The 7-Piece Jeanne Damas French Capsule Wardrobe
Parisian It girl Jeanna Damas is known for her cool take on French fashion, and her style is unwavering. Rather than test-driving the latest trends to hit the runways and the street style scene, she approaches fashion from her own point of view. What that means is that she’s often spotted in the same staples, but in new silhouettes and prints each season.
Damas epitomizes the laid-back French approach to style, and her outfits are a lesson in how to pull it off. So what are the pieces that she stocks in her closet? Ahead, I’m highlighting the seven-piece Jeanne Damas French capsule wardrobe. If you’re inclined to try out Parisian style for yourself, these are the essentials you’ll want to add to your shopping cart. Go on to see how Damas styles them and shop the capsule collection.
Ankle Boots
No matter what time of the year, ankle boots are a French-girl staple you’ll find in Damas’s closet.
Wrap Dresses
Dresses in a wrap silhouette are one of the pieces you’ll spot Jeanne Damas wearing most often. Her fashion label, Rouje, has a range of silhouettes in cool colors and prints.
Strappy Heels
Throwback strappy sandals are one of the biggest trends of 2019, but that isn’t why Damas is wearing them. You’ll see her wearing the staple time and time again.
Cropped Flares
The aforementioned ankle boots and strappy sandals are a favorite Damas pairs with cropped flares on repeat.
Cardigans
Cardigans are another huge trend for 2019, and they just so happen to be a Damas favorite. Look to her for cool ways to style the unassuming fashion trend.
Printed Skirts
When Damas isn’t wearing a wrap dress, chances are she’s swapped one out for a printed skirt. Paired with a colorful tee, it’s the ultimate vacation essential.
One-Piece Swimsuits
Speaking of vacation, Damas seems to always pack a classic one-piece swimsuit—whether in a solid black color or a print.
Next, see the 13 pieces I’m wearing on repeat right now.
