Colour Focus: Warm Sand
SS25 is shifting towards subtle luxury, and at House Of Valerie, we’re seeing one particular neutral leading the charge: warm sand.
Think soft beige with gorgeous golden undertones, an earthy shade that simply radiates calm, warmth and sophistication, without overwhelming your current wardrobe.
It’s the ultimate calming neutral, perfect for complementing your collection in a way that feels both grounded and refined.
At our clothes shop in Nantwich, it’s safe to say that we’ve embraced warm sand with open arms. From the raw, distressed elegance of SANCTAMUERTE clothing to the minimalist charm of SORT AARHUS, this season’s neutral makes its presence felt. Ready to explore? Let’s take a deep dive into how this versatile hue is defining ladies' designer wear for SS25.
Sandshell: Weathered Elegance from SANCTAMUERTE
One of the most exciting interpretations of Warm Sand this season comes from SANCTAMUERTE. Their Sandshell colourway captures the essence of effortless style with a raw, lived-in edge. This shade balances natural appeal with a touch of urban cool, making it ideal for layering and contrast dressing for a wide range of occasions.
The SANCTAMUERTE Jacket in Sandshell is, in our opinion, the epitome of laid-back luxury. Designed with an oversized fit and frayed edges, it offers a modern twist on classic linen.
The collared neckline and button-down front add structure, while the long sleeves and practical front pockets make it both stylish and functional.
For a complete look, pair it with the SANCTAMUERTE Wide Leg Trousers. These feature a layered silk-mix design that drapes effortlessly, making them perfect for relaxed evenings or styled up with heeled sandals for a night out.
If you’re looking for something lighter, the SANCTAMUERTE Blouse is your go-to. Made from semi-sheer fabric, it features long sleeves, a boxy shape, and delicate frayed details that add character.
The hand-made imperfections are a deliberate feature, showcasing the artisanal quality of the piece. Pair it with jeans for casual days, or, for something a bit more formal, tailored trousers.
Looking for another Sandshell piece to covet? The SANCTAMUERTE Dress offers a real sense of sophistication, complete with balloon shaping, round neckline, and silk-mix hem. This dress is perfect for those days when you want to feel put together, without sacrificing comfort.
We are loving the SANCTAMUERTE Top in Sandshell. Its relaxed fit, long sleeves, and delicate frayed hem make it a versatile staple. The lightweight, semi-sheer fabric drapes beautifully, offering just enough structure for a polished, effortless look. This piece works particularly well when styled with the wide-leg trousers for a full, flowy silhouette.
Malto: A True Sand Tone from SORT AARHUS
Next up, we’re introducing Malto from SORT AARHUS. This sand tone is rich, slightly deeper than Sandshell, and brings an undeniable warmth to any outfit. SORT AARHUS balances earthy minimalism with modern tailoring, and Malto exemplifies this harmony.
The Elsa Knitted Tunic is a prime example of versatile summer wear that you’ll be reaching for time and time again. Its lightweight linen-mix fabric, slash neckline, and dropped back hemline make it a staple for both casual and dressy occasions. For a coordinating look, layer this over the Estella Trousers - cropped, wide-leg, and featuring ribbed hemlines. The elasticated waistband ensures comfort, while the structured cut keeps the look sophisticated.
If you prefer a more tailored silhouette, the Arcelia Leather Top is a standout. This fitted leather piece features short sleeves and button fastenings, creating a structured yet breathable look. Pair it with the SORT AARHUS Almira Leather Trousers for a bold, modern ensemble that feels both edgy and refined.
If you’ve been searching for the ultimate neutral layering piece for the season, the Esmeralda Pullover could be the one, with its wide sleeves and lightweight knit. This piece is the perfect companion for cooler summer evenings, offering a touch of luxury without sacrificing comfort. Whether worn with leather trousers for contrast or paired with flowing linen, it’s a piece you’ll wear all season long.
Sandshell: Whisper-Soft Sophistication from LA VACA LOCA
Moving into lighter territory, LA VACA LOCA presents their take on Warm Sand with a shade almost as pale as parchment. This ethereal tone feels effortlessly soft, creating silhouettes that are both dreamy and wearable.
The Celia Jumpsuit is a beautiful example - a mid-length cotton voile design with a deep V-neckline. There’s also a matching belt available that cinches the waist, offering a feminine silhouette perfect for brunches or garden parties. For a more fluid shape, the Krikelo Trousers deliver with their extremely wide-leg cut and distressed dye.
If you’re looking for top options, the Auto Top, with its relaxed fit and raw edges, adds texture to any outfit. We’d pair this with the lovely Lilia Trousers - again, super wide leg, super on trend - complete with an elasticated waistband for a comfortable yet chic ladies' designerwear ensemble.
Grezzo: Understated Luxury from MAMA B
Last but certainly not least, we have Grezzo from MAMA B, which offers a muted, neutral take on Warm Sand. Ideal for building capsule wardrobes, Grezzo is incredibly versatile and effortlessly stylish.
The Lucido Dress in this shade is a summer staple, featuring a V-neckline and cap sleeves that lend a touch of elegance to the relaxed fit. For those cooler days, the Refil L Pullover offers a lightweight linen mix with dropped shoulders and a stepped hemline. Style it over the Pollo L Trousers for a matching look, or mix with contrasting shades for a bit of edge.
For ladies looking for a statement piece, the Veloce D Jacket is the perfect example. Its peplum hemline and button fastening create a structured silhouette.
