AJ Odudu's M&S blue velvet suit is an A/W must-have
With party season in sight, sumptuous tailoring is here to save your occasion wear dilemmas. Showing us how to perfectly style a suit this autumn/winter, Celebrity Big Brother host AJ Odudu was captured in a teal velvet suit for the M&S: Dress the Nation VIP Premiere last night (10 September).
While velvet suits were once popular in the nineties, this autumn we're seeing a resurgence of the much-loved suit this year, and this time they come in a host of colours.
Rocking nothing other than Marks & Spencer for the event, AJ's beautiful teal look is part of M&S' new fashion range this season, and even better, it's available online right now.
Enjoying the sartorial spotlight this season, we think this glamorous velvet suit would be a wonderful option for a winter wedding or a Christmas party this year - if you're thinking ahead.
Teaming her outfit with minimal gold accessories, AJ Odudu was also pictured with co-host Vernon Kay at the M&S: Dress The Nation VIP premiere.
The pair are set to host the new show this September, which will see ten of Britain's best amateur clothes designers compete to win their dream job as a fashion designer at M&S.
Another celebrity also captured in a chic velvet suit recently was BBC Radio 2 legend Jo Whiley at the Radio 2 in the Park event in Preston last weekend.
The star shared some of her highlights from her time presenting and DJ-ing at the event, including a snap with the well-known boyband Snow Patrol.
Looking effortlessly cool for the occasion, Jo's sophisticated suit is made by the designer french brand Souer, and luckily, we've seen it's available at Selfridges.
Whether you're opting for a high street number or a designer velvet suit, they're guaranteed to be timeless pieces you can wear this autumn/winter and beyond.
M&S: Dress The Nation will air on ITV1 and ITVX on the 17th September at 8pm.
