Velvet, the ‘in’ fabric that you may have rocked back in the Nineties is back bigtime for Autumn Winter 2016. Valentino, Sonia Rykiel and Erdem all had velvet in their repetoire including tailored suits which you could wear for a (glam) day outfit or eveningwear.
Penneys have nailed it with a navy velvet suit, worn recently by Pippa O’Connor and as seen below on blogger Rebecca Rose.
I just bought the jacket from the suit myself last week and can atest that it is fabulous! The trousers are a mere €16 and the velvet blazer is €23.
