La Belle Vie - St. Tropez For SS24
We haven’t landed in the desert, skyscrapers have been left behind and the London Underground is but a distant memory. Spring, Summer and St. Tropez.
We tapped into the aspirational world of D+D. Setting our sights on what the ‘end goal’ could feasibly be. Pitching up alongside St. Tropez’ finest, from motoring royalty to the those at ease, enjoying the Mediterranean climate. A new season at DUKE + DEXTER calls for another heart-throb location, obviously.
Track time is just as important as living in the moment. Spending a week surrounded by sand and food on par with the natural beauty of Southern France, celebrating everything it means to live life in a locale that fails to age. A timeless aesthetic as far as the eye can see. We shouldn’t have left the ‘80s, really.
To find the inspiration behind SS24 at DUKE + DEXTER, you must immerse yourself in the vineyards of St. Tropez’ Provence wine region, relax upon wicker chairs before venturing into the fishing town itself. Passing orange trees and vintage French posters in transit, showcasing the Wilde Orange Penny Loafer, Moulin and Champagne Printed capsule, the return of Rattan detailing and a first appearance for embroidery in all of its glory.D+D has never been about footwear alone.
We’re all about the story, too. The metaphorical blurb attached to the vamp, sole or lacing of each pair.Just something to remember, SS24 marks a new chapter for DUKE + DEXTER, our legitimate friends and real family.
