As the days shorten and evenings draw in, velvet takes its turn in the spotlight. Plush, tactile, and irresistibly elegant, it’s the fabric that captures the shift in season - rich in texture yet soft and comfortable to wear. Velvet has a way of transforming the simplest silhouette into something extraordinary, whether you’re dressing for cosy gatherings, autumn weddings, or the first of the festive celebrations. This season, embrace velvet as your go-to fabric for comfort, glamour, and a little everyday indulgence.



WHY VELVET, WHY NOW?

Velvet is autumn’s signature fabric for good reason. With its subtle sheen and soft drape, it brings instant depth and sophistication to your wardrobe. Stylecamp’s velvet is made with stretch, meaning it feels as effortless as your favourite jersey while looking infinitely more refined. It’s luxurious without being fussy, versatile enough for day-to-night styling, and flattering on every shape.


This is why velvet season is so special: it’s the moment when comfort meets glamour, giving you the freedom to feel both relaxed and perfectly put together.



THE VELVET CO-ORDS

Mix-and-match crop tops and skirts for versatile day-to-night style.

Playful yet sophisticated, Stylecamp’s velvet co-ords are made to mix and match. Off-shoulder or strappy crop tops pair beautifully with pencil or skater skirts, creating silhouettes that balance vintage glamour with modern ease. Wear them together for a head-turning look, or style the separates with denim, tailoring, or knitwear for everyday chic. It’s velvet dressing at its most versatile - flirty, flattering, and endlessly adaptable.

THE LOMBARD DRESS

The velvet showpiece - timeless, flattering, unforgettable.

If ever a piece captured the drama of velvet, it’s the Lombard dress. With its elegant lines and figure-skimming fit, this design turns heads without trying. Comfortable enough to wear all night, yet polished enough for weddings, dinners, or parties, it’s the ultimate occasionwear staple. A dress to make an entrance in, and one you’ll return to season after season.

THE VELVET LOUNGE SET

Relaxed silhouettes with an opulent edge



For those who love the ease of a two-piece, the Myrna wrap top and Hepburn trousers bring a refined elegance to velvet season. Worn together, they create a striking alternative to a dress, equally suited to cocktails, theatre trips, or evening soirées. Separately, they’re just as versatile: the wrap top layered with a skirt or jeans for day-to-night dressing, the trousers styled simply with a cami or knit for effortless drama. This pairing doubles as the ultimate lounge set too - relaxed, luxurious, and made for evenings when you want comfort without sacrificing style.

Velvet doesn’t have to stop at clothing. Stylecamp’s playful accessories - from the sculptural Lola turban hat that keeps off the seasonal chill to the matching pet bow tie that lets your furry friend join the occasion - bring a touch of velvet luxe into every corner of life. Perfect as gifts or finishing touches, they’re a reminder that velvet glamour is as much about fun as it is about sophistication.
