Velvet That Turns Simple Trousers Into Something Considered
Your black trousers have been waiting for this.
Velvara is a soft velvet turtleneck with a row of buttons that cascades diagonally across the front, drawing the eye in a line nobody else at the table will have.
It feels plush against your skin and warm at the neck, without the bulk of a heavy sweater.
You put it on, you look finished. That's the whole morning handled.
Cut close through the bust and waist, with velvet knit that stretches as you move.
A distinctive detail that makes getting dressed feel easy
✓ Cozy without the bulk
Plush velvet knit keeps your neck and arms warm, but it lies close to the body. You stay warm under a coat instead of fighting for room.
✓ The detail nobody else is wearing
Most velvet tops are a plain pullover. The asymmetric buttons give you an artistic line down the front — the kind of detail people notice but can't quite place.
✓ Moves with you all day
The velvet knit has real stretch, so you can reach, drive, and sit through a long lunch without tugging anything back into place.
✓ Four colors, all easy to wear
Each one pairs with the trousers and jeans already in your closet. Nothing new to buy around it.

Frequently asked questions
Are the diagonal buttons functional or just decorative?
They're a design detail, stitched securely in place along the front. The top goes on over your head, so there's nothing to fasten or fuss with.
Will the turtleneck feel too warm indoors?
It's a single knit layer, not a thick sweater, so it breathes better than most turtlenecks. Most women find it comfortable from morning through evening without overheating.
Does velvet pill or lose its sheen over time?
Washed cold and hung to dry, the pile stays smooth and keeps its soft shine. Skip the dryer — heat is what flattens velvet.
Can I dress this up for an evening out?
Yes. With dark trousers and a pair of earrings it reads as evening; with jeans it reads as weekend. The velvet does most of the work either way.

Use the fit finder next to the size selector for a recommendation in a few seconds, or see the full measurement charts below.
Every product page has a fit finder next to the size selector — three questions, one recommendation, a few seconds. These charts are for anyone who would rather read the numbers.
How to measure
- Bust / chest. Around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed at your sides.
- Waist. Around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel.
- Hips. Around the fullest part, roughly 8 in below the waist.
- Inseam. From the crotch seam to the floor, in the shoes you'll wear the trousers with.
Measure over the underwear you'd normally wear, not over clothing. Keep the tape snug but not tight.

How our pieces are cut
- Dresses are cut true to size. If you are between sizes, take the smaller one — most of our dresses have ease through the waist.
- Coats and jackets are cut with room for a knit underneath. Take your usual size; size up only if you layer heavily.
- Knitwear is relaxed by design. Between sizes, take the smaller one unless you want an oversized look.
- Trousers and jeans run true to size. Between sizes, take the larger one.
- Shoes run true to size. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up.
