It had been a little while since I last wrote a fashion article here on Léonce Chenal. Not for lack of interest, quite the opposite, but because, in recent weeks, my fashion writing had found other forms, without ever leaving this space behind. Some of you follow these reflections week after week, in a more private format. Others meet them here, through my selections, the way I look at clothes, at combinations, at the logic of a wardrobe.
Today, I felt it was time to return to something simple. This is not a change of season, but a change of weight; in colour, in texture, in the way pieces sit on the body. In this article, I am sharing a selection of the most beautiful pieces I have come across in recent weeks. Pieces that still belong to winter, yet can carry you gently toward the beginning of spring, depending on where you live, the climate you inhabit, and the rhythm of your days. There is something here for different moods, different styles, and different ways of dressing. I hope you will enjoy this edit.
