    Sézane takes us to Italy in their summer collection dubbed, “Andiamo!” which translates to, “Here we go”. INDEED! With Sézane we are always in for a ride. If you’ve purchased from this brand before you know how quickly everything sells out leaving you in the dust if you’re not ready. I have a video about my favourite online shopping tips and they will help you with this collection release on Wednesday May 2. View the video here but my number one tip is to BE READY with what you want and what size. Sézane likes to get us excited by releasing the look book a few days before the collection is on sale but this also helps us decide what to purchase for the season!

    What the Look Book tells You

    Style Name

    The style name of this gorgeous dress is called, “Nova”. This is helpful when shopping for it the day of the release. I suggest making a list of your favourites and when the collection is released to use their search bar to find your item right away and “quick add” it to your cart in the size you need. Knowing the name is also useful if they’ve made the style before and a simple google search will show you more pictures and people wearing the item.

    Colour

    The Nova here is shown in black but it’s also available in Ecru and Raspberry. This will help you decide on if the dress may be right for you based on colour. Are you a bride who wants a white dress for your rehearsal dinner? This is probably going to be a great option! These are all the same colours that the lace blouse, “The Ninon” came in and googling that will give you a better idea of the colours. You can see the Ninon in Raspberry here at the top of the page. Gorgeous right?

    Size

    In the description box they tell you that this fits small so choose a larger size. This advice is usually true in my experience with Sézane. They recommend the same size change for the blouse, Abby, which I own and I have it in size 4 my true size which is a little snug so a size 6 would also be perfect on me.


    Watch my Shopping Online with Sézane video for a few more tips and what to do when your items sells out- don’t worry there’s still hope!


    The Video

    Sézane released a video this time! They usually have video footage of their gorgeous collection but it’s usually leaked out slowly via their instagram stories so this is a treat! We get to see quick clips of their gorgeous items, how they move, and better details.


    My Picks of the Collection *UPDATED

    The Clare Dress in Cashmere Print

    When the Clare dress first came out in the spring collection it was in an all white eyelet cotton. I thought it was gorgeous but wished there was a printed version. VOILA! For some reason I’m obsessed with long dresses this year and this is one I would absolutely love to add to my collection.

    Dolores Knitwear in Tobacco

    Sézane makes so many versatile clothing pieces, usually sweaters and blouses you can wear two ways, and it’s my favourite thing to buy from them. The ties on this top look adjustable so I’m wondering if this is another versatile piece! If adjustable this top would probably work as well on the shoulders as it does on. The Tobacco colour is my favourite.

    The Julia Dress

    It’s back! The Julia dress originally appeared in the Pre-Spring collection in a navy with white polka dots and sold out in 2 seconds. It came back in a red print which was my personal favourite because the fabric was cotton.The elegant midi-length and super flattering elastic-waist made this a favourite and Sézane is so good to bring it back! NOW it’s in the Tobacco with white polka dots in what looks like the same material as a couple other items including the Anya Blouse. If between sizes choose the larger one. I’ve seen that if this isn’t the proper size the keyhole back gapes open more.

    The Louisa Dress

    Another popular dress is back! The Louisa dress first came in black and pink and I think it’s stunning in the green. Sézane has done almost all of their sandals in a gold and green and metallic are just a smart match! Take a look at the details of the original to see how sweet and beautiful this dress really is. If between sizes choose the larger one.

    The Augusta Dress in Striped Ecru/Multico

    I’m soooo excited to see this dress back and it what looks like the prettiest fabric! This is definitely my number one pick from this collection. The Augusta dress is from their Spring Collection seen here and has sold out quickly! Striped Ecru/Multico looks like a textured cotton fabric with satin ribbon-like stripes running vertically. Sézane suggests that you go down a size if you’re in between sizes and it’s been my experience to go down a size regardless of whether you’re in between.

    The Aure Dress is Blue/Leaves print.

    This is such a pretty dress! The Aure is a style they keep bringing back in new prints and this one is so sweet and perfect for summer! It’s been sold out in the green flowers print and the large saffron flowers pattern and the new sweet print puts a great spin on this well-loved style. I love how they accessorized it with the gold jewelry.  It’s perfect for a sunny holiday or just grabbing an ice cream cone. Choose a larger size if between sizes.

    The Caitlin Dress in Ocean Blue

    This is the dress version of the Bea blouse which I tried on during my New York Sézane visit and it’s so pretty! I love the square neckline and the light cotton fabric will keep you cool in the summer. This photo shows the white with embroidered flower version but scroll down to the Abby to see the Ocean Blue print! This fits large so go down a size.

    Sezane Abby Blouse in Ocean Blue

    This print was available at the NYC store (see my NYC Sézane shopping video here) and I was so curious because I had never seen it before! It makes sense now that it’s part of their brand new summer collection! It’s even dreamier in person with a woven metallic thread making up a checked pattern. Besides the Ocean Blue, it will also be available in Ecru, Lurex checks (excuse me? Sounds amazing!), Big black flowers, Cashmere print, Ecru/blue stripes, Ruby. I own it in the cashmere print seen in the video here. This fits small so go up a size.

    Sezane Adelie Blouse in Ecru Multico stripes.

    This gorgeous one-shoulder blouse is another style they are continuing from their spring collection. I tried on the gorgeous Large saffron flowers print in NYC (see video here *enter timecode) and it is so much fun! You’ll see me dance around in it-  so pretty. It’s coming back in so many fun colours! Along with the Large Saffron flower print, it will be available in Ecru embroidered ecru-black gingham (pictured), AND Ecru multico stripes which you can see in the Augusta dress above. This blouse fits true to size.

    *The Nova Dress in Black or Raspberry

    I mentioned this dress above as the example but it’s the first one that caught my eye. I have the Ninon blouse from Sézane and the lace is exquisite. I have every bit of faith that this dress will be the same. And if the raspberry colour is anything like the Ninon’s it’s going to be stunning.

    The Lua Blouse in Tobacco

    The Tabacco colour is one of my favourites from Sézane! It’s a rich colour that is perfect for the summer. This off-the-shoulder blouse is beautiful and full of beautiful details. Take a look at the lace print and the petite ball fringe at the end of the frills. I’m excited to see this blouse in that colour! Choose your usual size in this top.

    Anegada Basket

    How fun is this bag? This basket bag originally appeared in the Spring collection with the lemon print and it’s so cute! It immediately sold out and the cherry will definitely go the same way. It looks like the lemon print will be back as well so get it while you can!

    Martin Low Sandals

    Braided sandals are classic so I think these will always be in style! I love the subtle scallop shape and the colour pairs so well with all of your summer clothing. I love it paired with white as seen on the model above. The adjustable back strap is perfect for those in between sizes (me!) as Sezane doesn’t do half sizes. This looks like the perfect summer shoe.

    Embroidered Tomboy Shirt

    This shirt is just in time for Mother’s Day! Their tomboy style is one of their popular styles that they always have. Be classic and cool on Mother’s day this year. This shirt fits small so choose a larger size. Check out their Gift Shop for more mother’s day themed gifts!


    There’s more where that came from!

    These are my picks of the collection but there’s plenty more to see on their site here!

    Happy Shopping!
