Until the end, this year has been special. But if we tell you that it has not finished surprising you, do you believe us?
We, who are not used to being photographed, have lent ourselves to the game. For the challenge that it represents, with the desire to inspire you and surprise you too (yes, some looks are not lacking in audacity). Come on, scroll!

• A navy blue work jacket in cotton twill.
• Raw jeans, weathered by time.
• Nubuck Desert Boots.
• An elegant vintage watch.
Can you explain your outfit to us?
" I don't like to look too formal, I'm more of a shirt-wearer, like flannels or denim. But a little over a year ago, Thomas made me discover dobby, a rather formal material but with a real texture. It gave me a taste for more sophistication.
Here, I chose to wear it with rather workwear and dark pieces for a strong contrast. I have a fairly sober style, but I have a lot of fun with textures ."

Tell us about your look?
" I never miss an opportunity to wear a formal shirt. Whether it's to go to a restaurant, to the theater or for parties. Well, this year, I've worn casual shirts more often than formal ones, so even if the end of the year is special, I decided to treat myself with a more sophisticated look.
I love original collars like this club collar that imtely gives a crazy style. I paired it with a gray flannel set that has the advantage of being chic and super comfortable. For accessories, I turned to a burgundy tie and pocket square, which subtly contrast with my derbies.
Pauline, communications manager
• A white shirt with a mandarin collar
• A rust work jacket in Italian wool
• Vintage Klein Blue Pants
• Black leather ankle boots
How do you wear men's shirts?
" I had somewhat abandoned the idea of wearing shirts and my recent arrival at Hast made me rediscover the masculine world, which ultimately fits well with my style! I love the "boyfriend shirt" side of the slightly loose shirt, which I find elegant!
I chose a crisp shirt with a mandarin collar , a delicate model. I wear it with a wool work jacket whose texture I like and my vintage blue pants, a strong piece. And to finish, a pair of black heeled ankle boots, which feminize the look well.
Maxime, customer relations manager
• A premium blue shirt in Easy Iron pinpoint.
• Navy blue pleated trousers, in Italian wool cloth.
• A pair of brown Brogues
• A large watch with a gold dial
Do you often wear formal shirts?
" I admit that since I arrived at Hast, I wear them more and more! Here, I'm wearing my favorite, an Easy Iron pinpoint shirt from Thomas Mason, which has the huge advantage of hardly creasing. I like everything to fit perfectly, so it saves me a lot of headaches (laughs). The other revelation of the year was these pleated pants that I never take off. They're super elegant but at the same time really comfortable. I often wear them with a merino wool sweater and sneakers. Even if the holidays won't be as social this year, I want to get ready and play the French elegance card. "
Emmanuel, logistics manager
• A twill shirt with wide blue stripes.
• A green velvet work jacket.
• A well-worn pair of jeans
• Belledonne white sneakers
A formal shirt with sneakers?
“ Yes, I am living proof that it works wonders in terms of style! I don’t wear formal shirts that often but I can’t let go of my sneakers! And no exception for parties.
For the occasion, I opted for a formal blue striped shirt that I paired with my green velvet jacket, jeans and classic white sneakers: it breaks up the rather sophisticated style of the shirt and brings a casual chic side to the whole thing.
