London Fashion Week is five days of non-stop movement. Navigating the city, looking stylish and being comfortable for a whole day of shows are all key. A good trench or light wrap coat, during early fall in London, are key staples – not too warm, not too cold – just right. Acknowleding the lush resurgence of velvet this season, I thought I would just mix the two with this divine, velvet, wrap coat from LuisaViaRoma.com
Since, moving to London almost six year (wow, I can’t believe its been that long!) I have gained such a huge appreciation and passion for British fashion, as well as, International emerging brands. European retailers and online retailers like LuisaViaRoma.com have introduced me to some of my “current crush” designers like Marco di Vicenzo and Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, while stocking more of these Italian brands pieces than other sites.
More recently, this season, with my mad velvet craze I have encountered the lush brand, Attico on LVR, whose dresses are this winter’s, dinner party dream. As well as, wrap-coat master, Tagliatore 0205 which makes this red, red, wine, velvet trench (and, anyone who knows me well, knows I love my wine!)
