This week’s edit shows why Mulberry Purple works when nothing else does.

Monochrome Monday: Mulberry Purple

Mulberry purple is not an easy colour to place casually. It tends to carry associations with eveningwear, interiors, and formal accessories, which is where it is most often used. In this week’s Monochrome Monday, the approach is straightforward - keep the colour intact and vary how it appears across fabric, structure, and scale.

Across the selection, the pieces move between occasionwear and more wearable formats without forcing contrast. Omran Osman and Sandra Mansour use it through dresses where fabric and cut define the result. Alaïa and Wear Fold bring it into footwear and tailoring, while Mesh-Mesh, Laila Wahba and Mulberry handle it through accessories. Daar Dahlia introduces a lighter separate to balance the heavier materials.
