Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Hanneli

Hanneli, after Louis Vuitton, Paris, March 2012.

For me, there is a whole lotta 80's going on here with Hanneli's outfit. I think it is the wash and detailing on the jeans combined with the double-breasted jacket (with just a hint of 80's power dressing about it). But all brought firmly forward to 2012 with those Acne Alice platform pumps and the Valentino studded clutch. 

Recreate Hanneli's look (kind of):

Preen pink Navigator blazer or Stella McCartney double-breasted hemp blazer  or  ASOS premium double breasted blazer

J Brand Aidan Slouchy jeans (they haven't got the fringing down the front but still have the same-ish vaguely 80's vintage feel)

Acne Alice silk platform pump or try the Audrey platform mules in denim or hot pink silk

Valentino VaVaVoom convertible clutch/ shoulder bag in black or patent red (I love this clutch and the way you can hold it with your fingers threaded through the studded band).

Thom Browne Velvet Jacket

This Thom Browne Velvet Jacket ($2,579) has the well tailored design required to push a sharp outfit over the edge from good to great. The burgundy velvet gives the jacket its rich charm and the black grosgrain piping brings it an excellent preppy vibe. Also, the design is enhanced by the flap pockets, breast pocket, and double breasted button closure.

How to Wear a Double Breasted Blazer

 

1. A Bolder Peak

Every suit featured here has a peak lapel (rather than a notch). It's a crucial part of the bigger personality of the DB.

2. A Wider Lapel

The rules of double-breasted are different. Get used to a wider lapel than on your single-breasteds. That's part of what gives you that updated 1970s vibe you're after.

3. Six Buttons, of Course

We're classicists on this front: In almost every case, we like a six-button jacket. To see the one exception, check page 175.

4. That Tweaked Shape

The key to the DB's macho look is strong shoulders that taper to a narrow waist. If your jacket looks too boxy, have a tailor take in the sides.

5. A New, Shorter Length

The DB looks fresh once again because designers have modernized the cut, truncating the length of the jacket for this 2011 take on the look.
