The Timeless Elegance of Paris: The Story Behind Chez Nous

There is something about Paris that has always inspired me the elegance, the history, and the effortless way French women have approached personal style.

The 1930s and 1940s were an extraordinary period in Parisian fashion. Jewelry was an important part of a woman’s wardrobe: pearls, beautiful earrings, brooches, and timeless pieces that could transform even the simplest ensemble.

What I love most is that the elegance never felt as though it needed to be excessive. A beautiful pair of earrings. A strand of pearls. One special necklace. Pieces chosen with intention and worn again and again.

That philosophy feels very much like Nanette Collections.

The Inspiration Behind Chez Nous

Chez Nous means “at home” in French, and that sentiment became the heart of this collection.

I wanted to create a collection inspired by Paris that still feels completely at home in a modern woman’s wardrobe beautiful pieces that can be worn with a crisp white shirt, a favorite black dress, a tailored jacket, or simply jeans and a sweater.

Each piece was personally curated with that idea in mind: timeless rather than trendy, feminine without being fussy, and elegant enough to make an everyday moment feel a little more special.

A Little Paris, Wherever You Are

You don’t need a Paris address to belong there.

Chez Nous is an invitation to bring a little of that effortless French elegance into your own life to choose pieces you love, wear them your way, and make them part of your story.

Timeless. Elegant. Every day.
