Spring—Summer 2026 · Lookbook N°07

La femme
en mouvement

A collection drawn in motion — air-light tailoring, sun-faded silks, and the quiet architecture of a single line. Photographed in Milano, at first light.

01 — The Collection

Four looks, one gesture.

Each piece begins as a single line on paper, then finds its weight in the hand. Cut to move, not to pose.

01
Le Trench

Double-breasted silk faille, unlined. A coat that behaves like a whisper.
02
La Robe

Bias-cut crêpe de chine, a single seam from shoulder to hem.
03
Le Manteau

Wool-silk suiting in saffron, softened at the shoulder, sharp at the cuff.
04
La Chemise

Washed poplin, mother-of-pearl. The most borrowed piece in the house.

All pieces are cut to order in our 11ᵉ atelier. Allow four to six weeks; we find anticipation is part of the pleasure.

02 — The Atelier

An education in restraint.

We remove until only the essential remains — then we make that essential beautiful.

Maison Élan was founded in a courtyard on Rue de Sévigné with three pattern tables and a stubborn belief: that a garment should be finished before it is embellished. Four decades later, our première main still pins each toile by hand, and every button is chosen by one person, under one lamp.
