House of Fraser hosted a special preview of the legendary label Biba at No Name this week. Biba is just one of many new labels to the Dundrum department store and the launch was an exciting occasion for fashion lovers. Among the guests were Bairbre Power, Anne Boylan, Sarah Morrissey, aisling Farinella and Joanne Mackey.

The House of Fraser show kicked off with traffic stopping outfits from the Biba collection. Chloe Arnold wore a show stopping backless velvet column dress, which is the statement dress of the season and will be available in both black and blood red. Biba’s first story for the winter season is “Luxe”, the story focuses on fine details and fabrications of velvet, brocade and lurex in signature colours of gold, black and bronze.

Season essentials include the mid-length Military coat, detailed with gold Biba buttons and the tailored wide leg trouser suit in charcoal grey. Marabou jackets in vintage pink and black are the perfect cover up for nights out while relaxed tailored jackets in black velvet bring effortless glamour to any look for that special occasion.
