Velvet Revolution: the new Nancy Mac Collection: the Sable Midi Dress in silk velvet

Velvet is taking centre stage, with jewel-toned dresses: so ladylike at Prada, alluring at Dries Van Noten—and designer label Nancy Mac, reviewed here in their latest Collection. This designer adds Italian edge and bold colour to the new mood in dresses which, vintage inspired, are sweeping in a whole new aesthetic. Here, in a great, figure-flattering shape, is the jewel-toned peacock velvet—a stunning dress from Nancy Mac.

Designers returned to opulence on the catwalks and velvet took centre stage along with sleek silks and lace. Jewel-toned dresses in particular are the leaders of many a collection: so ladylike at Prada, alluring at Dries Van Noten—and designer label Nancy Mac, reviewed here. This designer adds Italian edge and bold colour to the new mood in dresses which, vintage inspired, are sweeping in a whole new aesthetic.

The collection is inspired by English roots and Italian style—none of which is surprising given the personalities involved: the sisters behind the Nancy Mac label are English, living between Italy and the UK and using their designs to express personality and emotion.
