Styling Guidance

Black velvet has a natural evening quality, so the Saete works well under a midi or knee-length dress for a wedding or formal event. For occasion wear, pair it with a tailored jumpsuit or a fitted trouser suit, letting the gold trim on the vamp add a quiet finishing detail. The ankle strap and platform give a stable base for standing and dancing through an evening, and the black tone pairs easily with jewel shades as well as classic neutrals.

• Colour palette: black, emerald, burgundy, navy, gold
