Hailey Baldwin Just Wore Next Season's Big Trend, and It's Only June

Hailey Baldwin does the whole leggings and crop top thing just as well as her peers and super pals Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner, but she often pulls something quite unexpected out of the bag when it comes to stepping outside the realm of athleisure.
Case in point: this army-green velvet party dress worn (surprisingly easily) by day with patent ankle boots, layered necklaces and a jumbo pair of aviators. We wouldn't have thought to dig out our sumptuous after-dark frocks for the festive season in June, but when you consider how important velvet is for A/W 16, it starts to make complete sense. She's simply being ahead of the schedule.
So if you're looking for a mid-week refresh on your closet, scroll down to see how Hailey mixes eveningwear into her downtime wardrobe, then keep going to shop the look.
On Hailey Baldwin: Vatanika Silk Velvet Dress (£320); Saint Laurent Classic 11 Aviator Sunglasses (£210).
Similar styles: KG Kurt Geiger Strut Ankle Boots (£160)
