French Women Always Wear This One Essential Piece During Winter

Hint: it is not a Breton top …

Winter can be a difficult time for dressing. Which is why we like to take inspiration from the international cohort – namely, French women – to see how they master it with style. Of all the pieces French women have on rotation, we’ve noticed that a good wool cardigan reigns supreme.

It makes sense, right? It’s versatile, warm and is never not in vogue. Tuck a neat cardigan in camel or oatmeal into a pair of slacks in a nod to Katharine Hepburn, belt an oversized vintage-look cardigan and let it double as a coat, or go frou-frou in a fluffy, colour-saturated style and some jeans. We’ve picked four favourites below …
