Co-founder Stephanie Danan has recently made the move to Paris, embracing her dual American-French identity in her approach to fashion. Her focus on balancing distinction, wearability, and nonchalance is evident in her latest pre-fall collection, where she explores the intersection of volume and the timeless Parisienne style.
This season, Danan plays with the contrast between oversized silhouettes and the classic masculine/feminine aesthetic. Slouchy cargo pants paired with breezy shirts, boiler suits with exaggerated shoulders, and roomy suiting pieces showcase the emphasis on volume. Leather bombers add a sense of protection and comfort in uncertain times, reflecting the current mood of the world.
On the more feminine side, Danan incorporates tiers of ruffles in billowing trenches and black skirts, as well as body-skimming black dresses with unique details like one-shoulder styles and batwing sleeves. The collection’s color palette is described as “digestible and easy to wear,” with pops of maximalist prints like camo and plaids in lightweight fabrics for a modern twist.
Co’s sales have seen significant growth in the past year, appealing to customers on both sides of the Atlantic and beyond. The brand is set to make its debut at Paris Fashion Week in March, marking a new chapter in its minimalist yet innovative approach to design. With a foundation in distinctive dressing with a twist, Co’s future direction promises to be exciting and full of possibilities.
Stay tuned to see where Co’s unique blend of American and French influences takes the brand next as it continues to evolve and captivate fashion enthusiasts worldwide.
