Andrew Rizzo French fashion brand Sézane is ramping up for the release of its first-ever New Balance collaboration, giving the new 471 silhouette a luxe makeover featuring premium materials and autumn-ready tones.
Sézane emerged in 2013 under the vision of Morgane Sézalory, who transformed her success reselling and reinventing vintage clothing online into a full-fledged label. Initially launched as one of France’s first digital-native fashion houses, the brand has since expanded internationally with stylish showroom-like boutiques — or “appartements” — in Paris, London, and New York. Its signature look embodies a refined yet approachable take on everyday French elegance: think airy blouses, delicate knits, soft tailoring, and timeless palettes accented by subtle bursts of color.
The New Balance 471, meanwhile, is a fresh retro-inspired silhouette rooted in the brand’s running heritage — somewhat comparable to the Nike Tailwind and other competing models from the 1970s. Sézane’s influence is felt most strongly through the material choices, with the French imprint delivering a cream-colored knit base layer, blue denim “N” logos, and brown, tan, and orange suede across the forefoot and heel, masterfully incorporating multiple signature elements from its catalog.
“With New Balance, we wanted to design a sneaker that carries the effortless spirit of the Parisian wardrobe: refined, versatile, and ready to follow from morning to late night,” says Morgane Sézalory, founder of Sézane.
The Sézane x New Balance 471 will launch globally through Sézane channels before hitting newbalance.com on October 16th, 2025. See official images below if you’re considering copping.
