The Art of Layering with Rundholz DIP
Layering for summer is an art form in itself. It’s a way to express your creativity, experiment with proportions, and make your wardrobe work harder, all while staying comfortable in shifting temperatures. At House Of Valerie, we’re endlessly inspired by the possibilities of this styling technique, and no one makes us want to play with layers more than Rundholz DIP.
This season, we’re diving into the SS25 Rundholz DIP collection, exploring the textures, shapes, and tones that make this edit a dream for thoughtful layering. From distressed finishes to clever silhouettes, every piece adds something different to the mix. Whether you’re heading out early in the morning or strolling through warm evenings, these combinations are made to move with you.
Let this blog be your guide into creating clever, wearable layers with personality.
Royal Tones & Lightweight Layers
Let’s start with colour. There’s something truly enticing about the depth of royal blue, especially when it’s paired with a tonal neutral, or, for a bolder look, a pop of bright orange. The Rundholz DIP T-shirt in Royal is a great base to build from. This is a versatile piece that’s the perfect base for a range of summer looks, adding depth to every outfit without bulk.
We’d layer this piece with the Rundholz DIP Jacket in Royal over the top. The asymmetrical lines and slightly structured fit give it presence without overpowering. We’d pair this with some neutral trousers for a look that feels relaxed yet considered.
Prefer a statement knit? We love the flowing shape of the Rundholz DIP Knitted Tunic in Ocean. This lightweight piece brings movement and contrast to a number of looks, working beautifully over trousers or layered dresses. It’s a nod to the thoughtful, sculptural feel of Rundholz DIP clothing without trying too hard.
The Denim Base You Didn’t Know You Needed
Every great layering wardrobe needs solid foundations. The Rundholz DIP Trouser in Bleachwash has quickly become one of our top recommendations. Oversized, with a relaxed drop-crotch fit and bleached effect, these balance clean structure with a distressed edge.
These trousers play well with everything: graphic prints, oversized knits, cropped shirts, and even tailoring. You could wear them with the Royal Dip T-shirt to add a bold splash of colour, or layer a longline shirt for some subtle asymmetry. When paired with a linen coat or sleeveless knit, they become a staple in your ladies designerwear rotation.
We’re calling it now – this is a seasonless trouser, and the perfect grounding piece for building your Rundholz DIP wardrobe upon.
Print Focus: The Statement Coat
Layering doesn’t always need to be about the base. Sometimes, it’s the outermost piece that steals the show - and one of our favourites for SS25 is the Rundholz DIP Coat in Denim Print. With the right balance of texture, tone and detail, this lightweight coat pairs perfectly with a wide range of colours and pieces, making it a staple item for your ladies designerwear collection.
With its oversized proportions and contemporary denim print, this coat is a must for summer layering. Wear it open over simple silhouettes or button it up over a tunic and cropped trousers. Unsure of colour pairings? We love to pair this with neutral tones or pops of brighter colours, such as orange, as a nod to the harbour worker theme of the season.
When working with a bold print, it’s helpful to keep the rest of your outfit more muted - that doesn’t mean shying away from colour. Instead, let the print do the talking and pair it with solid pieces to avoid a pattern clash. If you're browsing designer ladies fashion online and want a true head-turner, this is the one.
A Modern Neutral: The Cult Trouser
You know when you find a pair of trousers that just work with everything? For us, that’s the Rundholz DIP Trouser in Greige. A quiet favourite at House Of Valerie, this style is fast becoming a staple in the world of ladies designerwear.
The drop-crotch silhouette makes them a dream for pairing with cropped sweaters and trainers for a more casual look, or heels and tailored jackets for evening wear. You could pair these with a tunic or longline shirt, or build contrast with a structured vest or waistcoat. We love the greige tone, as this allows you to experiment with different colours, working off a neutral base to create a number of summer looks.
Distressed Layers with Edge
There’s a strength to the distressed pieces from this Rundholz DIP drop – a nod to workwear, reimagined for today. The Distressed Jacket in Greige and the matching Skirt offer endless styling opportunities.
Try pairing the skirt with a crisp cotton shirt and sandals in an alternating colour (we love a pop of royal blue for summertime!), or go full monochrome with the jacket and a neutral tee, such as the Rundholz DIP T-shirt in Greige. It ties the whole look together while referencing the industrial, functional feel of the collection. These t-shirts also work beautifully layered under oversized knits or jackets when the temperatures start to cool off a bit.
