A recent, life-altering closet purge started my year with a slap into reality that I didn’t know I needed. As a fashion editor, it’s a part of my job to dress the part—which includes trying out new trends and adding new pieces to my closet almost constantly. But what it resulted in for me was a closet full of things I needed to donate, that I wore once and, frankly, forgot about.
It’s natural that when you have things in your closet that you really love, you reach for them more often. For me, those pieces consist of about 25% of my closet, and the rest come out once a season or get avoided entirely. I made a pact to myself that in 2022, my cycle was coming to a halt. This would be the year I made purchases strategically, and chose to invest in high-quality pieces that not only will last, but that are unique and beautiful enough that I reach for them time and time again. And the first place I went to to start accomplishing it? Sézane.
Sézane’s mission is simple: to create pieces that are meant to be worn forever, at a price that’s accessible. They want their pieces worn today to become vintage in the future, which means that they outlive trends and can be worn every single season. They’re the kinds of pieces that you can’t wear out of the house without someone stopping and asking, “Where did you get that?”
As a long-time lover of Sézane, I knew I could turn to them to fill the gaps I had created through my closet clean out, and that they would make sure the pieces I added are ones that made it into my constant rotation. And it isn’t hard to see why. These are the pieces I have my eye on to add to my capsule wardrobe in 2022.
