The new Vanessa Seward La Redoute edit channels effortless Parisian chic

December 2, 2020

Renowned French designer Vanessa Seward has released her third collection for the retailer La Redoute, and it’s full of effortless Parisian chic.

The designer is a favourite of Kate Middleton – the Duchess has regularly been spotted wearing her dresses – and so Vanessa’s collections with La Redoute are a fabulous way to access a bit of royal-approved style, without the hefty price tag.

Starting from just £40, Vanessa’s latest collection was inspired by her home city of Paris at night, also know as the ‘city of lights’, as well as the way French women effortlessly segue from day to night dressing, ‘wearing luxurious evening gowns with the same insouciance as a pair of jeans’. This has resulted in a collection of autumn winter staples with that cool, laidback Parisian vibe woven into every garment.

Think ivory white blazers, black cigarette trousers in thick corduroy and a little black dress that can be worn simply for day and elegantly for evening.

Alongside these pieces features an adorable feline print, which can be seen dancing across a blouse, midi dress and shirtdress.

Vanessa said: ‘I love working with La Redoute. They give me the creative freedom to explore my ideas each season and they understand the importance of strong design, a definitive colour palette, and the marriage of masculine and feminine which informs my design ethos.

‘This season, I wanted to capture the essence of a Parisian woman, living her daily life, moving seamlessly from day to evening while maintaining her signature look. I hope women everywhere will enjoy this collection and treasure it both now and for years to come.’
