Timeless & Elegant - Fashion pieces that will always stay in style!
Timeless fashion is all about creating a wardrobe around pieces that will last you a lifetime. Pieces that are characterised by their endurance, possessing classic and ageless quality.
Here at Shibumi, we don’t follow fashion trends, we believe in high quality garments that are designed with longevity in mind. A clothing item becomes timeless when it retains its style and relevance across various fashion cycles.
Let’s take a look at some of the historically most popular designs and their representation in our collection.

Women’s Blazer
In the constantly changing realm of women's fashion, there is one garment that has stood the test of time and therefore high on our list: the blazer. The 20th century brought a shift in women's fashion, and blazers played a significant role in this transformation. The era was marked by social change, including the suffragette movement and a broader push for women's rights, both of which influenced the way women dressed forever.
Diverse and an essential piece for your wardrobe, the blazer is a practical item that gives you both warmth and confidence whenever you need it.
The blazer is everyone’s ‘go to’ item when we don’t know what to wear. This classic style with an open revere collar is easy to wear. It can be formal or casual, worn with jeans or a dress, work clothes or a date night outfit. We have many designs on offer when it comes to women’s blazers and jackets. Below is our Classic Blazer in Imperial Blue.

Nehru Jacket
The Nehru Jacket has a straight cut with a Mandarin collar that stands up around the neck. Originating in China, the use of high collars in clothing started in the late Ming Dynasty.
It became popular during the 1940s and 1950s and has been named after the first prime minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru. In other cultures, this attire is a symbol of grace and dignity, hence always being popular with Royal figures.
Simple and stylish, designed to be worn open, Shibumi Nehru is the perfect jacket to match with a pair of trousers or jeans. A favourite with women and men, below is our Long Nehru in Antique Gold and Nehru Jacket in Slate.
The Trench Coat
A fashion staple that has truly stood the test of time. Renowned for their versatility and classic appeal, the trench is an investment piece suitable for every season.
Originally designed as a military garment, the belted coat has since transitioned seamlessly into the world of high fashion with its structured silhouette and sophisticated aura. The Trench Coat is our most elegant dress coat that looks the best matched with heels. It can be worn without the belt and it has been designed to be done up, with only something light underneath it. Our trench coats are tailored to perfection, using finest silk or embroidered silk in the most stunning colours such as this Trench Coat in Deep Violet.

The Slip Dress
It was the 90’s that saw the rise of the silk slip dress and it has been a wardrobe essential ever since. The ultimate party wear: simple, elegant and sexy! The slip dress is characterised by its delicate and lightweight fabric, which drapes gracefully over the body. Its simple silhouette and minimalist design make it easy to style for both casual and formal occasions.
We like to pair our satin slip dress with long cashmere coats to create an outfit that oozes elegance with a hint of boho. Ruth is wearing a Shibumi Slip Dress in Champagne with a full length Devi Coat in Imperial Blue. Our customer Verena opted for a Silk Slip Dress in Mint and Devi in Rococo Pink for her daughter's wedding, creating a stunning mother of the bride outfit.

Two Piece Suit
The ultimate symbol of women's empowerment!
Originating from menswear, the two piece suit has evolved to cater for women, with expert tailoring and sophisticated cuts that enhance femininity while exuding confidence and power.
Whether worn in a corporate setting or a formal event, a well-fitted suit can command attention and respect while making a profound fashion statement.
Women’s suits are actually very easy to accessorise; wear a white T-shirt or a silk camisole underneath to master simple elegance.
Below is our elegant silk suit in Deep Violet, a red floral suit in Mode that makes a perfect contemporary office wear, while our customer Deirdre is wearing a Shibumi silk suit in Aubergine for a wedding guest outfit.

Shawls
Shawls and pashminas are practical and functional accessories that are durable and will last for years to come. They can also be a great way to brighten up a neutral wardrobe.
Our floral cashmere shawls with an eye catching design of the tree of life are the perfect timeless piece that will never go out of style. Wear it as a scarf with your favourite silk coat or as a cosy wrap over one of our shift dresses. Our cashmere shawls are reversible and make the perfect gift for her.
