How to adopt layering the MAEVY way

1.   The key point: the interplay of materials

It all starts with touch. Combining a soft knit with fluid viscose , or a lightweight shirt with a textured vest , creates a balance between comfort and style. At MAEVY, each fabric is chosen for its suppleness , so that every piece feels delicate against the skin.

The secret: alternate textures, never thicknesses.

2.   The art of volumes

Successful layering is about following the body's contours without restricting it . A flowing dress slipped under an oversized sweater , a sleeveless jacket that accentuates the waist, or a shirt worn open over a fitted top.

The idea: never “pile up”, but compose a harmony of forms. 

3.   The tones that respond to each other

At MAEVY, color is experienced as an emotion. Playing with similar shades maintains a cohesive look while showcasing the richness of the materials. Embracing layering also means knowing how to blend hues.

Tip: do not contrast, but rather layer the shades of the same palette , so that each piece extends the previous one.

At MAEVY , layering is conceived in terms of fluidity and simplicity .
Start with a lightweight base layer , then add a more enveloping piece . Each layer should provide comfort and movement, without stiffness or restriction.

When layered correctly, it instantly adds depth and character to an outfit. It's that little something extra that effortlessly transforms a simple look into a polished silhouette. Layering is about playing with lengths, proportions, and textures to create a modern and balanced look. Layering allows you to express your personality, adapt to the seasons, and create different looks with the same pieces. It's a simple way to add style without overdoing it.
