Celebrating French Icons: Our Marinière & Beret


As we join the world in celebrating 50 years of Paris Fashion Week—an event that has shaped fashion with its innovation, elegance, and artistry—we proudly reflect on the timeless French icons that continue to define style across the globe. Among these quintessential symbols of French fashion, two stand out: the marinière and the beret.

At French Wink, we’ve reimagined these pieces to offer you our own take on French classics. Our marinière—available in white and navy blue—carries not only the signature stripes but also a unique twist: our embroidered wink. This little detail transforms a beloved wardrobe staple into something personal, fun, and undeniably French. Whether paired with denim or layered under a blazer, our marinière is the perfect blend of casual elegance, a look that will always stay in style.

As for the beret, we’ve partnered with the renowned Maison Laulhère to craft an intemporal beret that speaks to both tradition and modernity. With a delicately embroidered heart, it’s this small detail that our customers say makes all the difference here in the U.S. It’s a nod to the authentic **savoir-faire** that Maison Laulhère is known for—steeped in history yet designed for today’s fashion-forward audience.

Our mission? To spread French savoir-faire worldwide, ensuring that these beloved icons continue to grace wardrobes across the globe.

🎉✨ As we toast to the enduring influence of **Paris Fashion Week**, we also celebrate how it continues to breathe life into timeless French fashion staples like the marinière and beret. From Jean Paul Gaultier’s modern marinière to Coco Chanel’s chic interpretations, these pieces have been endlessly reinvented—yet their French essence remains unmistakable.

In 2024, the beret takes center stage once again with Maison Laulhère’s collaboration with Dior, blending heritage with contemporary flair. Here’s to the magic of Paris Fashion Week and the designers who keep pushing boundaries, year after year. Vive la mode française!

Stay tuned as we continue to bring you more of our unique takes on these iconic French designs, spreading a touch of Parisian chic to wardrobes everywhere.
