Look of the week: Kate Sylvester’s sweater and skirt combinatio­n

-

A sentimenta­l tribute to her parents’ love, designer Kate Sylvester’s current season collection, entitled “Love Letters”, is a story to warm your soul. Finding a box of hundreds of love letters written between her parents during their courtship in the 1950s, the sweet discovery prompted the designer to pay tribute to that love through her autumn/winter collection, featuring lace-trimmed handkerchi­efs, delicate blouses and the most dramatic double-breasted coat you’ll find this season — the Edie coat — in a plush camel and versatile olive green. For something easy off-duty, consider the soft pairing of a languid skirt and cosy jumper instead.
