Editors’ Notes

Johnny Was’ Velvet Shirt Dress in ‘Blackberry’ marries vintage-inspired elegance with modern ease. Crafted from a sumptuous rayon-silk velvet, this button-front silhouette features a classic pointed collar and falls just below the knee. Intricate, multicoloured embroidery in paisley and floral motifs cascades across the front and sleeves, creating a vibrant contrast against the rich, jewel-toned base. Wear it belted for defined shape or loose for relaxed sophistication, it will be equally chic with ankle boots by day or heeled mules for evening.
