Look 1 - Romantic in denim

Here, the floral button-front Niki jacket is styled with Ronsard jeans for a fresh, feminine silhouette with subtle retro vibes.

  • The denim adds structure and a little edge to energise the silhouette.

  • The high-waisted jeans elongate the figure, and the play on proportions works beautifully.

✨ The perfect mid-season outfit - effortlessly blending elegance with a relaxed feel.
