The question is, as always, what to wear? Particularly in London, when it's often necessary to glide seamlessly from day to night with barely a moment to spare. You'll be glad to know that we have given this a lot of thought and stocked-up on an armful of luxurious velvet trousers, tops, dresses and coats, which can be dressed up or down in a flash. To finish off the look all you'll need is a clutch, some eye-catching jewellery and spritz of perfume and voilà. 

Aspesi's midnight blue velvet top is fabulously easy to wear and can be worn with casual pants or dressed up with a matching pair of velvet trousers for a luxurious look.

And, if you're wondering what on earth you're going to do with a pair of velvet pants after the party, never fear, they look great with some chunky knitwear and sneakers.

Some customers will prefer a more tailored look, which means opting for Piazza Sempione's sleek, black, velvet cigarette pants. Worn with a blazer and brogues they'll give you a super modern, metropolitan look.

But for those on their way to fabulous functions, we have an absolutely show-stopping, bias cut, velvet dress with a sexy keyhole back. It is our favourite piece in Aspesi's velvet collection and is guaranteed to get you noticed.

As you finish up that last nightcap, you'll want to wrap up in this plush, padded velvet coat in a stunning imperial purple. This luxurious piece is one to treasure ladies.

We're also pleased to announce a new collection of Inge Christopher evening bags, which come in beautiful woven, printed and sparkling finishes. They look a million dollars, but are so well-priced you'll have change to spare for one last cocktail. 

And, to make sure you finish the night looking as good as when you set out, we have stocked up on some sexy French fishnets and super sheer tights. Wear them with your best lingerie and Tess Van Ghert's pearl baubles with diamond pavé pyramid charms for an irresistible finish. Cin cin!
