Parisian style for men: codes, pieces and fabrics

What is Parisian style for men?

Parisian style for men is elegance without visible effort. It ignores trends and relies on a few well-cut pieces in chosen fabrics. The aim: to look put together without ever overdoing it. It is also the line Lebrun Paris follows. A coat with its collar turned up on a boulevard, one winter morning: that is often where you see it.

The codes of the Parisian wardrobe

The Parisian wardrobe turns on three pieces: the structured wool coat, the fitted jacket without excess, and the pleated trousers that give a man his bearing. Each is chosen for its cut and cloth, never for a logo. That is the principle of quiet luxury.

How to wear it: pleated trousers with a fine knit, the jacket open, the coat on top. Leather shoes, nothing more.

Chosen fabrics, made in France

Parisian style starts with the fabric. Virgin wool, cashmere, cotton: they give the drape and the hold. Every Lebrun Paris piece is designed in Paris and made in France, in a workshop in the Île-de-France region.

Building a Parisian wardrobe

Start with the essentials: a wool coat for winter, a structured jacket for the in-between season, well-cut trousers for every day. Keep to quiet colours: navy, black, grey, camel. Choose fabrics that gain character with time. Next, read our guide to the timeless men's wardrobe and how to choose a men's coat.
