Dark tailoring

Dark tailoring is the backbone of Dahlia's wardrobe: blazers with something wrong with them, in the best way. Pleated sleeves, leather pocket flaps, belts where a button should be, trousers cut wide enough to walk into a casino like you own it. Mostly black, sometimes charcoal, occasionally a colour that behaves like black. These are the looks for dinners, events and any night that starts late; most of them work in autumn and winter, a few cut sleeveless for spring.
