WEAR LEMONADE #15 SKIRT LILA
Hello my little cats!
It's time to launch the new and last piece in this year's collection, the Lila skirt ! Ah, the Lila skirt, you've seen it since the beginning of December, because Laure and I have really been wracking our brains! For the next collection, it'll be a year since Wear Lemonade and that we've been making clothes! So many birthdays these days, and what a lovely adventure! It's so great to set our own rules, we're learning so much, I literally die of stage fright every time we launch, with a ton of unanswered questions: Should we show you more beforehand? Do more Save The Dates? Show more Backstages? Will you like the collection? I feel like we're constantly looking for answers! Even though I'm starting to feel the stress of the launch, it's always a first time, so I'd like to introduce you to Lila, our latest "A" to be adopted as a matter of urgency, because as you'll see, we don't have astronomical quantities!
For this skirt, I had in mind the looks of Anna Karina in a Jean Luc Godard film... The important thing was to give it that retro yet easy-to-wear look that would suit everyone, without it being yet another buttoned-up skirt. I wanted a trapeze cut that stood on its own, but with curves and a beautiful line. I imagined it to be high-waisted but not too long, so Laure, with her fairy fingers, shaped it into a tulip, with the sides shorter than the front and back, to reveal just the right amount! The side buttonhole gives her that first-class wallet look we're so fond of at the studio, and with her New Wave-inspired look, Lila will be your best buddy for spring, we promise!
The Lila skirt is available in two colors in red Bouche Mordue at 89€, there are about twenty of them! This variation is made from 100% silk with a cotton percale lining. The silk ottoman is a material we found at the drapers near our studio and dyed in this deliriously vibrant color. I love this silk, it's a striated material a bit like grosgrain but fabric version, a material that's becoming rare and complicated to manufacture, and sadly endangered!
And Lila Bleu de Tes Yeux at 79€ in raw denim, it's a great way to revisit the trapeze skirt. It's sure to become your summertime darling, as it'll go with everything from a shirt tied above the waist to a little polo tucked inside... it'll be the skirt of your vacations, but also the skirt of back-to-school, and of course the skirt for those days when you're short of inspiration... We've slipped you a little card with two tips for keeping the denim color as good as new or, on the contrary, washing it out at home!
A little tip for choosing your size! Measure yourself and take your waist size, as this is where the skirt will be positioned. Don't forget that your waistline can change as the day goes on, so we advise you to go around your waist with the tape measure, breathe in and out, and look at the measurement again. If you're between sizes, we recommend you go up a size. Don't hesitate to check the sizing chart or ask us for advice - that's what we're here for!
And as good news never comes alone, the famous Sonia tee-shirt is now online! The Sonia heart Amour Fou and the Sonia eyelash Beau Regard are also on line to perfect your lemon look, at a price of 35 euros! I'll tell you more about Sonia in a look very soon, but you know at the studio, we cultivate the art of twisting basics, reworking cuts to make them flattering and feminine... For this cuddly little tee, Laure and I went to Portugal to choose the softest jersey and supervise the embroidery workshops to sign these Sonias with our bouclette embroidery, our exclusive heart and our eyelashes, the absolute darlings of this collection - you'll be hooked from the first caress, and crazy about its loose yet sexy cut thanks to its scoop neckline and kimono sleeves... I'm also delighted to announce that the Dalida scarf is back in stock, so hurry, it won't be long!
And to top it all off, for the T-shirts, if you fall for both Sonia Amour Fou + Sonia Beau Regard you'll save 15€ with the promo code LEMONADECOMBO! See you tomorrow for Lila's pattern!
A big kiss!
