The Parisian Autumn Card
She’s 69. A navy coat, a white shirt, jeans, flat shoes. Nothing she wears is asking for attention, and yet when Inès de la Fressange arrives at the shows, the cameras turn around.
I went through years of her photos and videos, from fashion week arrivals to rainy weekdays, and the same five decisions came up every autumn. The free card puts all five on one page, with two outfits to copy for each, ten in all, from clothes you most likely already own.
I · Navy, not black
II · Borrow his jacket
III · White near the face
IV · One colour, only one
V · Flat shoes, always
Two outfits to copy for each rule
Every piece listed, outfit by outfit

The full Style Notes, 19 pages
Ten more Parisian outfits on the same five rules. Each rule in pictures first, then one page per outfit: the formula, the rule it’s built on, the detail she would notice, a swap for your own wardrobe and a close-up check. Plus ten extra outfits mixed from the same pieces. Included with the Elegant Insider Club, US$14.99/month.
Read the free sneak peek — one outfit, in full.
Independent styling notes. The five rules are our reading of Inès de la Fressange’s public outfits, not quotes from her, shown for commentary and style education. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Inès de la Fressange.
