Chapter 6 : Nuptiale
"Nuptiale" [adj.] — the suspended moment of a commitment made by two.
Born from the very first Bourrienne Paris X collection, Nuptiale has become an icon. Inspired by a vintage detachable collar, we meticulously recreated it — from the precise break of the collar to the exact placement of the buttons. Its success led to the creation of its feminine counterpart: Amazone.
NUPTIALE REINVENTED
Reimagined over the seasons in various colors and fabrics, Nuptiale reveals its full versatility. First designed in Navy poplin, it later embraced deep black as part of a capsule collection inspired by the world of musicians.
SIGNATURE DETAILS
THE HIGH COLLAR
It was in a Parisian vintage market that an old detachable starched collar caught the eye of our Maison’s founder, Cécile Faucheur. An antique piece with precise lines, a subtle break, and impeccable structure.
Carefully studied in the atelier — from proportions and button placement to the curve of the collar — it became the defining feature of the Nuptiale model. A high collar, both graphic and romantic, that enhances the neckline and lends a singular elegance to the person who wears it.
THE BOURRIENNE CUT
We created the Bourrienne cut to offer a new silhouette in shirting, inspired by the romantic volumes of the past. A series of gathers at the back panel adds movement and ease. Our signature fit.
THE EMBRODERIES
The Maison chooses to embroider its logo tone-on-tone, in white on white, as well as on the swallow detail. Similarly, the name of the model is embroidered inside the right cuff.
