What kind of clothes do Parisian women wear to work? To answer that question, we present some snaps of work clothes from Paris, where the leaves sparkle with greenery at the start of summer.
A tailored jacket is a staple of work wear, regardless of nationality. While almost every working Parisian woman has at least one in her closet, the way she wears it varies greatly. To shed the stiff, career-woman look, follow these tips for creating a relaxed, Parisian-style look!
1.
As a buyer for men's and women's wear at the popular Parisian concept store TOM GREYHOUND, Ekaterina is well-versed in fashion and chose a menswear-inspired, oversized tailored jacket with square shoulders. She paired the black suit with a plain white T-shirt and white sneakers for a clean, monochromatic look. Furthermore, keeping makeup as natural as possible, focusing only on lipstick, prevents the overall look from looking heavy.
2.
Even the same suit set can look completely different depending on the style! In contrast to Ekaterina, Abelia chose a navy outfit with a tight silhouette. The kick-flare Sabrina pants bring out a feminine vibe. As is common with both of them, pairing the suit set with refreshing white sneakers creates a relaxed look.
3.
Akina finished off her fashionable look in head-to-toe Saint Laurent. Her tailored jacket, featuring uniquely deformed sleeves, was paired with a plain T-shirt and jeans for a more subdued look. Perhaps the reason she looks so stylish, even at 150cm tall, is due to her ankle-length bottoms and gold platform sandals that reveal her instep, elongating her legs.
4.
She started out as an editor, then a stylist, and later founded the fine jewelry brand Yvonne Leon. She apparently owns several tailored jackets for work. Her less-is-more look, paired with jeans, mules, and a clutch bag, is easy to replicate.
