1. The Velvet Suit
As menswear influences make their entrance into AW18, we’re calling upon soft-touch velvets to lend traditionally masculine silhouettes something that feels more in the line with the new season. Comprising a classic blazer and tapered trousers, this two-piece is designed in plush burgundy, and comes softly-tailored for an androgynous feel. Style over a simple cami and black velvet accessories for after-dark opulence.
2. The Velvet Dress
This season, the velvet dress has undergone a renaissance. Crafted in mustard yellow and detailed with an asymmetric hemline, this sumptuous midi offers a fashion-forward alternative to the fitted, jewel-toned velvet dresses that we know and love. For evening invites, keep legs bare and wear with a pair of heels.
3. The Velvet Kimono
The simplest way to go from desk to dinner? Look no further than a statement kimono. Decadent in velvet devoré, this long-line design is patterned with peacocks and roses in rich colour palettes, and is finished with a wrap-around tie on the waist to create a form-flattering fit. Layer over camis and denim for a look that’ll translate easily from nine till nine.
