JACQ IS THE NEW BLACK

And just like that, it’s winter again. You’ve packed your summer dresses away for another year, and chances are, you’re feeling pretty uninspired by your wardrobe. But despite the freezing cold temperatures and wet, dark evenings that lie ahead, this time of year can be just as exciting sartorially as summer. Even more so now...

With social calendars ready to be filled once more, this season presents countless excuses to get dressed up. Now available to shop in-store and online, Jacquemus is the label fashionable women all over the world have fallen for. With its slinky silhouettes that reinvent cliché shapes to its miniature handbags that discard a sense of proportion, Jacquemus’ designs embody a modern woman with a sense of imagination and confidence.

For AW21, Jacquemus has proven that a winter wardrobe needn’t be boring. From an explosion of colour to reimagined silhouettes, Jacquemus has injected joy into winter basics. Ahead, we’ve rounded up the five must-have pieces from the latest collection that will each have you excited to get dressed again.

THE COAT

Shearling jackets are by no means a groundbreaking trend for AW, but Jacquemus has taken this winter staple and reinvented it. Cropped into a miniature fit, crafted from buttery leather and lined in shearling, this is sure to become your winter go-to.

THE DRESS

With the festive season just around the corner, prepare for a Christmas filled with party invites. But the best way to completely avoid those dreaded ‘nothing to wear’ moments is by investing in a timeless mini dress. Made from fluid, glossy satin, this La Robe Saudade dress is cut to a mini length with a square neck and detailed with asymmetrical gathering at the hem making for a silhouette that’s flattering to every body.

THE SWEATER

Forget any notions of stuffy knits, this winter, Jacquemus has elevated the wardrobe stalwart to new levels of cool with neon brights and ultra-flattering fits. Striking the perfect balance between comfortable and cool, this La Maille Risoul Sweater features dropped shoulders and a double neckline created with a wide, zipped collar and crew neck underneath. In short, it’s a throw-on piece that will instantly upgrade any outfit.

THE BLAZER

With a return to office lurking ominously, a well-tailored blazer is a new season must. Aptly named, the La Veste D'Homme blazer takes inspiration from the retro, boxy cuts of men's tailoring in the '90s. For days when you're hot desking, wear yours with matching suit trousers.

THE BAG

No Jacquemus edit could be complete without mention of its now iconic Le Chiquito bag. As we return to some level of socially distanced fun, let’s make the most of needing a handbag again. A miniature bag screams fun, but there’s just one rule: the brighter and smaller, the better.
