Anatomy of a look: Isabelle Huppert, actress

Oscar nominee Isabelle Huppert proves her sartorial mettle in this Armani Privé ensemble. 

We break down her lovely, laissez-faire look.

GET OVER IT 

A classic overcoat pulls everything together. Slung over jeans, a beaded skirt or a suit, it boasts equal parts purpose and potential. Top tip? Try & Other Stories for sharp tailoring at peerless prices.

Wool trenchcoat, & Other Stories, €195

Not everyone can pull off periwinkle sheen; unless, of course, you’re Ms Huppert.

Dialing down the bridesmaid connotations with a navy and black colour combo makes pastel a go-to for those of a more considered disposition. Top marks.

Gucci stretch-wool flared pants, Net-a-Porter, €690

PUMP IT UP 

Sore feet are up there with cancelled flights — aggravating and inconvenient. That said, a great pair of heels means you can walk away.

Isabelle’s classic single sole pump is a perfect example. Not too high, not too low — just right. pump, & Other Stories, €89
