Weill is celebrating its 125th anniversary, and this longevity bears witness to the continued renewal and relevance of its designs. This year, more than ever, “Paris is Weill”! In the same way as its legendary headquarters set at the foot of the Butte Montmartre, and which have recently been renovated, the style of the House of Weill represents a perfect balance between timeless stature and tailored modernity. In an era which combines the satisfaction of requirements with an aspiration to happiness, the time is right this winter to adopt smart outfits combining flair and comfort, style and a sense of wellbeing.
In the forefront of style:
The intelligence of curved silhouettes and embracing floating volumes in which one feels at home. The present inspired by renewed and appealing alliances: casual meets couture in summer and winter, vivacious and subtle, lingerie becomes more enterprising… Elegance with a twist of cheerful accessories, trimmings and jewels, in which veiled references combine with a quirky sense of humour.
Inner Glamour: In which sensuality reigns: fine pyjamas, ravishing nightdresses, misty lace and soft silhouettes… A refined wardrobe of shimmering velvet, light crepe, ultra-feminine safari jackets and parkas, dressing gowns and house coats, tunics and twin-sets, composes a seductive panoply…
Jersey in a Shimmer: With panache and warmth jersey lends itself to a range of sophisticated looks. Adorned with giant chevrons and leopard motifs, light beading and ribbing, or a glint of lurex: small coats, ample slacks and tunics, three-quarter length coats, wrap dresses, and smart cowl-necked tops and blazers to keep warm.
Impressive Prints: Scarves are printed with equestrian motifs dispensing a graceful touch. Set on a plain, leopard or houndstooth background, in the lining of a trench coat or a black down jacket, combined with leather, jersey or silk, in a spruce jacket, on an ‘A’ shaped dress or a graceful twin-set… graphic-couture accents gracefully stand out.
Winter Sun: A light touch: a wardrobe which adapts to an increasingly changing climate. Winter (almost) unveiled as in warmer seasons, with satin poplin, feather-light raincoats, slim line slacks, ‘destroy’ blouses, sweat shirts or knitwear with highlights of bronze, slate, pearl and navy blue to blend in with autumn hues…
Happy Hour: When an enlightened spirit awakens the night: dark blue, ultra bright red or green, sequins, re-embroidered tulle, devoré velvet, radiant pleats, braided effects, rich Jacquard motifs, festive effects for loose fitting designs, knee-length dresses, pleated tops, slacks, ample tunics and short coats… prepare to liven up the evening.
Tweed is Trumps: The essentials in the Weill wardrobe come in a wide range of variations. Tweed with denim or ethnic patterns, jewelled or fluorescent trimmings, plain or with buckles, lined or unlined, short blazers or ample tunics, light dresses or duster coats, casual or tailored… a companion for every occasion.
Paris City: The city adopts a contemporary energy. Weill redefines the dress code of the modern Parisian woman: flannel, poplin and knitwear open up new perspectives. Simple delicate and asymmetrical lines inject a new spirit. A blouse adorned with buttons at the back, a long-tailed sweater or smock, a long sleeveless jacket, or a denim garment with Jacquard motif… brings a touch or originality.
Elective Affinities: Cedar and copper coloured hues create the event: combining to produce an intense elegance in knitwear with chevron motifs and on slacks, coats in Jacquard print, dresses and flounces… producing a palette of precious shimmering effects.
Gala Attitude: Wherever the red carpet is rolled out… a selection of long dresses… velvet stretch, shimmering pleats, guipure lace or taffeta, fur trimmings, balloon sleeves, sheaths or more fluid lines… are always eager to break into a dance step.
