From decadent black tie balls to chic cocktails, Favourbrook
has velvet eveningwear for all occasions, writes Jemima Wilson
Founded by Oliver Spencer in 1993,
Favourbrook is London’s most prominent
purveyor of occasionwear, specialising in
elegant yet striking attire for evening soirees,
weddings and glamorous days at the races.
From the sport of kings to the game
of kings, the world of polo offers many
reasons to dress up, and Favourbrook’s
Autumn/Winter velvet eveningwear will
see you stand out from the crowd.
Fascinated by fabrics, Spencer, who went on
to set up his eponymous menswear label in
2002, started dabbling in textiles when he
was at art school. Having experimented with
using everything from ecclesiastical cloths
to woven silks, his pieces are still made from
the finest and most innovative materials,
with a focus on sumptuous velvet.
The velvet Chaucer Jacket is an ideal
blend of a house coat and a dinner jacket,
combining satin shawl lapels with matching
satin gauntlet cuffs and patch pockets, and
is equally at home dressed up or down.
Another contemporary update to the
collection is the Recycled Cashmere Dinner
Suit made from fabric manufactured in
Portuguese mills at the forefront of
sustainable production. Not only is it
smart, it benefits the environment too.
