Long Weekend Looks
For those of us planning an escape for this long weekend, we’ve put together this mood board to help get you in the mood!. At the core, in our Jac Cadeaux tradition, are just a few timeless pieces that can be interchanged. Example: a plain tee looks great with a cardi or jacket. New Bermuda shorts with a flattering knee length are designed as semi-casual attire which can be dressed up or down. They pair so easily with a stripe top and throw on a tan slide and bag to finish the look.While on the subject of long weekends...

Brigitte Turns 91
We wish a joyeux anniversaire to Brigitte Bardot, who turns 91 on Sunday. Brigitte is a living symbol of the French Riviera – both as a young starlet lounging seaside in stripes or a simple tee, and now as one of the longest established residents of the seaside haven of Saint- Tropez.

Rebonjour Brigitte
Our beloved Brigitte cotton dress is back this season in a white base and navy stripe (above). You’ve probably guessed that for this piece, we took inspiration from Brigitte Bardot who wore this style of casual dress on the French Riviera. The Brigitte features a hem that falls to the knee and has a soupçon (5%) of elastane in the fabric to keep its shape and comfort. The just-released white base/blue stripe pictured above has three-quarter-length sleeves. It will be joined next week by two other colourways: red base with white stripe, and mocha with blue stripe....
