Earlier in the month, you might remember we brought a handful of expensive-looking colours that were doing the rounds to your attention. This feature encapsulated a chic outfit from Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, which featured a sage green knitted dress, which she styled out with ecru accessories. Now, imagine my delight when, just this week, none other than Kendall Jenner followed in Huntington-Whiteley’s chic footsteps with her very own sage look; a knitted mini dress which she rounded off with Bottega Veneta’s new Andiamo bag.
What struck me most was 1) how little of this colour I’ve seen lately. It’s a shade I consider to be very classic, never driven by trends but somewhat omnipresent in collections each season. And 2) just how expensive it looks and how it loans itself to the quiet luxury aesthetic that is still reigning. Sure, Jenner’s dress may be St Agni while Huntington-Whiteley’s is Khaite but this is one of those rare colours that has a tendency to look premium no matter how much you spend on it. And I have proof.
