No one does elegance quite like the French, which is why we’ll always be checking the sale section of Fursac. The Paris-based label draws heavily from the nation's historic style icons like Alain Delon and Serge Gainsbourg, and we can bet that both would approve of this herringbone design. The subtle stripes do well to bring a soft sense of glamour to its impeccable cut, and the beige shade gives an assured sense of confidence without screaming it.
