The Social Sunday Women

Can the useful be pleasant, too? Long relegated to the back of our closets due to its association with "letting oneself go," loungewear is making a long-overdue comeback thanks to labels who understand how to make comfort rhyme with elegance. Among them, we find The Social Sunday, whose sweatpants, coats, sweatshirts, and quilted boots are the kind of must-haves we've been lusting over lately. Founded in Italy in 2021, this women's ready-to-wear brand has been surfing the post-lockdown wave, a time when work and play clothes are no longer so categorically separate, and where indeed the two blend to make for surprising looks. Here we find mix-and-match loungewear classics, updated with clean lines and eco-friendly fabrics. Wool, cashmere, organic cotton, and recycled polyester combine for results that are the perfect balance of upscale and sporty. Not satisfied to simply provide wardrobe standbys, the label also includes holistic touches through their use of lithotherapy, or, quite simply, crystals. Attached to the drawstrings on the hooded sweatshirts, these crystals and charms make each garment totally customized and are available at our Haussmann, Deauville, Marseille, and Toulon locations. For charms, pick from a choice of all the letters of the alphabet, a sun, moon, star, or heart, in aged gold alloy. As for the crystals, each of the seven options boasts specific healing qualities: tiger's eye for happiness, howlite for patience and serenity, rose quartz for self-love, amethyst for inner balance, jasper for strength and self-control, and hyalin quartz to amplify energy. With garments available in seven different colors - one for each day of the week - these separates, plus warm coats and quilted jackets, form the foundation of a wardrobe that's nothing if not flexible: perfect for work, brunch, a Sunday afternoon stroll, or a quick shopping trip. These cozy cocoons are full of good vibes, and guarantee that you'll feel great inside and out.
