Ladies Who Lounge

Ladies Who Lounge

Velvet and silk - two fabrics that whisper luxury and command attention. This Christmas season, they’re taking centre stage in the form of our lounge jackets and blazers, the ultimate nod to timeless glamour, and a decidedly sophisticated way to approach eveningwear, too. Whether you’re hosting an intimate soirée or heading to an elegant festive dinner, these pieces are the modern woman’s answer to eveningwear that feels as comfortable as it looks stunning. Favourbrook’s collection offers exquisite options that channel old-world charm with a contemporary twist.



The Victoriana Jacket: Dramatic Sophistication

The Victoriana Jacket in Black & Gold Nene Silk Velvet is an absolute showstopper. Its ornate design calls for equally sophisticated styling, so pair it with the Black Plain Georgette Palazzo Pants to balance the drama of the jacket’s intricate detailing. Opt for a sleek silk camisole underneath to keep the silhouette light and let the jacket remain the star. Finish the look with black satin heels and bold gold jewellery, like statement earrings or a cuff bracelet.

 
 
 

The Library Jacket: Modern Le Smoking

Yves Saint Laurent’s iconic Le Smoking tuxedo made waves in the 1960s as a daring yet elegant alternative to evening gowns. The Library Jacket in Black Clyde Silk Velvet carries the same spirit of empowerment and grace. Style it with the Lounge Trousers in Black Silk Velvet for a monochromatic ensemble that’s endlessly chic, or use contrast to your advantage and pair it with our sequin oyster Lounge Trousers. A silk blouse with a high neck or a lace camisole adds a touch of femininity beneath the structured tailoring. Keep accessories sharp - a sleek clutch bag and a pair of high-heeled pumps work beautifully.

 
 
 

The Lounge Jacket: Versatile Glamour

Favourbrook’s velvet Lounge Jackets offers the perfect mix of elegance and versatility. It's ideal for more casual festive gatherings, especially when paired with tailored trousers or a flowing midi skirt. For a softer, festive palette, try one with the Black Plain Georgette Palazzo Pants for an outfit that’s polished yet relaxed. Accessorize with delicate jewellery - think pearls or dainty gold chains - and finish with heeled ankle boots for a modern touch. If the temperature dips, drape a luxurious wool cape or faux fur stole over your shoulders.
