Velour Autumn/Winter 2010 Collection – A First Look

Selectism have a first look at the AW’10 offering from Velour. “First things first; Duffle coats aren’t going anywhere. They’ve been back on the style scene for a while (which is what people mean when they say ’so and so has made a comeback’) and, if Velour’s version is anything to go by, they’re only going to get better. Aside from the shirting we previewed earlier, there’s a boatload of crewneck jumpers (our favourite kind), chinos and coats built to take a beating.”
