Monochrome Monday: The Plum Caspia Edition

If purple was once the colour of kings, Plum Caspia is its contemporary heir—less pomp, more polish. Historically a symbol of power and luxury, purple gained its prestige from the rarity of its dye. Today, Plum Caspia reimagines that legacy through a moody, refined lens: rich, wearable, and quietly commanding.

Sitting somewhere between violet and dusty mauve, the shade carries weight without overwhelming. It adapts seamlessly—equally at home in sculptural silhouettes, soft knits, or standout accessories. Whether layered for day or styled for evening, Plum Caspia invites elegance with a modern edge.

This Monochrome Monday, we spotlight a curated selection of standout pieces that embrace this cooler, more enigmatic side of purple—from flowing kaftans and architectural bags to high-shine stilettos and fluid silks.

Faded plum with an art-school edge, this boxy tee features hand-painted typography and an oversized fit for effortless cool.

Sekhmet | The Ubaste Shoulder Bag In Purple

Architectural and compact, this sharp leather bag in deep plum feels like wearable sculpture.

Nora Al Shaikh | Purple Embroidered Kaftan

Minimalist yet ornate, this floor-length kaftan in dusty violet is defined by clean lines and delicate sleeve embroidery.

Duha World | BB in Ultra Violet

Glossy, angular stilettos that bring bold structure in saturated violet—equal parts drama and design.

Oud Paris | Kurt Dress

Playful meets sculptural: this plum mini’s gathered shape brings a soft intensity and a perfect tailored contrast.
