Noir Dept. combines classic lines with modern versatility. Muted colours in chocolate brown, sand beige, olive green and black form the base of a wardrobe that adapts to every day without giving up character.

The Ribbed Knit Polo in black and the Tech Pantalon form the strongest starting point. Clean, technical and effortless to combine.

For anyone who wants more: the striped Knit Polo is the eyecatcher of the collection, worn with white trousers, tailored trousers or a twin-set short from the collection.

Every piece works alone. Everything works together.

How to wear Noir Dept.

The collection is built around one principle: keep the palette muted and let the cut do the work. A black ribbed knit polo over sand beige trousers is the easiest way in, and works just as well at the office as on a terrace.

Want more contrast? Then the striped Knit Polo is the piece to build from. Combine it with white trousers for the summery variant, or with dark trousers if you want to keep it calmer.
