Current Obsession: Ruffian-Anthropologie collaboration
This week, Anthropologie introduced Mise En Scene, a capsule collection by hip label Ruffian. The luxe, ladylike pieces seem straight out of Belle de Jour, the iconic 1967 film that starred Catherine Deneuve as a wife-turned-prostitue who ran around Paris in an amazing wardrobe designed by Yves Saint Laurent.
Though not exactly the cheap-chic accessibility of Target’s Go! collaboration, Mise En Scene’s prices — $188 for a quilted velvet jacket, $248 for a mod day dress, $328 for a gorgeous swing coat — are well below Ruffian’s normal cost. We’ve got our eye on the fabulous tights. Only $38, and just the thing our legs need to get through this chilly, rainy spell. —Betsy Lowther
