Kate and Lila Moss Just Styled a Forgotten Fashion Trend That Is Ageless, Chic and Due a Revival
If both Kate and Lila Moss step out in an upcoming trend, it won't be long until I'm searching for it myself. Both seen in France's fashion capital for a series of Paris Fashion Week appointments, the two models styled an autumn trend that's been flying under the radar for the past few months. Wearing the rich, decadent and cold-weather-ready velvet fashion trend, the pair reminded me that they're both regarded as modern trendsetters for very good reason.
Wearing their velvet garments to very different effects, the mother-and-daughter duo let their personal styles shine through. Lila took a moodier approach to her outfit, pairing her velvet trousers with a leather jacket, black almond-toe boots and a suede bag. By styling her velvet trousers with other heavy fabrics like suede and leather, Lila brought out the plush and lavish energy of the fabric, creating a rich-looking outfit that could see her well into the winter months. Taking a lighter approach to her velvet styling, Kate paired her velvet jacket with a sheer floral dress in a light, fresh colour palette.
It looks like it won't be long until we're all styling the re-emerging trend, too. Bringing it back to the fore, the A/W 24 runways indulged in the luxurious fabric, with supple suiting at Dior, decadent dresses at Giorgio Armani Privé and sculptural silhouettes at Ashi Studio—all laden in velvet.
Between Kate teaching us how to style the trend during these early autumn days and Lila showing us a winter-ready approach, the two have certainly affirmed that velvet deserves a place in your 2024 wardrobe.
