own A Piece of Parisian History!

Before she became the face of Chanel and an enduring symbol of French je ne sais quoi, Inès de la Fressange was already rewriting the rules of Parisian style. Founded in 1991 after her legendary tenure as Karl Lagerfeld's muse, her eponymous label — Inès de la Fressange Paris — became a love letter to effortless French elegance: never overdressed, never underdressed, always perfectly chic. Her designs celebrate the art of dressing with intelligence and ease, blending classic tailoring with a re, lived-in confidence that only the French seem to master.

This coat is a rare find — a piece that carries the spirit of that philosophy in every stitch.
