Paris Outfits

Tailored coats, wool knitwear, pleated trousers, leather shoes, and French designer pieces for a trip to Paris.

Paris outfits center on sharp wool coats, sculpted pleats, and supple leather footwear grounded in neutral shades of black and cream. Tailored jackets cut with clean shoulder lines balance fluid trousers to create a steady silhouette built for walking the city.

Rei Kawakubo, a Japanese designer, first showed in Paris in the early eighties with oversized, asymmetric clothes. Issey Miyake studied and worked in Paris before going home to Tokyo. Homme Plisse Issey Miyake, a men's line launched under his name in twenty thirteen, pleats its pieces after they are sewn so they resist wrinkles. Guidi, a tannery founded in Pescia in Tuscany in the late eighteen nineties, dyes its leather boots after they are made.

Wear a wool coat over pleated trousers with leather boots or low sneakers. WDLT117 in Toronto brings Guidi boots and Homme Plisse Issey Miyake pleated trousers and jackets. Utopia in Toronto brings Jordan and Nike sneakers, many of them pre owned, and Due West in Toronto brings coats and jackets from Mackage and Canada Goose.

Common questions

What defines the silhouette of classic Paris outfits?
A fitted wool overcoat worn over relaxed trousers sets the foundational shape. Structured shoulders on top balance wide leg trousers that break cleanly over leather boots.
Which shoes work best for walking in Paris?
Sturdy leather boots like Guidi's handle uneven stone streets well. Low sneakers like Nike Dunks or low Jordans in muted colours also work under tailored pants.
How did Japanese designers influence modern Parisian dress?
When Rei Kawakubo first showed in Paris, her clothes were oversized and asymmetric, and her next shows there were mostly black and left unfinished on purpose. Issey Miyake trained in Paris and later built lines on permanent pleats, including Pleats Please Issey Miyake and Homme Plisse Issey Miyake.
