Constance JablonskiThe Louboutin pumps: Christian Louboutin's red-soled pumps have become synonymous with high fashion. The classic Pigalle pump in black is the go-to stiletto for women across the world.

Since 1871, the label has also stood as the maker of the authentic nautical Breton shirt of the French Naval uniform. Today, the brand is eponymous with nautical stripes, like in the classic Naval II shirt for men and women.

The vintage-style Jockey scarf evokes the look of some of the brand's older equestrian-themed prints.
