THE 'HEADLINE' SILHOUETTE BY COMMON HOURS

COMMON HOURS unveils the 'Headline' dress—an oversized gold trench silhouette that redefines luxury through a unique blend of art and craftsmanship. This limited-edition piece, with only 20 available worldwide, features a silk blend lamé developed and printed in Como, Italy, adorned with bespoke 1971 vintage newspaper artwork created in-house. The design showcases exaggerated sleeves, a dramatic hem, and a back center split that enhances its silhouette. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the unlined dress features self-binding and French seam finishes.

COMMON HOURS releases collections biannually, each based on thematic exploration. The brand invites wearers to engage with a narrative—a reflection of thoughts and memories woven into each piece. The ethos of COMMON HOURS reflects a twist on contemporary luxury by integrating creative collaborations with artists, authors, and musicians to bring their designs to life. Each piece celebrates artwork and artisanship, with remarkable attention to detail that results in considered, limited-edition garments of the highest quality, each taking countless hours to create.

The luxury fashion market is increasingly captivated by distinctive silhouettes that make bold statements while embodying elegance and sophistication. Oversized and dramatic shapes, like the one exemplified by COMMON HOURS' 'Headline' dress, are gaining traction as they redefine traditional notions of fit and proportion. These silhouettes not only highlight the artistry of design but allow for a sense of individuality and self-expression by creating garments that serve as wearable art.
