Michelle

Michelle – Wool and Silk Motoring Coat

When motoring was an adventure, motoring coats protected travellers from wind, rain and cold while preserving their elegance. In the early twentieth century, cars were often open and roads were poorly surfaced. Michelle takes direct inspiration from these historic designs, with a protective cut, generous collar and functional details adapted for children today.

A forgotten detail that remains indispensable

One of the most remarkable features of the Michelle coat is the integrated loop on the collar that holds a scarf in place. In the days of open-top cars, this system stopped scarves from blowing away in the wind. More than a century later, the detail remains useful: it keeps a scarf in place when children run, play or put their coats back on.

This kind of practical consideration distinguishes a garment designed to be truly worn. Made to move with children, Michelle combines comfort, freedom of movement and lasting elegance.

The coat Priam chose for himself

Some pieces reveal their quality only over time. The Michelle coat accompanied Priam through several consecutive winters. Day after day, walk after walk, it demonstrated what really matters in children’s clothing: freedom of movement, durability, comfort and the ability to remain elegant despite intensive use.

A practical, timeless cut

Its silhouette is designed to protect without restricting movement. It can be worn over everyday clothes or a smarter outfit, and naturally belongs in a family wardrobe built to last.
