Frame and Alexandra Leclerc Unveil Monaco-Inspired 21-Piece Capsule

Frame’s latest collaboration with Alexandra Leclerc reads less like a souvenir from the Riviera and more like a sincere attempt to codify a summer uniform for women who want polish without effort. Built around 21 pieces, the capsule leans into the kind of dressing that feels native to Monaco, fitted jeans, sculpted dresses, snug tanks, capri pants and sharply cut jackets, all filtered through Frame’s signature mix of California ease and Paris sophistication. The result is distinct because it is not trying to sell fantasy first. It is trying to sell repeat wear.

Leclerc, described by WWD as an influencer, art curator and wife of Ferrari Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc, has become the collection’s most convincing muse because the clothes appear to come from an actual life on Le Rocher, not a mood board. She has said she wears Frame constantly around Monaco and wanted the collaboration to reflect her everyday style there, which gives the capsule a credibility many celebrity tie-ins lack. Instead of dressing her as a red-carpet version of herself, Frame has tapped into the softer codes of private jet-set refinement, the easy uniform of lunch, dinner and late afternoon in the same wardrobe.

The strongest pieces are the ones that could move from coast to city without losing composure. The Leo denim pant, priced at $248, is the clearest example, elongated and low-slung but still anchored enough to read as considered rather than nostalgic. The Casino Top and Casino Capri push the same idea in a red-and-white set that feels sharper than standard resort separates. The Monaco Mini Dress, listed at $398, and the Joyride Cardi also sit in the useful middle ground, wearable enough for repeat outings, special enough to justify the collaboration. At the top end, The Alexandra Leather Trench at $1,998 is the kind of statement investment that gives the capsule its backbone, while The Leather Rouge, the Lucky Silk Scarf and the Monte Carlo Sweatshirt and Sweatshort widen the mood from polished daywear to off-duty luxury.

Not every piece carries the same staying power. The Le Rocher pet bandana, at $78, tilts more toward lifestyle accessory than wardrobe pillar, and the sweatshorts read closer to vacation fantasy than old-money uniform. But that divide is part of the point. Frame is testing whether European summer dressing can become a lasting language of understated wealth, not just a marketing gloss for beach clubs and hotel terraces. The answer, here, lies in the tailoring, the restraint and the quiet confidence of clothes that look equally at home in Monaco, Miami Beach or a city apartment with the curtains drawn against the heat.

The launch itself reinforced that positioning. Frame and Leclerc marked the collection with an intimate dinner at Casa Tua Miami Beach during Miami Grand Prix weekend, with guests including Hailey Bieber and Kim Petras. Coming after Frame’s late-2025 menswear collaboration with The Society Archive, a nostalgic nod to American prep, the Leclerc capsule signals a sharper turn toward European glamour, and a more persuasive claim on the old-money wardrobe.
