Layering Luxury: How to Stay Stylish in Winter
Winter dressing doesn’t have to mean sacrificing style for warmth. At One Hundred Stars, we believe in layering luxury pieces to create outfits that are both cosy and undeniably elegant. With the right fabrics, cuts, and combinations, your winter wardrobe can be a showcase of timeless style and sustainable sophistication.
1. Start with the Foundation: Luxurious Base Layers
A perfectly layered outfit begins with the base. Think silk camisoles, jersey t-shirts, or our soft blouses like our Pussy Bow Blouses. These pieces provide warmth without bulk and act as the canvas for your layered look. Choosing high-quality, breathable fabrics ensures you stay comfortable even under multiple layers.

2. Add a Middle Layer: Texture and Shape
The middle layer is where you can play with texture and silhouette. A Wool Kimono, Oversized Shirt, or lightweight Throwover adds both warmth and visual interest. Our luxurious kimonos are ideal for winter layering – they drape beautifully over base layers while adding a statement of sophistication.
Tip: Experiment with asymmetry, oversized proportions, or unexpected fabric combinations to elevate even simple outfits.

3. Outerwear: Statement and Function
A winter outfit isn’t complete without a standout outer layer. Tailored coats, structured Velvet Jackets, or long-line Velvet Grande Kimonos in rich fabrics can be both functional and eye-catching. Opt for neutral or autumnal tones like deep reds, burnt oranges, or classic deep blues to create versatile outfits that complement your existing wardrobe.

4. Accessorise with Intention
Luxury layering isn’t just about clothing! Accessories elevate your outfit and add practical warmth. Scarves in soft sustainable modal or wool, Quilted Velvet Kiss lock Bags and Velvet Tote Bags, and leather boots are the perfect finishing touches. A well-chosen accessory can transform a layered outfit from functional to fashion-forward.

5. Mix and Match with Confidence
The magic of layering is the ability to mix textures, lengths, and styles. Pair an A-Line Skirt with one of our Pussy Bow Blouses or under a Wool Kimono. Throw a Poplin Pyjama shirt under a Velvet Grande coat for a chic, unexpected look. The key is to balance comfort, warmth, and elegance, creating ensembles that reflect your personal style while embracing the season.
