The house as the home team
A Paris house borrows the oldest device of the American campus and keeps it almost entirely plain. Navy, cream and one word do all the work. It is varsity reduced to its graphic essentials, and all the more wearable for it.
Best for: Celine collectors; relaxed navy varsity wardrobes

Celine's loose varsity jacket from the 21AW season, reference 2V08F896C: navy wool throughout, the house name set across the back in bold cream letters, and navy and cream stripes at every rib. Tagged 50, made in Italy.
The Piece
The back carries the design. CELINE runs straight across the shoulder blades in thick cream capitals with a raised, textured face, set high and centred on an otherwise plain navy field. It reads like a team name, and that is the point.
The front is spare and exact: navy snaps from collar to hem, two slanted welt pockets, no chest patch. The rib at collar, cuffs and hem is knitted in navy with twin cream stripes, and the body is cut loose through the chest, as the name of the model promises. Inside, a smooth navy rayon lining, with cotton pocket bags.
Under Hedi Slimane the varsity jacket became one of Celine's defining menswear shapes, and this loose cut is its quieter, logo-led form.
