How to wear the lavallière collar during the holidays?
Forget the serious office look; for the holidays, the lavallière collar wants to be festive, imposing, and colorful.
It sums up the challenging equation that makes an outfit both bourgeois and sexy at the same time.
The advantage of choosing the lavallière collar during the holidays? You can wear a very simple outfit made up of pants and a shirt; the lavallière collar will add a chic and joyful touch without needing to add other accessories.
Still looking for your New Year’s Eve outfit? I’m sure that among the basic pieces in your wardrobe, there’s one that would be enhanced by a beautiful lavallière collar.
We adapt it in a mixed way
Invented by Louise de la Vallière, mistress of King Louis XIV, who embellished her dresses with a large scarf in the shape of a bow tie, the lavallière collar has long remained a feminine attribute.
Morals in society and fashion have of course evolved, and the lavallière collar is now worn by both women and men.
No doubt, if you wear it as a man, you will make a statement!
Chic like a Parisian
We all have in mind the image of the quintessential Parisian. Why not adopt this iconic look with a little lavallière collar to stand out while remaining chic and comfortable.
Choose a bow that contrasts with the top to highlight the whole outfit. Indulge in a beautiful festive makeup, and if you want to go a bit heavier than usual, don’t hesitate. With this classic and chic look, you can really go all out on the makeup. After all, celebrations are also about treating yourself!
We wear it festive and imposing
Worn over a golden or silver blouse, the bow of the lavallière collar adds volume for a festive and shiny effect. Perfect for celebrating the arrival of the New Year 2024 on a high note. You can opt for a total contemporary and royal look or tone it down a bit by choosing a softer tulle dress, for example.
