Black is the new black, right? So Viridi-Anne’s latest collection encompasses this latest obsession with slightly grungey and oversized clothing, using merely bold black tones to accentuate form, rather than extreme pattern and colour.
The most notable garment within the collection is the ‘slouch pant’, which is frequently teamed with a shirt and tie to create a contrasting and obscure concept surrounding the idea of teaming smart and casual together. These trousers hang elegantly from the male form and toy with the idea of ‘effortless fashion.’
Of course, the collection does include other colours, including shades of olive/cream, grey and navy- sticking to a neutral palette. Layering is an interesting trend within Viridi-Anne’s A/W 13 collection; it is all about discovering garments beneath garments that compliment one another. Scarves and hats accessorize the clothing to help form an ethos throughout. The designs look very high fashion and suggest exclusivity, but quite contrastingly, elements of attainability and accessible fashion are proposed within some of the garments.
Offering a smart casual alternative to jeans and a smart jacket, these outfits are appropriate for anyone hoping to catch attention for their bold fashion choices.
