The importance of basics to combine during this fall-winter
A good basic should be that ally you can wear in a thousand ways and that always suits you in any situation. But what if we go one step further?
Basics are versatile, yes, but they can also have a thoughtful design and a personal touch that make them special. You can have a functional wardrobe that makes you feel comfortable and confident, without sacrificing your authenticity.
What if they're also quality garments that care for the planet? Then basics are the best .
Sustainability is a key element of every fashion equation, at least for us. Garments that last several seasons, made with organic fabrics and produced locally. This is how, little by little, you can build a more conscious and environmentally friendly wardrobe.
Ultimately, why invest in basics with personality and sustainable DNA?
Because they're the cornerstone of a capsule wardrobe : they allow you to dress simply and uncomplicatedly, while still expressing your personality and values. It's the magic of timeless fashion .
What winter basics are essential in a woman's wardrobe?
Here are our recommendations for basics. Items that will not only see you through this winter, but will also be your best allies season after season.
Timeless black dress
The classic that never fails. How about a black midi dress ? You can wear it with boots, sneakers, or that other pair of shoes that's so you. Its versatility and minimalist cut make it ideal for any occasion. Any occasion! It's your most classic and timeless wardrobe staple.
Oversized organic cotton sweater
There's nothing better than a good oversized sweater to hug you on the coldest days: loose, soft, comfortable, and perfect for wearing both at home and on the go. A basic that adapts to your body without constricting, giving you freedom and style at the same time.
Black pencil skirt
An elegant piece, but with plenty of attitude. You can wear it with sneakers for a more casual look or with boots for a sophisticated statement. Pencil skirts go with absolutely everything, and best of all, they always look good.
Shirt-shirt
It's a hybrid garment we designed to combine the best of a shirt and a T-shirt. Comfortable, versatile, and with that formal touch you sometimes need. The T-shirt is perfect for everyday wear, whether for work or dinner with friends.
Blazer
When a jacket and a blazer come together, the result is a garment that's equally functional and stylish, which is why we created it. It goes with any look and adds a touch of structure without being too formal. The blazer is an essential staple.
Sweater dress
Versatility in a garment. You can wear it as a short dress with tights or as a long sweater with pants. The sweater dress is a comfortable and warm option that we designed to suit your style and last all winter.
Basic black pants
The king of basics. Black pants are that piece of clothing that you can always pair with everything and that never goes out of style. Their minimalist design makes them perfect for any occasion.
Denim or jeans pants
Because no wardrobe is complete without a good pair of jeans . Comfortable, versatile, and perfect for any season. A must-have for any wardrobe. And if they're sustainable, even more so.
How to create a capsule wardrobe with combinable basics
Creating a capsule wardrobe isn't complicated. You just need a few well-chosen pieces that can be combined together, so you can dress stylishly and effortlessly. It's the key to a simpler life and more sustainable fashion. We've already talked about this concept on our blog; discover it in the article: How to Create a Capsule Wardrobe .
Can we wear our winter basics in other seasons of the year?
You might think winter basics are only made for the colder months. But what if we told you you can use them in any season?
You don't need to change your entire wardrobe every season. You can get the most out of your winter essentials all year long.
Imagine your oversized sweater on a cool spring night, paired with lightweight pants. Or that shirt-and-tee you can wear 365 days a year, just adjust the layers. The sweater dress is also a perfect transitional piece: in winter, wear it with tights and boots, and in spring, with sneakers and bare legs.
Ultimately, basics aren't designed to be fleeting, but rather to last you all year long.
