Cult Parisian label Sézane is having a rare sale right now

This is not a drill: the Sezane sale has started. It's not that often that legendary French brand hosts a sale, but when it does, you can guarantee it's worth your time.

To beat the January blues, the label has opened up its archives to give you a chance to shop some of its bestselling autumn/winter designs, at a fraction of the original cost.

These include knitwear, outerwear, dresses, leather accessories and more, some discounted by up to 50%. Unfortunately, Sézane items are notoriously popular, so if you factor in a sale on top of that, they're likely to sell out even faster. So to avoid any disappointment, if you have your eye on something, click 'checkout' as quickly as you can.

Here are some of my favourite items in the sale.

Just in case you feel a little guilty treating yourself right now, you'll be pleased to hear you're investing in a sustainable fashion brand. At the end of last year, Sézane became one of the first ever French brands to obtain a B CORP certification, thanks to its hard work creating must-have limited quantity items.

Its sustainable developments cover creative, innovative and eco-friendly initiatives, from the choice of production methods, raw materials used and working conditions.
