Daily inspiration: Blue

No matter the age, there is one color that fits all women – Blue or as we love to call it M-Couture Blue. We almost fell from our chairs, when we saw this lady on the streets of Paris (captured by talented Scott Schuman aka Sartorialist) while attending Stella McCartney show wearing Prada. It’s not about the coat here, but about the attitude. More than chic and super elegant! So, the final resolution is – when you are over your 50s, it doesn’t mean you have to wear dark colors, sometimes light and soft shades make you stand out of the crowd, and self confident smile is the best to pair it with.

We have a lot of blue in current FW14 collection, bet we are really in love with our Kennedy jacket or the whole set actually.

 

Oversized & Loose

Dress like you don’t care. This is a perfect vision of a urban girl. We always keep in mind and also suggest our clients to have a look that doesn’t look forced or prepared. M-Couture is known for its perfect mix of feminine and masculine, so this time we offer you a light tunic with penguin print paired with classical men’s wardrobe piece – oversized “denim” jacket.

Here is a history flashback why the denim jacket became so popular…once considered only a workwear. So, when singer Bing Crosby was refused entry into an upmarket hotel during the 1950s because he was wearing a denim jacket, Levi Strauss & Co. made him a tuxedo – in the same fabric. The jacket had been a staple of the working world for some 70 years, which is why its appearance at a swanky venue might have been unexpected, but this is why its many variations, most of them take on a simple, waisted, breast pocket style, have appealed to the outdoorsmen and pioneer workers for whom they were originally created, and to ranch hands and beat intellectuals, heavy metal rockers and artists.

Etrenal lines

If you are choosing an outfit close to your skin tone, make sure that the style of the garment is fluid and never tight. We suggest a pale pink oversized dress coat from our current collection.

“The reveled shoulder, is just enough to show your feminine attitude, yet keeping the rest hidden under a well buttoned up line.”
