Glimpse: Velocity Top

Sometimes a design goes as planned, starting as a well thought out idea and becoming exactly what was initially envisioned by the designer. Sometimes a loose concept can be transformed into something unexpected when a designer discovers a fabric, a colour, a pattern, or a piece of hardware that provides the final push of inspiration, the missing piece that was needed to create something brilliant.

The Victory & Vice Velocity top began as a good idea, create a garment that is loose, comfortable, slightly casual, that still appears clean and sharp and makes the wearer feel sexy and confident. The slouchy top went through stages of experimentation, becoming slightly deconstructed with the exposed grosgrain ribbon detail. It wasn't until Victory & Vice fell head over heels for the perfect hardware, sleek, square and silver, that the garment transformed into the chic cinched top pictured below.
