Preppy Parisian Collaborations

Carven and Petit Bateau Pair Up for Chic Capsule Collection

French brands Carven and Petit Bateau teamed up for a limited edition capsule collection.

Carven is a fashion house geared toward a preppy audience and has always been a company centered on uniforms. Petit Bateau is a brand that prides itself on comfort and quality materials. Combining both of these brands to form a capsule collection is a flawless fit.

The capsule collection is made up of gamine tops, shift dresses, polo shirts, onesies and detachable collars. All of the garments are sleek, structured, simple in design and uptight looking. The most surprising piece in the lot is an unusual detachable collar that can be worn under a shirt or on its own as a sort of statement necklace.

The Carven and Petit Bateau collection is a put together and classic representation of French sophistication.
