Last week I was randomly at home on a weeknight (which NEVER happens, you guys know this) and managed to catch Channel 10s The Project, where I was spoilt by the satorial choice of female host Carrie Bickmore – a gorgeous dress (which at the time I thought was a top) with a city print.
A little Twitter investigation and a few emails later and the dress was revealed to be Jolet, and the city print my beloved Paris!
Jolet AW12 turned out to be a gorgous collection of pieces, inspired by the romance and passion of an idealised love story set on the streets of 1960s Paris.
Taking inspiration from French culture and the decade-long magical relationship between musician Serge Gainsbourg and actress Jane Birkin, the collection incorporates distinctly Parisian silhouettes, draping and styling.
So are you as in love with these pieces as I am? Paris, love and fashion history? Yes, please!
The top and dress pictured here are the artificial elements top and pleat dress, just two of the pieces featuring this amazing print.
I am desperately in love with the pleat dress (Paris, pleats, gorgeous tailoring and those colours!!) and can’t wait to see it in real life – the team at Halcyon State are going to suss it out for me!
