Style Mavens, Unite!


Confession. I love Jerome Dreyfuss. His bags are stylishly sexy, embodying that effortless kind of cool so many strive for without ever achieving.

Cool, elegant and composed. It's a French thing.

However, I think what I love most about them is their practicality. Besides being chic, trendy and classic, they are also, usable! The kind of bags that are meant to be worn in everyday life.

By the way, did you know that Jerome Dreyfuss is the husband to uber cool, bohemian designer Isabel Marant? Talk about a stylish couple.

Anyway, back to the point, Jerome Dreyfuss has opened his first store in the United States, and one month ahead of his wife Isabel Marant’s adjacent shop in SoHo.

And just like his bags, the space is big, bright and could use some wear and tear. “I don’t like when things are too new, too clean,” says Dreyfuss. “Go ahead, stomp around in your heels.”

Along with his colorful spring collection, shoppers will find a few past favorites that are exclusive to the store, like the Twee in gray python (right), which is brushed to feel like suede, and later this year, his new capsule collection of leather jackets, thoughtfully designed so each style can be worn in different ways. “I’m having fun making women smile,” he said.

Sigh.
