It’s time to plan your winter sartorial calendar, aided by Citizen Femme’s December 2024 fashion round-up.
Featuring modern jewellery, noteworthy collaborations, and collections to bookmark, our style director’s picks will see you through the season in style.
Sézane and Maria de la Orden have collaborated on a striking winter collection, born from a shared passion for exquisite materials, perfect cuts and exceptional savoir-faire. From bold brocade suiting to pretty knitwear – as well as tactile velvet co-ords and dresses that are perfect for party season and beyond. If you're looking for a mini-me moment, the matching petite Sézane pieces are seriously cute.
Landing just in time for festive styling, Swedish Stockings by Camille Charrière blends functionality, form and fashion to create a capsule that covers all bases; from creating foundational everyday outfits to elevating bolder looks. Drawing inspiration from Camille’s favourite cultural icons, and her long-time appreciation of tights as a foundational piece to elevate her looks, the collection, entitled ‘For the Girls’ showcases the humble pair of tights as a must-have transformative accessory.
Inspired by an heirloom pocket watch, the recently launched ClipT collection blends vintage designs with modern chunky chains, mixed metal detailing and, of course, the T-bar with which Tilly Sveaas has become synonymous. The chunky clips make for a statement design feature, as well as a way to customise through the addition of charms, or even by joining to other chains within the collection for a completely different look. The collection also features the launch of enamel T-bars, which sees the colourful enamel hand-painted onto sterling silver.
First spotted on the runway in September, Erdem's debut handbag has finally landed and, as you'd expect, it's a thing of beauty. The Bloom Bag – so called because of its striking gold-toned flower bud handle – is meticulously crafted from either smooth calfskin leather, or rich velvet, with each handle taking around seven hours to craft by Italian artisans using a traditional wax casting method. Available in a mini and midi size, it marks the celebration of nearly two decades of Erdem's eponymous label.
The daughter of a tailor and menswear designer, tailoring is in Blaize Caprice’s DNA. With a passion for sustainable luxury fashion, her eponymous label is heavily inspired by the craftsmanship and attention to detail found in bespoke menswear. Using only the finest quality fabrics and materials, each garment is hand-crafted from materials sourced directly from close suppliers who share like-minded principles regarding sustainable production. The brand’s signature ‘Irene’ wrap coat (pictured) is hand-sewn with two layers of luxuriously soft cashmere and, like the rest of the collection, is made-to-order in New York City to the highest standard and precision of fine tailoring.
Carolina Herrera has collaborated with Frame for their first ever denim capsule collection. Showcasing five modern silhouettes, the collection fuses Frame's denim expertise with the feminine and tailored world of Carolina Herrera. The bold colour palette is inspired by the explosive colour and vibrancy of Mexico, where the collection made its debut during Carolina Herrera's Resort 2024 runway show in Mexico City.
Allbirds, the B Corp footwear brand known for its innovative use of natural and recycled materials, has teamed up with cult British fashion brand, Shrimps. Including two of Shrimps' bestsellers, the classic Balthasar coat and the mini Antonia bag to compliment the key piece in the collection, the Trail Runner Fluff. Taking elements from both brands DNA, the result is a versatile trainer with Allbirds signature fluffy Merino wool, accentuated by Shrimps' iconic pearl beads.
With stores already in the capital cities of Paris, New York, Tokyo and Seoul, French accessories brand Polène excitingly opened in the heart of London on the 12th December, just in time for Christmas. Located on Regent Street, their first UK store showcases the brand's signature leather goods that combine minamalism and creative expression as well as the newly launched jewellery line. Gilded with 24-carat gold and crafted by artisans in Italy, jewellery takes inspiration from nature with sculpted rock-like textures and undulating movements of the wind.
