The festive season is a time for social bedlam, mince pies and cocktails, and that one relative who always takes charades far too seriously. But while the holiday spirit thrives on a little chaos, your wardrobe doesn’t have to. This Christmas, let Favourbrook’s velvet coats, jackets, and silk dresses take the stress out of dressing up, leaving you to focus on more important things (like drinking that Puligny-Montrachet you've been saving while your other half takes care of lunch).
Velvet is the ultimate festive fabric - sumptuous, tactile, and unapologetically indulgent. A velvet blazer brings just the right amount of drama to a pre-Christmas dinner or Boxing Day drinks with friends, paired with cropped tailored trousers for a chic party ensemble. Meanwhile, a long velvet coat offers both glamour and practicality, perfect for sweeping into the room like the protagonist of your very own Christmas rom-com. Festive tones such as forest green and cherry red work perfectly, but be mindful of wearing them together, lest you want to look like a holly bush.
