Claudia Stahl is the creator of French inspired fashion brand Jac Cadeaux. Claudia lived in Paris for a number of years after inheriting a love of all things French from her mother. She went for a year and stayed for five years!
Claudia loves the language and the culture but clearly has been affected by the fashion too. Being there for 5 years, she got to learn the language, to meet and make French friends, travel a lot and study the effortlessly chic French women. We chatted about her experiences and it transported me back to France on and off through our chat.
Claudia described her life in Paris in a little apartment where they could hear the bells of Notre Dame in the 5th, over the road from a Tabac. I just floated away with her as she chatted. Hearing about the fashion as well, French women who would not be overly styled, but would wear what they had in their wardrobe but in a way that had a chic-ness not often seen elsewhere. When Claudia came back to Australia she explored this further and created Jac Cadeaux which provides a classic French style wardrobe. The Breton stripe is a staple (I loved hearing the history of the striped tops that have endured from Claudia too) but there is so much more!
