Permanence in Motion: The Grand Prix Edit
As Melbourne transitions from late summer ease into the heightened rhythm of the Grand Prix, the wardrobe shifts in parallel. Structure returns. Layers deepen. Colour settles into earthy restraint.
The Grand Prix Edit translates the discipline of the circuit into a trans-seasonal uniform grounded in precision tailoring, premium wool knitwear and sculptural leather.
This is autumn fashion defined not by trend, but by authority of form.
Engineered Utility
Tailoring anchors the collection with clarity. Structured wool blazers and crepe trousers
establish composure through proportion rather than embellishment, while measured colour blocking introduces movement without excess.
A new icon emerges in the form of the Whitethorn Jacket, a sculptural funnel-neck silhouette designed for trackside presence. Architectural and exacting in cut, it reflects performance dressing without spectacle, balancing utility with refinement.
Denim remains integral to the narrative. The Dolly Jean, made in Melbourne, reinforces VIKTORIA & WOODS’ commitment to Australian craftsmanship and material traceability. Structured yet understated, it grounds the edit in permanence. This is engineered utility expressed through precision silhouette.
Sculptural Motion
Leather becomes both foundation and focal point. The V&W signature set is reimagined in full leather, a modern uniform expressed through strength and refinement. Cut with clarity and crafted from ethical leather, it embodies sustainable luxury through longevity rather than excess.
Bustiers and corsetry long synonymous with VIKTORIA & WOODS return in sculpting
power mesh. Rendered in chocolate and scarlet, these silhouettes introduce controlled structure beneath tailoring, reinforcing discipline while maintaining fluidity.
The collection embraces refined offset dressing balancing sculptural statement pieces with enduring foundations. A leather jacket layered over the Idol Pant, or a power mesh bustier paired back with the Pilot Pant, creates contrast without complication. It is this interplay between structure and ease that defines the modern autumn wardrobe.
Luxury layering is considered rather than excessive. Each garment integrates seamlessly within the wardrobe system designed to pair back effortlessly with core pieces already worn and relied upon.
Permanence in Form
Heavy-weight knits and premium wool compositions introduce depth and tactility. The Cassius Knit, a refined evolution of the Haven Poncho and Holiday Cape, appears in a new knitted merino wool-linen fabrication. Draped over tailoring or layered against denim, it softens the silhouette while maintaining structure.
Earthy tones and deep autumnal hues ground the palette, reinforcing a restrained aesthetic suited to the Australian season.
Across the edit, material integrity remains central from premium wool knitwear to responsibly sourced leather and Melbourne-made denim. Sustainability signals are woven quietly throughout, expressed through fabrication, traceability and enduring design rather than declaration.
As the atmosphere of the event recedes, what remains is wardrobe permanence.
Made with Intention
