.
With a short dress, to reveal and accentuate your legs, opt for shoes that visually lengthen the legs without cutting them off. For a rather preppy look, choose a pair of flat loafers or a pair of low-heeled pumps like 60’s-style Mary Janes, which will reveal your legs down to the feet and ensure a very slender silhouette. For a more rock-inspired look, choose a pair of slim ankle boots with a shaft close to your ankle to keep your legs visually streamlined. If your style is more casual, a pair of low sneakers or narrow ones will do the trick as the sole will slightly add height to your silhouette.
Almost self-sufficient during the warmer season, a dress requires more accessories in winter. To warm up your favorite dresses and for a trendy look, focus on layering by pairing them with sleeveless knits in the same tones, trendy overshirts, and short coats or jackets. To draw attention to your silhouette under a coat, don't hesitate to accentuate your waist with original belts. As for shoes, opt for high-shaft boots with a heel, whether small or tall, that will elongate and significantly lengthen your silhouette.
This winter, the trend is towards oversized and layered looks: opt for a stylish statement piece like a men's coat or a bathrobe-style coat with a belt at the waist that allows for layering underneath. In the same vein, go for a cocoon-like coat with a slightly sportier yet still elegant look, a trendy cape, or an XXL down jacket that has taken center stage in fashion. If you prefer to invest in a timeless piece that will last, choose a straight, mid-length coat that will simply go with everything. Regarding materials, favor those made from natural or more sustainable fibers, like recycled wool, which makes up most of the Maison 123 coats this season.
To keep your long dresses warm in winter, it's better to choose the right outerwear. With a long dress, we prefer to opt for a short coat or jacket, just above the hips. This will naturally structure and shape your silhouette by drawing attention to your waist while leaving the lower part of your dress free. You can also opt for a very long coat, below the knee, with a belt that will emphasize the drape of your dress and thus elongate your silhouette. In that case, go for a men's coat, a leather jacket, or a short shearling coat.
Cocktail, event, or night out with friends... You might be wondering how to warm up an evening dress without losing style and elegance. A tailored blazer is always a safe bet to accessorize a dressy outfit. With a short dress, opt for a slightly oversized blazer that will structure a looser dress and ensure a wonderfully trendy silhouette. With a long dress, choose a shorter, fitted jacket that will visually emphasize the waist and shape your silhouette while leaving the bottom of your long dress airy. You can also go for a leather jacket for a more casual but no less stylish look.
With a pantsuit, consisting of a blazer and matching pants, you can opt for various types of coats, as long as the coat is longer than your blazer. The trend is layering, and pairing a coat with a blazer is very elegant. For a chic and slightly androgynous look, choose a long, straight coat in the style of a men's coat. For a more urban silhouette, soften the structured look of the suit with a more relaxed piece like a trench coat. Finally, for a more casual daily look, go for a mid-length coat with a cocoon shape, comfortable and timeless.
A long skirt elongates the silhouette, so avoid a mid-length coat that would visually cut it off. Instead, opt for a jacket or a shorter coat that flatters your waist and draws attention to it. A long coat is also an option, but we prefer a very long coat, like a men's coat, which will simply emphasize the drape of your long skirt.
With a flared long skirt, like our iconic pleated or denim skirts, opt for a top that's closer to the body, such as a very fine knit, a T-shirt, or an elegant turtleneck to play with volumes and create a defined silhouette. With a long or straight midi skirt, on the other hand, go for more volume on the upper body, like an oversized shirt. For our very fluid skirts, we recommend wearing a knit sweater, loose or thick, for a successful contrast of materials.
The bohemian skirt, a long, fluid, and printed skirt, is closely associated with the 70s style. In winter, we like to wear the long skirt paired with a thick and soft knit sweater or cardigan for a lovely mix of materials and textures. For shoes, opt for a pair of high boots that will naturally elongate your silhouette. With a long skirt, choose a short coat that will reveal your waist and structure your silhouette.
With a leather skirt, opt for light and airy materials that will perfectly contrast with the leather and lighten your silhouette. For an elegant look with a leather skirt, go for an impeccable cotton poplin shirt, a fluid and feminine blouse, a sweater, or a lightweight knit cardigan.
A key piece in the wardrobe, the jumpsuit is universally loved. A strong piece that is enough on its own to create a look, but you can still add a few accessories to make your style unique. The belt is the first accessory to adopt to style your jumpsuit, define your waist, and structure your silhouette. For an everyday outfit, choose a thin belt with an original buckle, while for an evening look, you can opt for a wide and sleek belt, very elegant. For an androgynous look that recalls the masculine origin of the jumpsuit, pair it with loafers, while to feminize it, a pair of fine ankle boots with small heels will help elongate your silhouette.
