Resa Sleeveless Fitted Denim Mini Dress

Founded by Judith Milgrom, Maje is a Parisian label with a pendant for preppy garms. Take the Resa: it's a classic piece at first glance, complete with a slightly tapered mini skirt and a fitted outline that nips in at the waist. Peer closer, though, and you'll notice it's cut from stretchy denim. Yep – the brand takes some cues from America's collegiate halls alright. Slip yours on with a pair of ballet courts for sunny strolls along the Seine.

• 98% cotton, 2% elastane

Marrying everyday luxury with a nonchalant elegance, Maje helped popularise the now-iconic 'French' look, and continues to be a touchstone for effortless Parisian style.
