If plans for Paris travels aren’t on the schedule for this year, decking yourself out in Parisian colors can be just as satisfying. Marc Jacobs seems to have a taste of European refinement on his mind this season, offering a fresh lineup of exaggerated silhouettes and streamlined dresses and coats. The Trompe L’oiel dress is a smashing contrast of red and navy, a clean-cut number with an illusion of a waistcoat sewn on the front.

Red ties around the neck come together in the back for a unique twist on a simple pinafore style, and the skinny belt makes it simple to maintain that hourglass figure. Made with a rich wool and nylon blend, this one’s an easy outfit for any semi-formal occasion for the holidays and beyond–no ticket to France required, though it might be cheaper to take that vacation… Find Marc Jacbos Trompe L’oeil for $1,900.
