soignee

1 Fred, one half of the soigne couple from a few episodes back, is making a scene at the bar, yelling at Jake and demanding to see Simone.

2 She was friends with the Swiss writer Fleur Jaeggy, who described her, in a portrait of a summer journey they took in 1971 as “soignee” and smelling of roses and easy with silence.

3 "I wanted my food to have the French touch, to taste 'soignee,' not just indifferently cooked. But there was no book that really taught me how, that is, not until 'Mastering' came along."

4 Not for her the Francophile cliches of café crèmes and bourgeois charm, or the familiar tropes of soignee French Girl dressing which have sold a thousand style books.

5 It’s a universe of caricatures and hyperbole: harping mothers and neurotic sons; soignee WASP’s nests; and dollhouse-like enclaves untouched by outside realities, but mired in moral questions about love, character, mortality and fidelity.

6 She would look a little more picturesque than most girls of her age, and she was certainly a good deal more soignee than many, and she had the Frenchwoman's knack of putting on her clothes.
