Inspired by Seaside Towns in Italy and France



"This spring/summer season, I'm focusing on pants as a base, incorporating clean colors and delicate materials. I want to create a refined look with a ladylike touch," says Chiaki Takahashi, buyer for Adam et Ropé. She presents styling inspired by seaside towns in Italy and France.


The outfit pairs a white sleeveless knit from The Row with white sarouel pants, also from The Row. To add an accent to this otherwise cohesive look, a high-quality black leather blouson was added.


"Since the overall coordination is based on white, even when using similar colors, it's important to balance them by considering the nuances of different materials. Also, because many pieces have a relaxed, enveloping silhouette that incorporates air, I've introduced black leather items as a sharp accent. When dealing with loose silhouettes, pairing with heels is key to maintaining a polished look."


She also highlighted cropped pants as a must-have item this season. "The materials are delicate and soft cotton or linen. The sarouel pants from The Row in this styling are a great example, but I also recommend linen pants from 120% Lino in Italy or patterned pants from Laurence Doligé in France."

For a more sophisticated look, try incorporating a Panama hat. "We have a rich selection of brands, including Borsalino, Maison Michel, and the Ecuadorian brand Sensi Studio."
