Winter in Paris: & Other Stories

Winter is most definitely on its way along with the weather warnings, and as it gets colder and everyone’s layering up, it’s increasingly hard to find something “unique” without five other people you know already having it. That is where alternative, but equally stunning brands like & Other Stories come into, well, the story.

The company offers women a wide range of shoes, bags, accessories, beauty and ready-to-wear ranges, all complementing their personal style, and giving that little something extra. They don’t just copy whatever the shop next to them is doing, but work in Paris and Stockholm to design striking collections that don’t just pay attention to detail, but cause customers’ hearts to skip a beat, and not when they’re looking at the price tag.

Their newest story, Winter in Paris, is aimed at preparing for the celebrations of gift-giving in the most cherished time of year. In the Paris atelier with designer Colombe and stylist Tekla, “effortlessly chic styles” were created to complement the natural beauty of this time of year. Following the colours of nature, monochrome notes accented with dashes of bright vibrant red give an eccentric yet relaxed style to the season. The variation of textures and mixture of styles including pleats and ruffles accompanied with cat eyes, red lips and chandelier earrings set the perfect fairytale ending to any classic winter story, the moral being timeless femininity. 

Rest assured that the Winter in Paris theme is foolproof with the focus not only on the clothing, but also everything that binds it together, whether it’s lingerie or footwear, all helping to create another story in your life, reflecting your personality throughout.

Not only does & Other Stories focus on beautiful masterpieces, but they also consider the environment in all of their work. They are gradually converting their company to become more energy efficient and sustainable for the future; however, when taking the future of the world into account, they do not compromise on the standard of their items.

& Other Stories is a beautiful brand, with equally beautiful morals behind it, believing that when a woman cares for her fashion and style, the best possible solution would be to cherish that and personalise it through individual clothing that doesn’t make her pretend to be something she’s not, but celebrates and accentuates everything about her. So when layering up this winter, why don’t you do it Parisian style, and make your own story…
