In Margaret's Closet

Our co-founder, Margaret, is a self-professed shoe girl at heart—a trait she’s undoubtedly passed down to her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Georgina, who loves playing dress-up in her mom’s wardrobe. We spent an afternoon with Margaret in her closet—which brims with beloved DÔEN pieces from the earliest days of starting the brand, plus countless vintage shoes and bags she’s collected over the years on trips to Paris and beyond—and caught a glimpse into how she’s styling a few of her favorite Fall looks.

A Sixties Spark

The croc-embossed leather of our Riviera Boot lends a bit of unexpected edge to one of our favorite pairings—the Chieri wool mini skirt and a silky collared blouse like the Juliana.

MARGARET’S PICK

A Sultry T-Strap

A tiny black short like the eyelet Arbre feels primed for a seasonal switch-up when teamed with a paper-thin turtleneck like the Atta. Margaret added one of her signature styling moves, a sheer sock—we love Wolford or Falke—to this suede kitten heel for a night-out look.

MARGARET’S PICK

Equestrian Influence

Texture play at its finest: the sweetness of the ’30s-inspired floral Chanson Dress is grounded by adding on a richly-hued suede jacket and the Illaria, our take on a classic riding boot.

Finishing Touches

From a raspberry beret (“At last count, I have seven,” says Margaret) to a croc-embossed leather belt that looks as great with dark jeans as it does to cinch the waist of a flowy dress, a few of Margaret's favorite accessories to experiment with…
