There’s something about Sézane that feels instantly, unmistakably French—like a café au lait on a quiet Parisian morning or the soft click of ballet flats on cobblestone streets. Founded in 2013 by Morgane Sézalory, the brand was born from a love of vintage and an intuitive sense of timelessness. What started as a curated online storefront of reworked vintage finds has evolved into a full-fledged fashion house rooted in craftsmanship, sustainability, and effortless elegance. Each piece feels considered—never trend-chasing, always chic. And while Sézane is now beloved worldwide, its spirit remains distinctly Parisian: romantic, classic, and quietly bold.

Colette Striped Marinière

Few things evoke French style quite like a striped marinière, and Sézane’s Colette Tee is the gold standard. Crafted from organic cotton with just the right amount of structure, this top adds a fresh, nautical touch to any look. The slightly boxy fit feels modern yet relaxed—perfect tucked into high-waisted denim or layered under a trench coat. Whether you’re heading to a seaside café or just chasing that effortless “je ne sais quoi,” the Colette Tee is as essential as a good red lipstick.

Le Crop Denim

Sézane’s denim is one of its best-kept secrets, and the Le Crop style might just be the hero piece of the collection. With a flattering high-rise waist and a just-right ankle crop, these jeans elongate the leg and pair beautifully with everything from sneakers to heels. The structured denim holds its shape without feeling stiff, and the vintage-inspired washes make them feel like an old favorite from the start.

Milo Handbag

If you’re looking for a handbag that feels both polished and practical, look no further than the Milo. With its structured silhouette and timeless design, it’s a piece that effortlessly transitions from weekday to weekend. The adjustable strap allows for both shoulder and crossbody wear, while the rich leather only gets better with age. The Milo is a quiet luxury—the kind of accessory that speaks softly, but stylishly.

Scott Trench Coat

A wardrobe essential reimagined the Sézane way, the Scott Trench Coat is as timeless as it is practical. With classic tailoring, storm flaps, and a flattering belt tie, it captures all the hallmarks of a heritage trench—yet the fit and finish feel refreshingly modern. Lightweight but substantial, it’s the kind of coat that elevates a rainy day and pulls together even the simplest outfit.

Betty Cardigan

Feminine and nostalgic, the Betty Cardigan brings a subtle retro vibe with its cropped length, openwork details, and delicate buttons. It’s the type of layer that instantly softens a look—throw it over a cami with jeans, or wear it buttoned up with a midi skirt and slingbacks. The Betty is one of those wardrobe pieces that feels both special and everyday, with just enough vintage flair to set it apart.

Pippa Dress

A modern romantic, the Pippa Dress floats between seasons and occasions with ease. Its feminine silhouette—complete with a faux wrap waist, short sleeves, and a breezy skirt—feels straight out of a Provençal daydream. Whether worn with sandals and a straw hat or dressed up with heels and earrings, it’s a piece that moves with you, offering elegance without ever feeling overdone.

Anya High Heels

These are the heels you’ll reach for again and again. With a walkable block heel, timeless almond toe, and braided detailing, the Anya Heels are both pretty and pragmatic. They transition beautifully from day to night, from office to occasion, pairing just as well with tailored pants as they do with breezy dresses. If you’re searching for a shoe that balances beauty with comfort, Anya is it.

Gaspard Sweater

Arguably Sézane’s most iconic knit, the Gaspard Sweater is the definition of versatility. With its dainty mother-of-pearl buttons and reversible design, it can be worn as a cardigan or a crewneck—whichever suits your mood. The mohair and alpaca blend gives it a soft, airy quality, while the delicate knit makes even the simplest outfit feel elevated. Style it over a slip dress or pair it with tailored trousers for a cozy-meets-chic moment.

Building a Sézane wardrobe is less about chasing trends and more about curating timeless pieces that fit your life—season after season, year after year. Each item blends French elegance with thoughtful design, creating a closet that feels as beautiful as it is functional. Whether you’re new to the brand or simply refining your collection, these essentials are the perfect foundation for a style that’s classic, effortless, and entirely your own.
