Mother's Day Moodboard
FV Through the Generations
As Mother’s Day quickly approaches, we wanted to take the time to acknowledge the special moms in our lives who inspire much of what we do today. As we say here at FV, behind every stylish woman is an even more stylish mother.
Frances Valentine Co-Founder & CEO, Elyce Arons, has always been inspired by her mother, from how she spoke, to how she held herself, and of course to how she dressed. This lasting memory of Elyce’s mother's style has transformed over time and come to fruition through the clothing you see today. Many of your favorites and FV Essentials have been inspired by Elyce’s mother.
“I LOVE THIS PHOTO FROM THE ’60S WITH MY MOM IN A CLASSIC FISHERMAN SWEATER . IT REMAINS ONE OF MY CLOSET STAPLES AND WILL BE IN THE MIX FOREVER.”
In the style of staying snug, the Fisherman Wool Sweater is a tried and true companion. Elyce sought to re-create the iconic look for Frances Valentine featuring leather-covered contrast buttons plush and cozy lambswool and a flatter folded shirt collar. This sweater quickly stole our hearts and has become an FV Essential.
“My mother has always been so chic and such an inspiration. Our Bella dress is inspired by her darling little cinched waist dresses.”
It goes without saying that a black dress is a staple in every woman's closet. As Elyce’s mother shows us, with her feminine and classic look, it all comes down to the silhouette. Our Bella dress features strategic pleating under the waist and a detachable belt for a striking figure that is simultaneously powerful and romantic.
“I love this photo of my mom, my sister Willow, and me. My mom is wearing a classic blazer, with that big 70’s style collar and ginormous sunglasses!”
Some may argue the blazer is back in style, but here at FV, it never went out. Elyce’s mother shows us how good taste will always beat the test of time (and trends). With a pop of personalized styling, a simple blazer can be transformed into a look for the books. Our Elle Blazer is that perfect top layer that will keep you suited for success for years to come.
