Sézane joining forces with New Balance for a sneaker collaboration might have surprised shoppers who know the French label for its stable of button-up cardigans and double-buckled Mary Janes. But within the halls of Sézane's Paris office, teaming up seemed almost inevitable.
"On any given day, you’ll find a handful of New Balance sneakers walking through our Paris headquarters—each worn in a way that reflects the individuality of the person wearing them," Morgane Sézalory, Sézane founder and creative director, tells Marie Claire. "Some embrace the casual ease, pairing them with denim from head to toe. Others elevate them with a tailored trouser and blazer."
