Style Theory: The breton is a pretty remarkable piece of clothing, introduced by Coco Chanel in her 1917 'Nautical Collection' after she spotted the style on a french sailor, and since it's popularity has waivered. It is the perfect go to item, it covers all eventualities from the schoolrun to an evening out on the town. I have an ongoing love affair with the breton..I wrote a Breton feature for Good Housekeeping detailing three ways to wear a bretons and here they are..
First, the smart look with a twist of nautical..
Love these trousers, they are so flattering and skim over hips and tummy, they give you a waist and makes legs look longer..win win. Add a chunky poloneck sweater in the winter for chic style.
For a 'dressy' occasion....
There is nothing more girly than a tulle skirt, the breton 'grounds' the look taking it down a notch and making it look more casual.
The breton sweater..
A breton jumper is a year around outfit staple, wear with denim shorts, skinny jeans or black jeans and boots in the winter, an indispensable item in your wardrobe.
I love a breton..how do you wear yours? As always I would love to hear your thoughts and comments, until next time Fran xx
The Good Housekeeping feature is here - would love you to take a look xxxx
Love these outfits, they all look very classy. I have a few Bretons and wear them all the time. I need a sweater one though and this one is gorgeous.
