Red two-piece sets with a skirt or with pants
Our red two piece set comes three ways. There’s a cropped top with a pencil skirt for going out, and there are two zip hoodies with pants for the days in between. In Britain you’d call any of them a red co ord set.
The scuba top with a pencil skirt
This is the dressy one. Both pieces are sewn from red scuba, a dense smooth knit. The top is cropped with a round neck, and the skirt is a pencil cut. After a ride in the car scuba still looks neat, and you’ll hardly ever iron it. A short cool wash is enough.
Where would you wear it? A party, a restaurant, a date. In summer we’d put it with heeled sandals. When it’s cooler, bring in nude tights and ankle boots, and drape a black blazer across your shoulders. Red leads here, so keep the jewelry small and gold. The pencil skirt hugs the hips, and that’s why the size follows whichever is bigger on you, bust or hips.
You can split it up. The top goes with black trousers, and the skirt with a white shirt works for the office.
Two red hoodie sets, one velvet and one jersey
The velvet set is the soft one, in a fabric you may know as velour. It has a zip hoodie with long sleeves and matching pants, and the pile keeps the red deep. We’d wear it on a fall walk, on a trip out of town, or at home when friends come over for the holidays. White sneakers and a black leather jacket are all it needs. Tie your hair back so the hood lies flat. On a cool spring day, a straight coat goes over it.
The jersey set is lighter. It’s a two-thread knit that gives a little, so it’s easy to move in. The hoodie zips, the pants fit close, and the hood helps on a windy waterfront. Warm spring days and cool summer evenings suit it best, and in winter it turns into a bright set for home. Hips decide the size here, since the pants are cut close.
So which red two piece set is yours? If you want heels, take the skirt. If you want sneakers, take a hoodie.
Frequently asked questions
Is a red co ord set too bright for daytime?
Not with white. A white tee and white sneakers calm the hoodie sets down, and a plain black or white bag keeps things simple.
Can I wear the hoodie and the pants apart?
Yes. The zip hoodie goes over a white tee with jeans. Pair the pants with a plain sweatshirt when you’re heading out fast.
What if I’m between two sizes?
Send your measurements to our manager. All three are sewn in XS to XL. Our S is a US 4, more or less.
Where can I see other colors and sets?
Start with all matching sets. Hoodie fans can open red sweatsuits or velour tracksuits, and evening looks are under sets for going out.
